If you are rebuilding, you should not trade away a young tight end like Sam LaPorta or Trey McBride. You have a cornerstone piece for the foreseeable future. You do not need to trade away for draft picks and hope those draft picks become a LaPorta, McBride, or a wide receiver like Garrett Wilson. Identify key variables when trading away an asset:
- Aging asset
- Travis Kelce (TE8)
- George Kittle (TE11)
- Volatile situation
- Jake Ferguson (TE12)
- Not a top target on their team
- Cole Kmet (TE13)
Rebuilding TE to Trade Away #1 & #2
Aging Asset: Travis Kelce, Kansas City - TE8 | George Kittle, San Francisco – TE11

Below are recent trades taken from MyFantasyLeague’s open API system:
- Kelce for two-2025 second-round selections
- Kelce for Keon Coleman and two 2025 second-round selections
- Kelce for Jayden Reed
- Kittle for T.J. Hockenson
- Kittle for Brian Thomas
