10. Mike Gesicki, Miami Dolphins
After the Dolphins transitioned from Ryan Fitzpatrick to rookie Tua Tagovailoa, Gesicki had no problem making plays for Miami. He finished as the seventh-best tight end in fantasy football, and was fourth in receiving yardage at the tight end position with 703 yards. Gesicki also caught 53 passes and found the end zone six times.
Gesicki surpassed 23 fantasy points three times last season, which is why he was largely considered a boom or bust option at the tight end position. However, the 6-foot-6, 250 pounder now has three seasons under his belt, so he should continue to improve in 2021. It also doesn’t hurt that Tagovailoa has now had a chance to develop chemistry with his big tight end. Expect around 60 receptions for 800 yards and five touchdowns.
