Dell was one of the most pleasant surprises in all of Fantasy Football as a rookie in 2023. Despite his diminutive size, Dell proved to be a separator against NFL coverage at all three levels of the field and the Texans didn't limit him to slot snaps only. He led the Texans WR group in target share and Fantasy points per game before breaking his fibula late in the season. Dell has recovered on schedule and is already participating in OTAs. His Fantasy outlook got murkier with Houston adding Stefon Diggs to the mix, but his rapport with C.J. Stroud was so advanced in 2023, Dell should be able to return value on his sixth-round Fantasy draft capital in 2024.
If Dell's rookie season saw him set a franchise rookie record for receiving scores in just 11 games, a second season bears real excitement. He is expected to be fully back from a broken fibula that shortened his prolific first season in the league, and Dell also, fortunately, shouldn't be limited by a shooting wound incurred in the offseason. Forging a dynamic duo with C.J. Stroud as one of the most exciting big-play tandems in the NFL, Year 2 could be even more compelling for Dell. Target competition is a real factor on a depth chart that includes Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs, yet, as last season suggests, Dell can do a lot of damage without immense volume. The history of second-year receiving ascension also bodes well for Dell, making him a worthy WR3 target as a key part of a rising offense.
