The Bottom Line

Cedric Tillman is the better fantasy play this season.

Cedric Tillman has the edge, but it is not a runaway. The 2.2-PPG advantage is real (8.2 to 6.0), and Cedric Tillman's 4 touchdowns show scoring upside. Mack Hollins is the buy-low candidate if recent production has dipped, because the talent gap is smaller than the numbers suggest.

Moderate confidence: stats favor the leader, but matchup variance could flip this weekly.

Cedric Tillman vs Mack Hollins: The Full Breakdown

Two wide receivers who will land on plenty of the same rosters in 2026. Cedric Tillman (Cleveland Browns) finished the 2025 season averaging 8.2 fantasy points per game in 14 games. Mack Hollins (New England Patriots) came in at 6.0 PPG over 15 games. The gap is real but not insurmountable with the right matchup.

Cedric Tillman carries a 2.2-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.

Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Cedric Tillman turned 78 targets into 612 yards and 4 touchdowns, while Mack Hollins converted 65 looks into 550 yards and 2 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.

One scheduling note: Cedric Tillman is off Week 10 and Mack Hollins Week 14. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Cedric Tillman (age 27) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value. Mack Hollins (age 32) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining.
