Is Tucker Kraft the Next NFL Breakout Star? The Stats Say Yes.
So, here’s a curious thing: while all eyes are trained on the shiny new wide receivers the Packers snagged in the draft—the kind of first-rounders Green Bay hasn’t grabbed in over 20 years—another star quietly blazes his own trail on the field. Tucker Kraft, that third-year tight end you might not have circled on your fantasy radar… well, he’s on pace to shatter expectations and leave defenders wondering if he’s got some sort of secret sauce. With projections showing him neck-and-neck with league giants like Brock Bowers and George Kittle, how did Kraft become Jordan Love’s go-to guy and a mismatch nightmare? Let’s dive into the unexpected breakout season that’s shaking up the Pack’s offense and maybe your fantasy lineup too.
The Green Bay Packers took a wide receiver in the first round of the NFL Draft for the first time in more than two decades.
As such, expectations were quite high for rookie WR Matthew Golden.
There has also been a lot of talk about Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson and whether they can take another step forward and prove that they can be a WR1.
Nevertheless, as much as that wide receiver corps is worth talking about, we can’t ignore Tucker Kraft.
As pointed out by Sleeper NFL on X, the third-year tight end is in the midst of a breakout season, and he’s projected to have a strong finish to the campaign.
As things stand now, he’s on pace to finish the year with 65 receptions for 923 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns.
That would be good for 190 fantasy points in most leagues, which would’ve been third in the league last season behind only Brock Bowers and George Kittle.

Needless to say, being on the same list as those two speaks volumes about his ranking in the position.
Kraft has become one of Jordan Love’s favorite and most reliable targets.
He’s a perennial mismatch in the end zone, and he’s a master of picking up yards after the catch once he’s roaming free on the open field.
The Packers have found a true star at the tight end position.
And while he may not get as much credit as he deserves, he’s been instrumental to their offensive success this season.
