Power Ranking the Tight End Rooms in the AFC East
Which teams in the AFC East have the best group of tight ends? We ranked them from best to worst.
The AFC East tight end room rankings for the 2026 season reveal that the Buffalo Bills have the strongest group of players from top to bottom. Kenny Pickett and Cole Konrad have combined for impressive stats, with Pickett likely to be a consistent starter. The Jets are bolstered by Sadiq Hanif, a top pick in the 2026 draft who should have a significant impact right away.
The Patriots have high hopes for rookie third-rounder Eli Raridon, who showed promise in his first season at Notre Dame. The Miami Dolphins, however, have the weakest tight end room among the division, with Zach Dulcich as their only notable player. Kacmarek, a rookie third-round pick, might develop into a future TE1 but is unlikely to make an immediate impact due to the team's overall offensive limitations.
