Should You Start or Roster CJ Dippre?
Dippre enters 2026 as a deep-bench afterthought, recently promoted from the practice squad to fill a Patriots roster spot rather than a defined offensive job. The 6-foot-5, 256-pound 24-year-old out of Alabama logged zero production down the stretch last season, and the late-season game logs confirm he was barely seeing the field. With an expert ranking down around TE133 and essentially 0% rostership, he carries no draft cost and no real reason to be drafted in standard formats.
The projection math underscores the problem: roughly 3.9 catches, 37 yards and a third of a touchdown pencil out to about 5 fantasy points for the year. A favorable tight end schedule means nothing without snaps, and until Dippre earns a steady role in New England's rotation, he belongs on the watch list at best. Monitor the depth chart, but there is no actionable upside to chase right now.
