Bijan Robinson is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 19.5 PPG to Tyler Conklin's 7.5 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Bijan Robinson is the better fantasy play this season.

Cross-position decisions depend on league format. In half-PPR, Bijan Robinson (19.5 PPG) is the higher-floor play. Tyler Conklin (7.5 PPG) could win a specific week on touchdown variance. For FLEX spots, lean toward the player with the softer defensive matchup that week rather than defaulting to season averages.

High confidence: stats strongly favor the leader, and the gap is unlikely to close on matchup alone.

Fantasy Tiers

Bijan Robinson: Tier 1 (Elite) RB (ranked #3 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) RB is harder to replace on waivers than a Tier 5 (Deep League) TE in most league formats.

Bijan Robinson vs Tyler Conklin: The Full Breakdown

Comparing Bijan Robinson (RB, Atlanta Falcons) against Tyler Conklin (TE, New York Jets) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Bijan Robinson averaged 19.5 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.

Bijan Robinson has his bye in Week 11, Tyler Conklin in Week 12. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

If you can acquire Bijan Robinson at a discount because your league-mates undervalue running back production, do it. Tyler Conklin is a reasonable sell-high candidate if his recent games have spiked above his season average. Dynasty outlook: Bijan Robinson (age 24) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds. Tyler Conklin (age 27) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value.
