Replacing a tight end should not require a season-long commitment. These broadly available options are ordered by this week's PPR consensus, with rest-of-season ranks to help you decide whether to keep them.

How to use this board
This is a one-week shortlist for leagues starting one quarterback and one tight end. We include players inside the weekly positional top 20 who are no more than 50% rostered. Compare the best available option with your current starter; appearing here does not mean a player belongs in every lineup.
Selections use positive, available weekly and ROS positional ranks and known ownership. The longer-term value label uses ROS top-12 QB/TE or top-36 RB/WR. Rankings, ownership and the injury snapshot must have been fetched within 48 hours of this page build. The page refreshes with the scheduled site rebuild; status can change between builds. No workload or FAAB bid is inferred from a ranking.
The shortlist combines weekly and rest-of-season positional consensus with FantasyPros rostered percentages. Known unavailable players and players on bye are excluded. Missing ownership or either rank prevents a recommendation; questionable players may remain and carry a status warning.
Are these players available in my league?
Rostered percentage is FantasyPros' ESPN and Yahoo average. It is not Sleeper ownership, and it does not measure availability specifically in deep leagues. Check your league's player pool before submitting a claim.
Does this apply to superflex or dynasty?
The default is 12-team redraft PPR with one starting quarterback. Superflex increases quarterback scarcity; tight end premium, extra starters and deep benches also change replacement value. Dynasty and keeper decisions require longer-term context that this board does not model.
What should I check before making a move?
Confirm the latest injury status, your player's game time, roster eligibility and the actual replacement available. Weekly and ROS ranks measure expert preference, not guaranteed points. A wide best-to-worst range means experts disagree; it is not a scoring floor or ceiling.
