TE Tucker Kraft, GB (4 Viewers)

[Terpman22]

Really sucks for Kraft, and maybe I'm overrating Kraft or underrating others, but I think this could be a catastrophic loss for GB. He was their biggest difference maker, and they don't really have any others. Other than Joe Burrow and maybe Malik Nabers, I'm not sure there is a bigger offensive injury than Kraft this season.

I'm a little concerned for the Packers offense going forward.

The splits with and without Joe Alt in the lineup in San Diego, I mean LA, are a little troubling.

We just can’t have nice things, can we?

Odd as my team has lost Kraft, Burrow, Nabers, Evans, Hampton (with Judkins and Swift now hurt too)

That said…it wasn’t until the last few weeks that they really featured Kraft. The good and bad of GB offense is they had no stars, no focus. Watson back, Doubs…see where Golden’s health is after this. Musgrave can play…hasn’t been as explosive as Kraft for sure. But yes. Still a big loss of explosive plays. Can’t lose much more and they are already inconsistent as it is.

Very fair. They have no YAC monsters like Kraft. Every receiver on the team is flawed and not feature worthy apparently. Big downgrade for their entire offense and especially Love

Yeah not unreasonable, probably the guy along with Jacobs the D most has to account for.

That said, Musgrave and Fitzpatrick aren't Kraft but I don't know many if any teams that have that kind of TE depth.

Reed should be back soon, so who knows.

Love just seems like a QB who is treading water in terms of any development to me. He is what he is, he's not terrible but meh

 

[menobrown]

ACL confirmed

[Schefter] Tests confirmed that Packers TE Tucker Kraft did in fact tear his ACL as feared, per source.

Let him tread water for one more week.

Perhaps TEs can come back quicker than RBs or TEs from an ACL injury, but unfortunately he’s not your average TE in that a lot of his value comes from his explosiveness.

I feel like it is just as bad because of the blocking they have to do.

Excellent point - need that leverage for blocking stability against those behemoths on the other side of the line.

 

[Ilov80s]

It will be a sad morning tomorrow when I drop Kraft from my team.

Me too, especially cause I had just traded away Kittle

 

[menobrown]

Today is also his birthday.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Man what a bummer. I don’t have any dynasty shares, but I have him in a BB & a redraft. Gah.

I feel for my friend - in 3 leagues with him & he has Kraft/Love stack everywhere. Lovecraft? Anyway. Sucks.

 

[joey]

2 dynasty shares and 1 redraft auction share (one of the steals of the auction to date).

ETA: :(

We just can’t have nice things, can we?

Could be worse...you could be the 49ers. Packers still have a glut of WRs and RBs and a TE that was a 2nd round pick to fill in. Love just needs to recalibrate his distribution. Or run the ball 80% of the time.

 

[Kiddnets]

Whats the timeline for those of us in keeper leagues that have him next year? Assuming its a clean ACL when they do the surgery its usually around 9-12 months now? Hate holding a spot for him for next year only to have him out until December

 

[Lehigh98]

Since we're talking about trade value / options in both threads...

I'm battling for 1.01 in a rebuild and this was just offered to me from a contender, no brainer?...
(SF, best ball, 6pt pass TD, +1 PPR TEP, 0.25 point per carry)

Give: Jalen Hurts & Michael Pittman
Receive: Jayden Daniels & Tucker Kraft

Yeesh. Don't know if Kraft will come back fully healthy. And what if Musgrave takes over? I don't think I could pull the trigger on that.

 

[wlwiles]

Between the offseason and Week 4, I went out and traded for Kraft in every single one of my dynasty leagues. This freaking sucks. Stuff like this makes me seriously question why I play this game and put so much effort into it. Guess diversifying your roster really is the smart play. I was 100% a believer in the talent and that an emergence was coming this year.

You're up now Pitts, Andrews, and Hockenson - time to show me something.

 

[phandango]

When Jayden Reed broke his collarbone and was obviously going on IR, Packers waited until Saturday to put him on IR. Hopefully they put Kraft on IR today or tomorrow.

 

[Smack Tripper]

[joey]

Need him to officially go to IR before tomorrow night’s FFPC waiver run.

 

[Ilov80s]

Is it a dynasty/keeper league?

 

[Footballdaz]

Need him to officially go to IR before tomorrow night’s FFPC waiver run.

Why? He's out for the rest of season.

Most leagues don't allow teams to move players to IR unless the hosting site says they are on the IR. The way it should be.

I like Kraft over pittman but would probably ask for more to go from Daniels to Hurts with how this season has gone for Daniels and the questions about whether he can hold up, especially in SF

Same here, as of Friday I traded away Kittle.

Yes, dynasty of course.
