Hunter Henry finished as the TE9 last season, finishing with an impressive 768 receiving yards and 7 touchdowns, but those relying on a repeat performance are likely making a mistake.
Henry's elite efficiency masked a low volume ceiling, as his 60 receptions represented the lowest total among all top 10 fantasy tight ends in 2025. He got to his totals with an impressive 12.8 yards per reception, which could be possible again due to New England's offseason acquisitions of A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs who could open things up for Henry in the intermediate areas of the field. However, the arrival of Brown and Doubs is a problem as those two will almost certainly gobble up the high value deep routes and targets near the goal line, directly threatening the touchdown output that has sustained Henry's fantasy value.
To make things even more complicated, New England drafting Notre Dame tight end Eli Raridon in the third round introduces competition for inline snaps and blocking duties, potentially reducing Henry's overall route participation in the offense.
While Maye's growth keeps the Patriots offense efficient, tight ends who depend heavily on red zone touchdown conversion rather than raw target volume end up producing volatile weekly scores. Outside of leagues where managers are forced to start two tight ends, Henry lacks the target volume necessary to offer consistent starting production. Draft him as a mid-range TE2 whose weekly value rests on converting limited red zone opportunities into touchdowns.
