The New England Patriots signed Alabama TE C.J. Dippre to an Undrafted Free Agent contract after the 2025 NFL Draft. Dippre caught just 65 balls across four college seasons – two at Maryland and two at Alabama. His 21 catches and 256 yards last year both ranked third on a Tide offense that averaged just 236 passing yards per game. But Dippre averaged an underwhelming 1.26 yards per route – 17th among 21 TEs at the Combine. Dippre was a short-range target for both schools, with a career 5.0-yard average target depth. He at least averaged a strong 7.6 yards after catch per reception, including 8.8 last year. Dippre earned an 8.71 Relative Athletic Score at 256 pounds at the Combine, so he’s a good athlete. But his production profile ultimately leaves him as a long shot to emerge as a fantasy asset.
