Dalton Kincaid vs Harold Fannin
Dalton Kincaid holds a 20.5% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/28/2026
THE CASE FOR KINCAID
Kincaid is already an NFL-proven receiving TE tied to Josh Allen in a high-scoring offense, which is the cleanest path to near-term top-6 TE seasons. Buffalo’s pass volume and red-zone chances give him weekly spike upside even without elite TD variance. For contenders, bankable routes/targets in an elite QB ecosystem often outscore the “mystery box” rookie-year lag at TE.
THE CASE FOR FANNIN
Fannin’s 22.0 age and cheaper SF 3,296 cost bake in growth and optionality, which matters at a slow-developing position. If he earns starting snaps and becomes a top-2 target in Cleveland, the value jump from TE2 to every-week TE1 is massive relative to his price. The 44.2% value gap means you’re paid to take the uncertainty while keeping a realistic path to closing the scoring gap within 12–18 months.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Kincaid for contenders if you’re starting him weekly; otherwise take Fannin plus a meaningful add and don’t pay the premium.
Fannin in a rebuild—age, insulation, and asymmetric value upside at the position beat paying up for a 26.8-year-old TE.
Slight lean Fannin at cost, but if your lineup needs immediate TE points, Kincaid is the safer weekly bet.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
Worth more?
Kincaid is worth more today, but Fannin is the better value relative to price given the 44.2% gap.
Trade?
If you have Kincaid, ask for Fannin + a 2nd (or equivalent) to tier down; if you have Fannin, only add a 2nd-ish to get Kincaid, not a 1st.
Superflex?
In SF, keep the discount side at TE more often—TE premiums are thinner than QB/RB/WR leverage, so Fannin’s cheaper profile is preferred unless you’re pushing chips in.
