# Pat Fitzmaurice: Fitzmaurice thinks Tyler Warren won't be elite but will still be among the first five tight ends drafted, sees Harold Fannin as a midrange TE1 in 2026 drafts, has Gunnar Helm atop the Titans' tight end depth chart after Chig Okonkwo's departure, and considers Terrance Ferguson essentially undraftable due to the Rams' crowded tight end room. **Claimed:** Aug 5, 2026 **Pundit:** Pat Fitzmaurice — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/pat-fitzmaurice **Outlet:** FantasyPros — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/fantasypros **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.fantasypros.com/2026/08/fantasy-football-5-second-year-tight-ends-to-watch-2026/ 2 checkable claims — 1 depth chart call and 1 fantasy ranking — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > Warren might not be one of the elite fantasy TEs in 2026, but he should still be one of the first five tight ends off the board in this year’s drafts. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Warren might not be one of the elite fantasy TEs in 2026, but he should still be one of the first five tight ends off the board in this year’s drafts.** - Kind: Fantasy Rankings - Verdict: not settled yet - **Gunnar Helm to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Gunnar Helm, Tennessee Titans - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Gunnar Helm — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/gunnar-helm - Tennessee Titans — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/titans ## What others said about the same people - John Middlekauff on Tennessee Titans: Middlekauff expects blowout wins for Seattle over Washington and Kansas City over Miami in Week 3, picks Cincinnati to beat Pittsburgh in the AFC North matchup, and takes Tennessee over the Giants if Jameis Winston is taking snaps. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/8115d255-82e3-442e-aeef-c3eaa3587603 (scored 0) - Colin Cowherd on Tennessee Titans: The co-host (identified only as "Mitchell") made his own Week 3 picks, including blowout wins for Seattle and San Francisco, Cincinnati 27-17, Detroit 37-13, Denver 24-21 over the Rams, and predicted Jonah Coleman takes over the Broncos' running back role. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/4ccbceaa-54ca-4a2e-ad90-006f1ded0ad2 (scored 0) - Tyler Sullivan on Tennessee Titans: Sullivan projects final scores for every Week 3 game, including a Bills blowout of the reeling Chargers, a Chiefs rout in Miami, a Seahawks win over a Mariota-led Washington, and the Saints beating the Raiders in their home opener.
