Liam Murphy called Cade Otton a "really nice" late pick, citing a three-game stretch last season of 18, 29, and 21 PPR points that showed genuine ceiling. Even acknowledging Tampa Bay’s crowded target tree, Murphy thinks Otton’s ability to earn red-zone looks and handle 90-plus percent of snaps when healthy makes him an ideal fourth tight end on rosters that are already strong elsewhere. In total-points best ball, those occasional 20-point explosions are hard to match off waivers, and Otton’s TE37 price tag leaves plenty of room for profit if he simply repeats last year’s usage.

Pat Fantasy Dog Pound highlighted Cade Otton at pick 186 as an underrated way to buy into Tampa Bay’s ‘powerful offense’ on the cheap. With Mike Evans and Chris Godwin commanding defensive attention—and expensive ADPs—Otton becomes the affordable leverage piece who can siphon red-zone looks from Baker Mayfield. Pat likes pairing Otton with Buccaneers or Panthers players for the indoor Week 16 rematch that could shoot out if Bryce Young takes a step. Given that elite tight ends are gone by Round 15, Pat thinks Otton’s every-down snap share (he ran a route on 78 percent of drop-backs after Week 10 last season) makes him a priority third tight end over fringe WR6 types that rarely crack starting lineups.
