2024 RTSports Outlook
Dortch did little the first half of last season but started to get more chances as the season wore on and had some good games along the way. He had double-digit fantasy points four of his last seven games. Dortch had multiple receptions six of those last seven games. He finished with 24 receptions for 280 yards and two touchdowns. He had 52 receptions the previous season and seems to have a pretty good rapport with starting quarterback Kyler Murray. The Cardinals have some openings at receiver this year, so Dortch could have a decent role from day one. He is a small receiver but has good speed and moves in space. He does well out of the slot and has a knack for getting open. And he has very good hands, having no drops for his entire career.
FANTASY OUTLOOK: Dortch could get some catches this season but probably won't be a huge fantasy factor. His ceiling is a little limited. He could get 40 receptions for 400 yards and a few scores.
RotoBaller's Outlook
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch barely played in the first half of the 2023 season but saw his snap counts rise toward 75% from Week 11 on. The opportunity arose due to Michael Wilson (shoulder) and Marquise Brown (heel) missing time, which saw Dortch top 11 PPR points in four games between Weeks 11-17. Kyler Murray returned from his torn ACL in Week 10 and showed chemistry with Dortch, who also had over 13 PPR points in four games out of five where he exceeded a 70% snap share in 2022. But he was mostly pushed to the bench in favor of Rondale Moore, who is now in Atlanta. Dortch has performed well when given starting reps and has a leg up on the slot role entering this season. But Marvin Harrison Jr. and Trey McBride are likely target alphas so volume is no sure thing, but Dortch's RotoBaller rank and PPR ADP are around WR100, making him a low-cost late dart in deeper drafts.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said that wide receiver Greg Dortch is going to have "a big year." "He speaks softly and carries a big stick," Gannon said. With Rondale Moore no longer in town, Dortch has been working with the first-team offense in training camp this summer after being a backup receiver each of the last two seasons. The 26-year-old slot receiver has had his moments as an injury replacement, though, especially in 2022, when he had a career season with 52 receptions on 64 targets for 467 yards and two touchdowns in 16 games (four starts). The former undrafted free agent has injury concerns himself because of his small 5-foot-7, 175-pound stature, but he could be a sleeper candidate worth looking into, especially with quarterback Kyler Murray fully healthy to begin the 2024 campaign.
From RotoBaller
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch is expected to have an expanded role in 2024, according to Bob McManaman of the Arizona Republic. Dortch has been a steady, reliable contributor to Arizona's wide receiver corps over his two seasons with the team. Now, even though Marvin Harrison Jr. will be the focal point of the offense, Dortch is expected to get plenty of looks. He'll operate ahead of Zay Jones and Chris Moore, instead mixing in with the likes of Harrison, Michael Wilson, and Trey McBride. The now-26-year-old had 23 catches for 278 yards over his final seven games last season, and he figures to rank as a high-end WR5 heading into fantasy football drafts this year.

Exclusive rights free-agent wide receiver Greg Dortch signed his one-year tender to stay with the Arizona Cardinals, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The move will keep Dortch in Arizona for at least one more season, and he could have the chance to contribute after the departure of DeAndre Hopkins and Marquise Brown over the last two offseasons. The 25-year-old was undrafted out of the class of 2019 and has been with five teams so far in his young NFL career. His only game action has come with the Cardinals since 2021, and he's totaled 79 receptions for 762 yards and four touchdowns in 39 games. The Cardinals are likely to draft Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers, or Rome Odunze in the upcoming NFL Draft, but for now, Michael Wilson and Chris Moore are the top wideouts on the roster alongside Dortch. He won't have high-end fantasy value, but he could be a deep-league depth option depending on how Arizona's 53-man roster shakes out.
From RotoBaller
The Arizona Cardinals tendered exclusive rights free-agent wide receiver Greg Dortch on Thursday. Dortch has flown under the radar in recent seasons but has produced quality numbers for the Cardinals when pushed into the starting lineup due to injuries in front of him. The 25-year-old has a chance at beating out Rondale Moore to be Arizona's starting slot receiver in the 2024 season as the Cardinals look to retool their pass-catching corps. Dortch caught 24 balls for 280 yards and two touchdowns last season and could be a deep sleeper in fantasy if he's able to unseat Moore in the upcoming year.
