Instant Fantasy Analysis - TE Trey McBride, Cardinals

[The Football Guru 212]

Draft Profile

Team Fit: McBride is about as sure-handed as they come. He runs to his timed speed (4.56) and will stretch the seam. His competitive spirit shows up in the effort he puts into blocking as much as it does after the catch; he is not elite in either area but certainly more advanced in both relative to the majority of tight ends who have entered the draft recently. While there is some Travis Kelce to his game, his ceiling is most likely along the lines of Greg Olsen or Zach Ertz. As it worked out, he will bide his time behind and/or alongside Ertz for now. McBride does have eventual top 10 tight end upside down the road, however.

Any idea on where he might go in a 12 teamer dynasty draft?

In a rookie draft, I would think mid-second. A lot of managers want some kind of immediate payoff from their first two rookie picks, and it is reasonable to assume he won't provide that being stuck behind Ertz for now.
