Garret Price and Andrew Mott reviewed the 2025 rookie wide receivers and tight ends on the Dynasty Nerds podcast. Tetairoa McMillan and Emeka Egbuka posted nearly identical stats, while Luther Burden emerged as Chicago's future alongside Rome Odunze. The tight end class delivered four potential top-10 dynasty assets in Colston Loveland, Tyler Warren, Harold Fannin, and Oronde Gadsden. Listen to This Episode: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎙️ Spotify ▶️ YouTube Travis Hunter showed improvement before injury, trending toward 80% snap counts on offense with 14 targets in his final game. Andrew called him underrated in current trade markets despite the two-way player concerns. T-Mac and Egbuka both finished with nearly identical production—59 and 58 receptions, 851 and 870 yards, six touchdowns each—with T-Mac proving more consistent week-to-week. Matthew Golden disappointed both analysts, with Garret ranking him WR8 pre-draft and Andrew viewing him as a second-round rookie pick value. His blocking deficiencies mirror the issues that limited Jaden Reed's snap counts in Green Bay. Burden sits at 479 yards with three games remaining, positioned to be Chicago's Amon-Ra St. Brown in Ben Johnson's offense once DJ Moore departs. The 2025 tight end class may be historic. Warren and Loveland lead the way as potential top-four dynasty tight ends, with Andrew preferring Warren due to less target competition in Indianapolis. Fannin has been the surprise, posting 667 yards and making David Njoku's free agency decision easy for Cleveland. Gadsden's 602 yards as a converted wide receiver gives the Chargers a legitimate receiving weapon. Even depth pieces like Mason Taylor (369 yards in Houston's struggling offense) and Gunner Helm (347 yards for Miami) show promise. Andrew emphasized the tight end development window: 90% of multi-year top-six tight ends hit that threshold within their first two seasons.
