Should You Start or Sit Dallas Goedert in Week 2?
Dallas Goedert posting a 35% target share (including the first target of the season) for the defending champs certainly wasn’t on my Week 1 bingo card, but here we are.
I think it’s a nothing burger.
The Birds went with an ultra conservative game plan, a weird trend that has developed during the Jalen Hurts era.
Hurts’ Lowest Career aDOT Games
- Week 1, 2025: 4.9 yards
- Week 1, 2022: 4.1 yards
- Week 5, 2022: 3.8 yards
- Week 1, 2021: 3.7 yards
Goedert is a good player, but he’s not special. The two receivers in this run-oriented offense are special, and assuming that Hurts’ throw depth moves in the direction it has in years past, the tight end’s stock is set to fall sooner than later (there’s a reason he’s never cleared five touchdown receptions in a season or reached 60 catches).
I’d be shocked if there is a sell-high thread to chase here, but it’s all contextual. I had Goedert ranked with half a dozen other tight ends as coin flip streaming options this summer, and that remains my stance: I believe he is essentially the definition of replacement level at the position.
If you can package him with the last player on your roster for a handcuff running back with strong contingent value, I think you pull the trigger and figure out the tight end position on a weekly basis.
