We're going to start with an ascending rookie tight end who is being schemed up in a versatile role -- and producing. There are multiple backfield rotations also worthy of your attention, and I also see an emerging wide receiver worth adding to rosters.

There is no denying it. 2025 is the year of Jake Ferguson. The Dallas Cowboys gave their tight end an extension while back in training camp this summer and look like absolute geniuses for doing so.
