Jason Witten @ Giants - If you look at Jason Witten's body of work this season, he's been a solid top five fantasy tight end. That said, Witten has failed to score a touchdown since week eleven and has total 47 yards or fewer in four of his last five games. Factor in that Tony Romo will be playing with a busted hand, and you have a tough decision to make, if you've been starting Witten weekly this year. As ...

Aaron Hernandez vs. Dolphins - With Rob Gronkowski having a record-setting season, it's easy to forget that the Patriots have another talented tight end in Aaron Hernandez, but against the Broncos, it was Hernandez that had the big game. For the second time, this year Hernandez posted over 100 yards receiving and scored his first touchdown in the last six weeks. While it's unlikely that Hernandez will come ...

Owen Daniels vs. Panthers - What seemed like a death blow to Owen Daniels fantasy stock, has turned into the possible beginnings of a resurge with rookie quarterback T.J. Yates under center. Daniels tied Kevin Walter for targets with ten against he Bengals as he consistently exploited Cincinnati over the middle for most of the game, and made a few nice receptions on the teams final drive to victory. Yates r ...

Jermichael Finley vs. Raiders - Finally we saw a quality performance from Packers' tight end Jermichael Finley as the Giants allowed attempted to force Rodgers to beat them by limiting his opportunities to Jordy Nelson and Greg Jennings. This is probably the best strategy to slow down the Packers, but when you have Finley, Driver and solid depth beyond that, this offense is still going to post 35 points or ...

Jermaine Gresham @ Steelers - Maybe it's easy to look past Jermaine Gresham in fantasy leagues with tight ends like Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham having monster seasons, but this fellow second year tight end is starting to put together a decent year. After missing a couple of games due to injury, Gresham has come back to have no less than three receptions, and if not for a questionable (at least in my eye ...

This year, I decided to forego the draft strategy of picking a tight end in the first seven rounds. My thought process was rather simple. I didn’t trust Dallas Clark without Peyton Manning; nor did I trust Antonio Gates to stay healthy. So far, so good! Tony Gonzalez is getting up there in age which is true, but he’s still getting the job done. I didn’t expect Alex Smith to be successful so that downgraded ...

It seems like Vernon Davis is falling out of favor as one of the true elite tight ends for fantasy football based on the 49ers struggles from 2010, and the projected issues they might have this season. As a 49er fan, I can tell you that recent years have been hard to watch, but I can promise you that new Head Coach Jim Harbaugh's offensive scheme and play calling will be superior to the garbage this team ha ...

Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis was finally used as a focal point in the passing game, and became a starter for fantasy owners on a weekly basis. While the tight end position doesn't produce as many sleeper options as receiver or running back, you can still find a few possible breakout options every year. Below I have selected those tight ends I feel are undervalued sleepers coming into the 2011 fantasy fo ...

While Antonio Gates is still the top tight end going in recent mock drafts, it's hard to believe that he will play a full sixteen games this year. At least Gates found the practice field over the weekend and reportedly had a smile on his face after his workout was complete. For those of you that are familiar with ESPN's podcast the Fantasy Focus, physical therapist Stephania Bell comes onto the show, every ...

While I have my doubts about Michael Turner holding up past this season, he still makes for one of the better pure touchdown makers in fantasy football. Understanding this, it makes perfect sense to target Turner as one of the top five running backs to select in touchdown only leagues, and a clear first round pick. The Falcons are set to make a run for the division title once again, and while they may lose ...
