AFC East Offensive Rookie of the Year Contender

Dalton Kincaid, TE, Buffalo Bills, Round 1, Pick 25

I know, I know, I said a tight end will not win Offensive Rookie of the Year, and I believe that, but good luck finding a better candidate in the AFC East. Go ahead and look; I’ll wait.

Okay, with that out of the way, even though Kincaid is a massive long shot to win the award, he has the potential to be an excellent fit in Buffalo. He presents a high-upside addition to a Bills offense that is trying to evolve into a more dynamic unit with less reliance on Josh Allen’s mobility while diversifying his weapons.

The 6-foot-4, 246-pound tight end from Utah caught 70 passes for 890 yards and eight touchdowns in 2022. He immediately adds a big, versatile, and athletic target to the Bills’ arsenal. It should be fun to see how Kincaid meshes in coordinator Ken Dorsey’s offense.
