Fantasy football tight ends can be a total drag.

Unless you elect to spend some draft capitol on one of the top guys, like Travis Kelce or Kyle Pitts, more than half of your league will be chasing a flier, or streaming tight ends all season long.

This season will probably be no different, as we conclude that there are just about about four-to-six tight ends who you can start all season long as no-brainer options. The rest will be subject to the whims and fortunes of the fantasy football gods.

Here's how we rank those top six, and the top 25 tight ends overall heading into 2022:
