Max Klare Fantasy Stats

Los Angeles Rams tight end Max Klare is an intriguing dynasty option because of his second-round draft capital, but the team's crowded position room could make it very challenging for him to contribute right away. The Rams drafted Terrance Ferguson last year, and it seemed like this offseason represented a prime opportunity for them to trim down their tight end room and bring some clarity to the position. Instead, they re-signed Tyler Higbee and drafted Klare. The unit now consists of Colby Parkinson, Higbee, Klare, and Ferguson. It's unclear whether even one of those tight ends will be able to emerge as fantasy relevant, let alone multiple. The draft capital is intriguing with Klare, but we doubt he'll be able to contribute right away, given the experience of the tight ends around him. Klare could be the Rams' tight end of the future, though, so managers could afford to select him in rookie drafts if they're willing to be patient with his development.

The Los Angeles Rams have selected Ohio State tight end Max Klare with the 61st overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Klare played the first three seasons of his collegiate career at Purdue before transferring to Ohio State for his redshirt junior season. Across 14 games with the Buckeyes in 2025, Klare recorded 43 receptions for 448 yards and two touchdowns. With Colby Parkinson, Tyler Higbee, Terrance Ferguson, Davis Allen, and Klare, the Rams have one of the deepest tight end rooms in the NFL. While Los Angeles utilized two and three-tight end personnel at a very high rate in 2025, it will likely still be difficult for Klare to see much playing time or target volume as a rookie.
