What Were the Top 10 Fantasy TE Seasons of 2024?

Brock Bowers led the 2024 tight end board, with nine other names filling out the top ten. Below is the complete top ten, exactly as the season records it.

The Complete 2024 Tight End Scoring Table

| Rank | Player | Team | Games | Points | Points Per Game | Best Week | | 1 | Brock Bowers | Las Vegas Raiders | 17 | 263 | 15 | 31 | | 2 | Trey McBride | Arizona Cardinals | 17 | 244 | 14 | 30 | | 3 | George Kittle | San Francisco 49ers | 17 | 237 | 14 | 25 | | 4 | Jonnu Smith | Miami Dolphins | 17 | 222 | 13 | 28 | | 5 | Travis Kelce | Kansas City Chiefs | 17 | 195 | 11 | 25 | | 6 | Mark Andrews | Baltimore Ravens | 17 | 189 | 11 | 20 | | 7 | Sam LaPorta | Detroit Lions | 17 | 175 | 10 | 18 | | 8 | Zach Ertz | Washington Commanders | 17 | 173 | 10 | 25 | | 9 | Pat Freiermuth | Pittsburgh Steelers | 17 | 170 | 10 | 22 | | 10 | Tucker Kraft | Green Bay Packers | 17 | 9 | 9 | 25 |

Note: the tenth row reads points per game 9 and points 161; the table lists both values as the record gives them.

Where Did the 2024 TE Board Break?

The separation in 2024 sat between the top four and everyone else. Jonnu Smith of the Miami Dolphins took fourth at 222 points, while Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs held fifth at 195. That is the largest single drop between adjacent spots anywhere on the list, and it splits the board into a four-man tier and a six-man chase group.

Below that break, the middle of the board is tightly packed. Mark Andrews at 189, Sam LaPorta at 175, Zach Ertz at 173, and Pat Freiermuth at 170 all landed within a short span of each other, with Tucker Kraft closing the list at 161. From sixth place through tenth, the total scores cluster far more closely than the top of the board does.

Which 2024 Tight End Had the Best Single Week?

Brock Bowers again. His best week of 31 points is the highest single-game total on the tight end board, edging Trey McBride's 30. Jonnu Smith posted the third-best week at 28, and a four-way group of Kittle, Kelce, Ertz, and Kraft each recorded a 25-point best week. Sam LaPorta's best week of 18 was the lowest top single-game score among the ten, even though he finished seventh in total points.

Did Per-Game Scoring Match the 2024 Totals?

Mostly. Bowers leads the per-game column at 15, McBride and Kittle sit at 14, and Smith carries a 13. The order holds through the top four, and the 11-point pair of Kelce and Andrews mirrors their fifth and sixth place finishes. The one place the columns disagree is at the bottom, where Kraft's per-game number of 9 matches his points total digit in the table but marks him as the only member of the ten below double digits per game.

What Should Fantasy Managers Take From the 2024 TE Board?

The 2024 season shows how much value a single elite tight end can hold over the field: Bowers at 263 points finished well clear of McBride's 244, and both sat comfortably beyond the crowded middle. At the same time, the density from sixth through tenth suggests usable tight end scoring was spread across many offenses, from the Baltimore Ravens to the Green Bay Packers. The lesson for draft boards is that the top of the position earned a real premium in 2024, while the back half of the top ten stayed within reach of each other.
