Dawson Knox vs Greg Dulcich: The Full Breakdown

This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Dawson Knox finished the 2025 season at 5.4 PPG over 16 games with the Buffalo Bills, while Greg Dulcich clocked in at 5.5 across 9 appearances for the Miami Dolphins. A 0.1-point gap means any given week could go either way.

With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.

Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Dawson Knox had 36 catches for 417 yards; Greg Dulcich posted 26 for 335. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.

One scheduling note: Dawson Knox is off Week 7 and Greg Dulcich Week 6. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in tight end for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
