Full PPR flex option if he and Tyler Shough pan out. Boom bust.
With draft capital baked in, Tyson pops in as a 95th-97th percentile WR prospect in my model, depending on if you want to discount it some given the bad class. His odds of fantasy relevance are high for as long as that near knee dislocation and lingering hamstring don't pop up again. Tyson is a salesman route runner, particularly underneath and intermediate, and can haul in some acrobatic catches with his loose athleticism. He is a dense receiver with the ball in his hands when he wants to be, and there's hope that he plays with more intensity in the pros after routinely sliding/diving after the catch at Arizona State. His fit behind Chris Olave is a nice one. Olave is a better downfield receiver with a more consistent release package, but Tyson can work underneath him and be a factor in the red zone where Olave's slenderness historically has worked against him. Coach Kellen Moore has a deep history getting the most out of flanker/slot types like Tyson, and there's moderate optimism around Tyler Shough after his rookie campaign. The ranges of outcomes remain wide on Tyson, but there is a path to fantasy WR3/flex value, especially given Olave's own injury concerns.
