Why This Rating
✦ Blitz AI
John Bates rates 38.2, placing him 73rd among 103 tight ends, primarily due to limited opportunity and modest efficiency despite solid playing time. His snap share sits at the 57th percentile, but he ranks in the 35th percentile for opportunity blended and 39th percentile for context-adjusted efficiency, indicating he's neither getting nor making the most of his touches. His rating reflects a blend of his current 2.7 fantasy points per game across 9 games and his 2023 baseline season rated 48.4, with the current season weighted at 56% given the partial sample; the remaining gap stems from a recent trend sitting at the 40th percentile. He remains a lower-tier option at the position with injury concerns already surfacing late in the sample.
