Fantasy Tiers

Chigoziem Okonkwo: Tier 5 (Deep League) TE (ranked #99 at the position). Zach Charbonnet: Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) RB (ranked #28 at the position). Comparing across positions, raw PPG is less useful than positional scarcity. A Tier 5 (Deep League) TE is harder to replace on waivers than a Tier 4 (Bench/Bye Fill) RB in most league formats.

Chigoziem Okonkwo vs Zach Charbonnet: The Full Breakdown

Comparing Chigoziem Okonkwo (TE, Tennessee Titans) against Zach Charbonnet (RB, Seattle Seahawks) means weighing two different roles in your fantasy lineup. Chigoziem Okonkwo averaged 6.5 PPG in 2025 over 16 games, while Zach Charbonnet posted 10.7 PPG across 16 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.

Chigoziem Okonkwo has his bye in Week 5, Zach Charbonnet in Week 11. Plan your FLEX rotation around those weeks, especially if either player is anchoring your roster.
