Dallas Goedert vs Isaiah Likely
Isaiah Likely holds a 35.4% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/25/2026
THE CASE FOR GOEDERT
Goedert is the proven producer with a long track record of weekly usability when healthy, which matters most for contenders. His role in a good offense can still deliver spike weeks and solid TD equity even if he’s no longer a target-hog. At his price, he’s often the cheapest path to bankable TE points without paying the premium for elite tiers.
THE CASE FOR LIKELY
Likely is five years younger with a market value that reflects multi-year runway and the chance to grow into a true featured role. He’s already flashed difference-making ceilings when given volume, and athletic profiles like his can turn into top-8 TE seasons with stable routes. The liquidity is better: you can more easily re-trade him later than an aging vet TE.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Take Goedert if you’re pushing chips in this year and just need reliable TE points at a discount, but Likely if you can afford a bit of volatility for more upside.
Take Likely—age, value insulation, and upside align with a longer timeline far better than buying 31-year-old TE production.
At a ~29% value gap, Likely is the better dynasty asset unless your roster is a clear 2026-irrelevant win-now build that needs points immediately.
