Notes
~Take a good long look at the top 14 TEs on this list....keep looking....look really hard. If you are the first person to draft a TE at any of your drafts, my hand will appear out from your cheat sheets and smack you upside your head!!! Seriously, JerMicheal Finley, Brent Celek, and Dustin Keller have every bit of potential to perform as well as Dallas Clark, Antonio Gates, or Vernon Davis (the likely top 3 TE selections).
~You can comfortably be one of the last owners to draft a starting TE, maybe as late as round 14.
~Expect Vernon Davis' TD totals to be less than last season. His TD per reception ratio was pretty high.
~As good as Brent Celek was last season, he could improve if Donovan McNabb gets traded and Kevin Kolb is his QB. In the two games Kolb started for the injured McNabb (weeks 2 and 3), Celek posted two of his three best weeks of the year, catching 8 balls for 104 in each of those games and 1 TD in one of them.
~Tony Gonzalez can still play.
~Kellen Winslow is currently not only the best receiving option for Josh Freeman, but practically the only reliable receiving option. The Bucs need to seriously address their WR corp in the draft and free agency in order keep Winslow from being harrassed by opposing defenses, every passing down.
~Mike Martz does not use TEs often in his system, therefore Greg Olsen's stock is falling. However, given the WRs Martz has to work with, he may consider lining Olsen up wide or in the slot in 3 or 4 WR sets.
~A few young TEs are up-and-coming, and although they may not be drafted, they could be hot waiver wire commodities throughout the season. I'm talking about Shawn Nelson, Jared Cook, and Zach Miller (the second year guy from JAC).
~Unfortunately, Fred Davis will be the second TE option behind a healthy Chris Cooley.
~Chances are that all three TEs from the Panthers--Dante Rosario, Jeff King, Gary Barnidge--will go unnoticed during your fantasy drafts. All three have had decent outputs and have decent upside and the potential to be solid TE2s. Whichever one emerges as the primary receiving TE (likely Rosario), they could be a decent bye week/injury replacement.
