Mike Gesicki 2022 Outlook
The Dolphins placed the franchise tag on Gesicki. Should Miami and Gesicki work out an extension, it would have to be done by the July 15 deadline. If Gesicki plays the upcoming season on the tag, he'll make $10.9 million, which is likely considerably less than he would've commanded on the open market. Gesicki is the first Dolphins player to be tagged since wide receiver Jarvis Landry in 2018. As NFL.com notes, the 26-year-old tight end has emerged as one of the top offensive weapons at his position through his first four seasons. A second-round pick by Miami in the 2018 NFL Draft, Gesicki turned in 73 receptions and 780 receiving yards in 2021, each of them career highs. Per Next Gen Stats, he tied with Kyle Pitts for the most snaps aligned wide among TEs (2018). Over the past two seasons, Gesicki leads all tight ends in catches (25), receiving yards (328) and receiving touchdowns (five) on tight-window targets. Though he's an established option as a pass catcher, Gesicki's blocking (36.6 pass-blocking grade per Pro Football Focus, 46.1 run-blocking grade in 2021) has always been a negative in his overall game. Now, playing in new coach Mike McDaniel's offense, Gesicki should have a significant role alongside speedsters Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, taking advantage of single coverage, particularly by slower linebackers or smaller safeties.

Mike Gesicki 2021 Outlook
As CBSSports.com suggested, Gesicki should continue to be the No. 1 tight end in Miami this season, and as such, he remains a viable starting fantasy tight end in all formats. And he's not without upside, especially with Tua Tagovailoa heading into his second season as a pro, healthier and hopefully better-versed in the ways of the NFL. Remember, Gesicki had 30 targets, 18 catches and averaged fewer than 10 fantasy points in his first six games of the season, all with Ryan Fitzpatrick under center. In his final four games of the season, all with Tagovailoa as the starter, Gesicki had 34 targets and averaged 16 fantasy points. Two of those games resulted in 23 fantasy points for Gesicki. More broadly, Gesicki has proven himself over the past two seasons, averaging eight PPR points in 2019 and 11 PPR points in 2020. Concerns? The Dolphins added Will Fuller and Jaylen Waddle this offseason, who should both siphon some of Gesicki’s workload. But if Tagovailoa makes the expected strides and builds on his chemistry with Gesicki, there's no reason to overlook one of the more talented, athletic young TEs in the league -- one who is capable of delivering high-end production on a consistent basis.

Mike Gesicki 2020 Outlook
As NFL.com noted, over the first half of last season Gesicki was mostly irrelevant in fantasy leagues. But that wasn't how the story ended. Gesicki went off in the second half, averaging nearly 12 points per game with a points-per-touch average of close to three. He finished things off with three touchdowns in his last two games as his role in the Dolphins’ pass attack increased. For the season Gesicki averaged 11.2 yards per catch and didn't drop a pass. In fact, as Bleacher Report's Gary Davenport notes, Gesicki has yet to tally a drop in the pros. So, should we be concerned about Gesicki's prospects now with wide-receiver-friendly Chan Gailey running the offense? According to ESPN's Cameron Wolfe, Gesicki shouldn't completely disappear in Gailey's offense, but his production may have a ceiling. Yahoo's Liz Loza notes that Gesicki consistently lined up in the slot and was utilized more as a receiver than a traditional tight end while posting top-seven numbers in route participation (71.6 percent) and total targets (nearly six per game). Wolfe believes Gesicki will continue to be used in a "big slot" role, which should help his chances to stay on the field when the offense goes to three- or four-receiver sets. Assuming a role similar to last season, Gesicki is worth consideration as a starter in all formats.
