Division Round – TE Rankings

Aaron Hernandez vs. Broncos - The last time New England faced the Broncos (less than a month ago); they did a good job of taking away Wes Welker and Rob Gronkowski as they dared Tom Brady to beat them with other weapons. Aaron Hernandez made them pay with nine receptions for 129 yards and a score, proving he more than capable of hurting opposing defenses. Other the final three weeks, Hernandez had two games ...

Another playoff fantasy football challenge is upon us as drafts are going on throughout this week, in preparation for the beginning of the post season on Saturday. While I put together player rankings for each position to get you set for the wild-card round, I've gone ahead and put together a cheat sheet for all players in the entire playoffs. While many of you will likely play on ESPN, NFL.com or other maj ...

Wild Card Round – TE Rankings

Jimmy Graham vs. Lions - When it comes to selecting a tight end for the first round of the 2012 playoff fantasy football contest, it has to begin and end with Jimmy Graham of the Saints. Only one player at this position was better than Graham, in Rob Gronkowski through the regular season, and he had a touchdown record setting year at the position. Not only are the Saints a high-scoring offense, but they wil ...

Week 17 TE Rankings

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 ...

Week 16 – TE Rankings

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 ...

Week 15 – TE Rankings

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 ...

Week 14 – TE Rankings

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 ...

Week 13 – TE Rankings

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 ...

Tight End Crapshoot

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 ...

Week 10 – TE Rankings

Vernon Davis vs Giants - Another disappointing season from Vernon Davis as the 49ers have been asking him to block more. Truthfully, last week could've been a nice game as Davis had a long reception down the field in his hands, but he failed to haul it in. Drops have been an issue for Davis throughout his career, but I feel like he might have a nice game this week. The Giants are coming to town and playing ...
