Summer is the best time to evaluate dynasty assets and their place in the dynasty market. In this series, we will bring you a riser, a faller, and a longshot from each NFL team. We’ll cover dynasty values, positional trades, and overall team outlooks. Let’s jump into the Cincinnati Bengals! Riser : Mike Gesicki , TE During his two seasons in Cincinnati, Gesicki has settled in as a reliable target if called upon. In 2024, with Tee Higgins missing five games, Gesicki helped pick up the slack, finishing with 8.8 PPR points per game. For the season, Gesicki was eighth among tight ends in receptions and tenth in receiving yards. In 2025, he was the one to miss five games, while Higgins only missed two. Without the Bengals needing Gesicki as much, he scored only 5.9 PPR PPG, although he still managed two top 12 weekly finishes for the season. Current Market Value As of now, Gesicki is nearly forgotten about by the dynasty market. He isn't even included in the Dynasty League Football rankings currently. In the latest Startup ADP, Gesicki was drafted as the TE36. Gesicki’s dynasty value makes sense, though. He’s past his prime and would require an injury to someone around him before he becomes relevant. But we also know that if an injury does happen, he could instantly become a weekly starter at his position, and that’s worth something. Future Outlook Gesicki is an easy player to project. He’s a pure pass-catching tight end who will always be a part-time player at best because of it. On a team with a lack of pass catchers, Gesicki could be productive without someone else getting hurt, but that’s not the Bengals. However, if Tee Higgins or Ja'Marr Chase were to miss time, Gesicki would potentially project as a top 12 tight end each week. He’s a contingency play for your dynasty teams who should be practically free to acquire. SUBSCRIBE TO DLF PREMIUM! Gain Instant Access to this resource and so much more!.
