Fantasy Tiers

Luke Musgrave: Tier 5 (Deep League) TE (ranked #99 at the position). Taysom Hill: Tier 5 (Deep League) TE (ranked #99 at the position). Among the top 30 tight ends this season, Luke Musgrave is producing at 22% of elite pace and Taysom Hill at 25%. These two are close enough in the rankings that weekly matchup should dictate your start.

Luke Musgrave vs Taysom Hill: The Full Breakdown

This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Luke Musgrave finished the 2025 season at 4.8 PPG over 14 games with the Green Bay Packers, while Taysom Hill clocked in at 5.5 across 14 appearances for the New Orleans Saints. A 0.7-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. Luke Musgrave had 30 catches for 335 yards; Taysom Hill posted 18 for 195. 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: Luke Musgrave is off Week 10 and Taysom Hill Week 12. 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.

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: Luke Musgrave (age 27) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value. Taysom Hill (age 27) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value.
