After tearing his ACL last season, Tucker Kraft has made encouraging progress and is back on the field. The confidence in a Week 1 return has grown over the past few weeks, though the 25-year-old tight end is still likely to need a gradual ramp up before he’s fully back to 100%.

Don’t expect peak production right out of the gate, but given Kraft is still pre-age apex and coming off a massive breakout before the injury, the upside is palpable. His return should push Kraft back up draft boards, making him a prime mid round TE target for managers willing to bet on the comeback. He is PlayerProfiler’s TE5 in redraft and TE6 in dynasty coming off the board after the Big 4 (Bowers, McBride, Loveland, Warren).
