This one is genuinely close. Greg Dulcich edges Noah Fant by 1.1 PPG, but both are in the same production tier. The decision comes down to weekly matchup, not season-long resume. If you are choosing between them in a draft, Greg Dulcich goes slightly earlier based on volume, but do not reach for the difference.

Greg Dulcich vs Noah Fant: The Full Breakdown

The gap between Greg Dulcich and Noah Fant is smaller than most fantasy managers think. Separated by just 1.1 PPG in 2025, this is one of those tight end decisions that comes down to context, not name recognition. Greg Dulcich averaged 5.5 PPG with the Miami Dolphins across 9 games, and Noah Fant posted 4.4 with the Cincinnati Bengals in 13.

When two tight ends are separated by less than two points per game, the decision shifts to weekly context. Who has the softer defense? Who is trending up over the last month? Which team is projected for more total points? Those are the tiebreakers that actually matter.

Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Greg Dulcich had 26 catches for 335 yards; Noah Fant posted 34 for 288. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.

One thing to note: both players share a Week 6 bye. That means you need a backup plan at tight end for that week, especially if one of these two is your starter.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Greg Dulcich (age 26) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value. Noah Fant (age 28) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value.
