TE Tyler Warren, IND (1 Viewer)

[Uncle Leo]

This one burns as I wanted him so bad, but took McBride in the 3rd. What a mistake. I could have had a second WR or a RB there and taken Warren in the 6th instead.

I doubt you'll be upset with McBride, especially as he's the only top TE who stayed healthy, but yeah, Warren looked like the guy he did in college. Most team will cover the perimeter better than Miami, so this is likely nowhere near Warren's ceiling.

Warren should already be considered a must-start fantasy tight end. Anyone who drafted Warren and another tight end in case Warren didn’t work out can cut or trade that other tight end for a player at a different position.

Was thinking the bold as well. While it may be jumping the gun, I don’t see a reason to carry a mediocre TE (Ferguson in my case) if I’m going to just roll with Warren on a weekly basis. Can always pick up someone on waivers for Warren’s bye or if he gets hurt.

I would but then pitts had 8 targets so ill hold for now.

Chicago's offense will be better under Johnson, but I don't understand passing on Warren. It's just one game, but I'd like to know the thought process behind taking Loveland.

Does Johnson have full autonomy over personnel or was this a Poles pick?

They are different styles of TE. Loveland is a separator and seam stretcher, and Warren is a manufactured touch RAC guy.

I think the talent levels were pretty similar overall, I preferred Warren, but I don't think its egregious. I think they'll both be pretty good. Loveland is also 2 years younger.

I hear ya. It just seems like Warren would be a lot more of a force multiplier, opening up things for the other skill players.

I wasn't the biggest fan of the Burden pick, either. I'm curious how productive those two will be under Johnson.

Currently DJM is in that 'manufactured touch RAC' role and he's pretty good at it. Loveland fits the current roster better, although with Kmet there, taking a TE was a head scratcher IMO.

I'm rostering McBride and Warren, who were both good values where I drafted them. This is what I wanted to see happen. Major trade value.

What if you drafted McBride at your TE and plan to slot Warren at flex?

Colts rookie Tyler Warren becomes centerpiece of offense

@YahooFantasy
The Colts may make Tyler Warren the "focal point of their team’s passing offense" with Patrick Surtain II matched up against Michael Pittman Jr. on Sunday, per @RomeovilleKid

[Stoneworker]

It will be interesting to see when DC Vance Joseph goes man if he matches up 1st round CB Jahdae Barron with Warren on Sunday

Barron is fast and very physical and has some good tape vs. Colston Loveland in college when Texas played Michigan
