Eli Stowers vs Gunnar Helm
Eli Stowers holds a 32.7% edge in Superflex dynasty value.Updated 9/22/2026
THE CASE FOR STOWERS
Stowers is the better dynasty bet on age/ceiling, coming in ~0.6 years younger with a sizable SF market edge (2,054 vs 1,449; ~29.5%). Philadelphia’s offense offers higher weekly scoring potential, and if he earns a meaningful route share his spike-week equity is stronger than most TE darts. The fact the market already prices him up suggests clearer upside signals (athletic/role/trajectory), making him the preferred hold unless you can tier up.
THE CASE FOR HELM
Helm is the cheaper access point to a path-to-snaps bet: Tennessee’s pass-catching depth can be more fluid, and a functional early-down role can turn into routes quickly at TE. If he captures steady playing time, he can become a usable TE2 without needing elite target volume, which matters in deeper leagues. At a ~30% discount, Helm is a fine add when you’re prioritizing cost efficiency and roster insulation over ceiling.
VERDICT BY TEAM SITUATION
Stowers, because the higher-ceiling offense and stronger market signal are what you want when chasing spike weeks at TE.
Stowers, since he’s younger and carries the better liquidity/insulation if you need to pivot later.
If prices are equal take Stowers; if you can get Helm plus a small sweetener, the discount makes Helm acceptable.
