2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Browns stood pat in the third round of April's draft and selected Tillman despite more pressing needs on the defensive line. Though the team had made moves to bolster the wideout corps earlier in the offseason, the Browns decided they couldn't pass on the 6-3, 215-pounder, who the club believes could be a red-zone threat for QB Deshaun Watson. Tillman had 12 TDs in 2021 before an ankle injury limited his availability in 2022. He'll need to earn his snaps among a crowded position group and is expected to start down the depth chart. As a result, the Tennessee product's rookie season may not provide much fantasy value, but Tillman could move into a starting role by 2024, if the Browns allow Donovan Peoples-Jones to walk.

January 17, 2024
Tillman (concussion) finished the 2023 season with 21 catches for 224 yards on 44 targets and added an eight-yard run.
ANALYSIS
Tillman dressed in 14 games as a rookie and took on a larger role down the stretch before missing last weekend's wild-card round playoff loss to the Texans due to a concussion. He's expected to be healthy for OTAs, and while the 2023 third-round draft pick out of Tennessee put up underwhelming numbers in his first NFL campaign, he could benefit from more stability at quarterback in his second season. Five quarterbacks started at least one game for the Browns in 2023: Deshaun Watson (shoulder), Dorian Thompson-Robinson (hip), PJ Walker, Joe Flacco and Jeff Driskel.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
May have sizable Week 18 role
WRCleveland Browns
December 28, 2023
Tillman, who recorded one catch for eight yards on four targets in Thursday night's win over the Jets, could enjoy a big Week 18 role against the Bengals if the Browns opt to rest one or both of top wideouts Amari Cooper and Elijah Moore.
ANALYSIS
Cooper was inactive for Thursday's game due to a heel injury, while Moore exited just before halftime with a head injury. With the Browns' postseason ticket punched and the likelihood of being locked into the No. 5 seed in the AFC, head coach Kevin Stefanski could opt to rest or notably limit the playing time of his top two wideouts and other key pass-catching assets such as tight end David Njoku. Such a scenario would theoretically thrust Tillman into the role of the de facto No. 1 receiver in versus Cincinnati.
