Dallas Goedert vs Taysom Hill: The Full Breakdown

Deciding between Dallas Goedert and Taysom Hill is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The Philadelphia Eagles tight end put up 10.3 PPG in 2025 over 15 games; Taysom Hill of the New Orleans Saints averaged 5.5 in 14. A 4.8-point margin that could shift on any given week.

The per-game difference of 4.8 points favors Dallas Goedert, 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.

Dallas Goedert is the volume tight end in this matchup with 60 receptions for 591 yards, while Taysom Hill profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (2 scores on 18 catches). In weeks where Taysom Hill finds the end zone he out-scores Dallas Goedert, but the floor gap is real.

Dallas Goedert has his bye in Week 10, and Taysom Hill rests in Week 12. 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.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Dallas Goedert is a buy in trades where the other manager is chasing upside at a different position. Taysom Hill is a hold unless you can flip him for a positional upgrade elsewhere on your roster. Dynasty outlook: Dallas Goedert (age 31) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining. Taysom Hill (age 27) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value.
