Draft note

by John Paulsen

Schultz looks like a nice value as the seventh tight end off the board in the middle of the seventh round. He finished TE4 last year and, if anything, his outlook has improved this season. Amari Cooper was traded away and Michael Gallup is likely to miss part of the regular season recovering from his ACL tear. This means that Schultz will be competing with Jalen Tolbert and James Washington for targets behind CeeDee Lamb.

Dalton Schultz receives franchise tag

The Dallas Cowboys are using their franchise tag on TE Dalton Schultz.

Fantasy Impact:

The team had zero tight ends healthy or under contract. Schultz broke out in 2021 and appears set to be a top three passing option for Dak Prescott if the Cowboys decide to move on from Amari Cooper.

DAL TE Dalton Schultz - 2022 Fantasy Football Outlook

2022 Fantasy Upside
Dalton Schultz has been one of the most productive tight ends over the past two seasons. Schultz ranks fourth among all tight ends in total fantasy points, and was one of only three tight ends to exceed 200 fantasy points last season. Schultz received the team’s franchise tag, translating to a one-year, $10.9 million deal. The 26-year-old Schultz is highly motivated for a multi-year deal in 2023, and is coming off a season where he ranked third at the position in receptions (78).

2022 Fantasy Downside
Schultz finished as the TE5 in PPR scoring, but is now being drafted exactly in that area. Can he live up to those lofty expectations? With Tony Pollard expected to see an increase in targets, could Schultz lose value despite residing in one of the NFL’s best offenses?

2022 Bottom Line
The loss of wide receivers Amari Cooper and Cedrick Wilson equates to 205 vacated targets. Even if Schultz's efficiency regresses, his target volume should compensate. He ranked Top 10 in deep targets and gathered 14 red zone targets despite playing eight games with former tight end Blake Jarwin. Schultz doesn’t carry the upside of the fantasy tight ends drafted earlier, but his place in the Cowboys offense provides the safest of production floors.
