The Bottom Line

Amon-Ra St. Brown is the better fantasy play this season.

Fantasy Tiers

Amon-Ra St. Brown: Tier 1 (Elite) WR (ranked #4 at the position). Tyler Conklin: Tier 5 (Deep League) TE (ranked #99 at the position). Comparing across positions, raw PPG is less useful than positional scarcity. A Tier 1 (Elite) WR is harder to replace on waivers than a Tier 5 (Deep League) TE in most league formats.

Amon-Ra St. Brown vs Tyler Conklin: The Full Breakdown

Comparing Amon-Ra St. Brown (WR, Detroit Lions) against Tyler Conklin (TE, New York Jets) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Amon-Ra St. Brown averaged 15.6 PPG in 2025 over 17 games, while Tyler Conklin posted 7.5 PPG across 17 games.

Cross-position FLEX decisions cannot be made on PPG alone. Positional scarcity, matchup quality, floor versus ceiling, and league scoring format all shift the answer. A 14 PPG tight end in a thin TE week is often worth more than a 16 PPG receiver in a deep WR week, because the opportunity cost on the waiver wire is wildly different.

DraftCall's AI engine weighs all of these signals and returns a verdict with clear reasoning, so you are not cross-referencing four different rankings tabs on a Sunday morning.

Amon-Ra St. Brown has his bye in Week 6, Tyler Conklin in Week 12. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.
