Cedric Tillman
2025 Season Outlooks
Cedric Tillman's Year 2 stats don't look much different than Year 1, but they were almost entirely concentrated in a three-game stretch after Amari Cooper left the Browns and before Tillman got hurt. In those three games, he caught 21 passes for 255 yards and three touchdowns on 32 targets. It's just three games, but it is enticing nonetheless. He enters 2025 as the likely WR2 for a Browns team that has no idea who they will be starting at QB. If Joe Flacco wins and keeps the job, Tillman certainly has WR3 upside in Fantasy. For now, we're drafting him as a bench wide receiver, no sooner than Round 11. Expect that ranking to get better if Flacco is officially named the starter.
Tillman is entering his third NFL season after what appeared to be a breakout 2024 campaign was derailed by a Week 12 season-ending concussion. The 2023 third-round pick wasn't much of a factor during his first 20 NFL games, but that changed when Amari Cooper was traded prior to Week 7 last season. Over the next four weeks, Tillman would average 9.8 targets (eight-plus in all four) and 18.6 fantasy points (three with 18-plus points). His season ended the following week, but was enough to provide optimism about his future. Cleveland's QB situation is uncertain, but Tillman has a lock on No. 2 duties opposite Jerry Jeudy. Consider the 25-year-old in the late rounds.
