Their 2025 seasons

He caught 26 of 33 targets for 335 yards and 1 touchdown, with 5 red zone targets.

That came to 3.3 targets a game, a 79 percent catch rate and 12.9 yards a catch.

He was on the field for 41 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Caleb Douglas is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Side by side

Greg Dulcich is a tight end and Caleb Douglas a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 6, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

What would change the answer

0.5 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
