Taysom Hill vs Will DisslyWho should you start in 2026 fantasy football?

Taysom Hill is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 5.5 PPG to Will Dissly's 3.9 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Taysom Hill is the better fantasy play this season.

Taysom Hill has the edge, but it is not a runaway. The 1.6-PPG advantage is real (5.5 to 3.9), and Taysom Hill's 5 touchdowns show scoring upside. Will Dissly is the buy-low candidate if recent production has dipped, because the talent gap is smaller than the numbers suggest.

Low confidence: the production gap is narrow enough that weekly context matters more than the season line.

Taysom Hill vs Will Dissly: The Full Breakdown

Taysom Hill and Will Dissly are both viable fantasy tight ends heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Taysom Hill averaged 5.5 PPG across 14 games with the New Orleans Saints, while Will Dissly posted 3.9 PPG in 16 appearances for the Los Angeles Chargers.

A 1.6-PPG gap gives Taysom Hill the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.

Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Taysom Hill had 18 catches for 195 yards; Will Dissly posted 32 for 285. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.

Taysom Hill has his bye in Week 12, and Will Dissly rests in Week 5. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at tight end for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.

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: Taysom Hill (age 27) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value. Will Dissly (age 27) is in the middle of his productive window. Stable dynasty value.
