DAWSON KNOX: FANTASY FOOTBALL OUTLOOK FOR THE 2022 NFL SEASON

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox may soon be on the verge of being one of the
game’s top tight ends.



Right now, the game’s top tight ends have solidified themselves as Kansas City
Chiefs Travis Kelce, Baltimore Ravens’ Mark Andrews, San Francisco 49ers’ George
Kittle, Las Vegas Raiders’ Darren Waller, and Atlanta Falcons’ Kyle Pitts.

Other young tight ends have also begun to make cases as being among the best.
Dallas Cowboys’ Dalton Shultz, Philadelphia Eagles’ Dallas Goedert, and Miami
Dolphins’ Mike Gesicki have all been solid options. Knox currently falls more in
line with the great talent in this group.

During his first two seasons, Knox was a solid piece within the Bills’ offense.
He appeared in 27 games, with 18 total starts. Over this two-year stretch, Knox
recorded 52 receptions, 676 receiving yards, and five total touchdowns.

Dawson Knox underwent a true breakout last season. The 25-year-old tight end set
career-highs across the board in his third professional season. He finished the
year playing in 15 games. Knox and quarterback Josh Allen built a solid
connection as the two have connected often.

Knox finished the season with 49 receptions, 587 receiving yards, and nine
touchdowns. He also averaged 12 yards per reception. 31 of Knox’s 49 receptions
resulted in first downs.

Knox’s nine touchdown receptions were tied for the most in the NFL. He finished
alongside Mark Andrews, Travis Kelce, and Hunter Henry for the lead.

Much of Knox’s success has been found within the red zone. His career-highs in
both receptions and receiving yards fall far behind the current top group of
tight ends.



For example, Andrews finished the season with 107 receptions on 153 targets.
Kelce had 92 receptions on 134 targets. Dalton Shultz had 78 receptions on 104
targets. Knox is far behind all of these players in this category. But clearly,
Knox has remained effective as he has been a touchdown machine.

This 2022 season could be where Knox is able to truly solidify himself among the
best at his position.


DAWSON KNOX 2022 FANTASY FOOTBALL OUTLOOK

Dawson Knox finished the season as the 11th-ranked tight end in PPR scoring. His
164.1 fantasy points put him right behind Hunter Henry, Mike Gesicki, and Dallas
Goedert.

With some of the Buffalo Bills’ off-season moves, Knox could find himself in a
drastically different spot at the end of this season.

The Bills’ offense had several big losses over the off-season. Wide receivers
Cole Beasley and Emmanuel Sanders aren’t currently on the roster. The two of
them had legitimate roles on this roster last season.

Buffalo has added multiple pass-catchers through both free agency and the draft
to make up for these losses. They drafted wide receiver Khalil Shakir and signed
tight end Jalen Wydermyer after the draft. The Bills also drafted running back
James Cook who could be a legitimate receiving threat.

In free agency, they signed veteran tight end O.J. Howard.

All of these moves could prove to impact Dawson Knox. His targets within the
offense weren’t high, to begin with, and now the ball will be spread between
even more solid pass-catchers.

The addition of O.J. Howard could be what really hurts Knox this upcoming
fantasy season. Howard, who has dealt with injuries throughout his career, is
still a solid option at tight end.



Since being drafted in the first round in 2017, Howard has struggled to stay on
the field. He has never played a full season and has been limited to just 10
games over the past two seasons. When on the field, he has recorded 119
receptions, 1,737 receiving yards, and 15 touchdowns.

It’s still unknown how good a fully healthy Howard can be within an offense. But
if he can find his footing with this Bills team, he would certainly be taking
touches away from Knox.

Knox will also still be playing alongside star wide receiver Stefon Diggs and a
potential superstar in Gabriel Davis.

Diggs has proven himself as one of the league’s best pass-catchers. He has been
a star within this Bills offense. During last season, he recorded 103
receptions, 1,225 receiving yards, and 10 touchdowns.

Knox will have to fight for the ball this season in Buffalo. He has already
proven to be a touchdown machine and a legitimate threat in the red zone, but
his usage throughout the rest of the field could be up in the air. This could
lead to his fantasy numbers being inconsistent, much like they were at times
last season.



Knox is projected to be the 15th best tight end this upcoming season. His
average draft position is currently pick #100. This may be an accurate spot for
him given how this offense looks heading into 2022.
