Cade Otton vs Harold Fannin: Who Should You Start?

Deciding between Cade Otton and Harold Fannin is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end put up 5.8 PPG in 2025 over 16 games; Harold Fannin of the Cleveland Browns averaged 9.4 in 16. A 3.6-point margin that could shift on any given week.

The per-game difference of 3.6 points favors Harold Fannin, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one tight end to the other.

Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Cade Otton had 59 catches for 572 yards; Harold Fannin posted 72 for 731. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.

Cade Otton has his bye in Week 11, and Harold Fannin rests in Week 10. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at tight end for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
