Should You Start or Roster Cedric Tillman?

Tillman's 2025 line is a flashing warning light: a 7.5% target share, just 0.13 targets per route, and a 0.90 yards-per-route-run mark that ranks him near WR102 in our model. He converted only 53.8% of those looks into catches for 270 yards and two scores across 12 games, with a 0.198 WOPR that screams complementary, not featured. The lone positive is a 0.167 EPA per play, his best in three years, but a 41% success rate undercuts any efficiency case.

The trajectory hasn't budged either, with his target share parked between 7.4% and 7.7% every season since 2023. A crowded Cleveland room only got tighter after two drafted rookies, capping his snap and air-yards ceiling further. Treat him as a touchdown-dependent dart throw in the deepest formats, nothing more, until a clear path to volume actually opens.

Our 2026 Preseason Outlook

Tillman's 2025 line is a flashing warning light: a 7.5% target share, just 0.13 targets per route, and a 0.90 yards-per-route-run mark that ranks him near WR102 in our model. He converted only 53.8% of those looks into catches for 270 yards and two scores across 12 games, with a 0.198 WOPR that screams complementary, not featured. The lone positive is a 0.167 EPA per play, his best in three years, but a 41% success rate undercuts any efficiency case.

The trajectory hasn't budged either, with his target share parked between 7.4% and 7.7% every season since 2023. A crowded Cleveland room only got tighter after two drafted rookies, capping his snap and air-yards ceiling further. Treat him as a touchdown-dependent dart throw in the deepest formats, nothing more, until a clear path to volume actually opens.
