Trey McBride
Cardinals Make McBride Richest Tight End
2 weeks ago

The Arizona Cardinals are extending Trey McBride, marking him the highest-paid tight end in the history of the NFL.

Trey McBride should be gleaming with his new 4-year deal worth $76 million ($43 million guaranteed), and fantasy managers should also be ecstatic. The 25-year-old has been a juggernaut the last 2 seasons, emerging as one of, if not the best, weapons at the position.

 

While Brock Bowers is being selected a full round ahead of McBride in both dynasty and redraft, the Cardinals tight end is the better value. McBride commanded a league-leading 29.3% target share with check-down merchant Kyler Murray last year. While both options are very comfortable picks in the early rounds, McBride’s established chemistry with his quarterback makes him a more stable option, at least in the short term.
