2024 was a difficult season for many of the top tight ends. Dalton Kincaid<\/span> is no exception<\/span><\/a>, as his numbers decreased from his rookie season. <\/span>That being said,<\/span> Kincaid is still young, and Josh Allen lacks a standout number-one target.<\/span> There’s no reason why Kincaid can’t evolve into that target for him. <\/span>This<\/span> is how Dalton Kincaid’s dynasty outlook looks in a changed Bills offense.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dalton Kincaid: Dynasty Outlook for Bills Tight End<\/span><\/h2>\n

Current Production<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

There’s no denying that Kincaid’s season was disappointing. He missed four games but ended with only 44 receptions, 448 yards, and two touchdowns. He could not build upon a promising second half of 2023, even with <\/span>Stefon Diggs<\/span><\/a> departing. The Bills became more of a rushing-oriented team and had several blowouts in which <\/span>the starters were rested<\/span>, two factors that did not help Kincaid’s case.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In fantasy, Kincaid was projected as a top-five tight end but finished as the TE20<\/a> in points per game. He only scored more than 10 points three times all season. His volume wasn’t <\/span>bad<\/span>, having averaged nearly six targets per game, but his lack of yardage and touchdowns hurt him. Kincaid dynasty owners will hope that more experience and reps can earn him a more prominent role in 2025.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kincaid Dynasty Price<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

KeepTradeCut<\/span><\/a> lists Kincaid as the TE9 and 112th player overall. He started the season as the TE4 in <\/span>dynasty<\/span> but has now moved behind names like Tucker Kraft and incoming rookie <\/span>Colston Loveland<\/span><\/a>. The slip in ranking reflects his subpar season, but it is still high enough to show that people believe in Kincaid.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tight ends aren’t very valuable on the trade market. Most trades involving Kincaid on <\/span>FantasyCalc<\/span><\/a> are for second or third-round picks\u00a0or as part of a package for a more valuable player. Kincaid’s price shouldn’t be too hefty, but <\/span>he’s still seen<\/span> as a starting tight end in dynasty leagues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kincaid Dynasty Outlook<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

The biggest positive about Kincaid is his age. He’s only 25 and was a first-round pick<\/a> in 2023 for a reason. He has the tools to be successful in the NFL, and he’s shown that. 2025 is also the last guaranteed year of Dawson Knox’s contract<\/a> in Buffalo, meaning that, in theory, Kincaid would be splitting far fewer snaps starting in 2026.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Bills have some talent at receiver between <\/span>Keon Coleman<\/span><\/a>, Khalil Shakir, and Amari Cooper. Still, Kincaid can provide a different dimension with his size and ability in the middle of the field. Kincaid has the potential to grow as a touchdown threat and as a consistent six- to seven-reception tight end, which would go a long way in PPR formats.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What to Do With Dalton Kincaid<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>in Dynasty Leagues<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Now is an opportunity to buy low on Kincaid. He wouldn’t be too expensive, and he’s young in a position that is not loaded with talent. He’s attached to Josh Allen and an excellent offense<\/a> in Buffalo. It’s hard to imagine that Kincaid will be worse in 2025 than in 2024, so don’t sell him now.<\/span><\/p>\n
