Fantasy Value of the TIGHT END
Hello Everyone. Today we will take a look at the overall position statis of the TIGHT END.
The studs of the position stands the same with not many changes. You have Gates, Witten, Winslow, Dallas Clark, Gonzalez and maybe Heap if he recovers from an injury plagued year. If he does, he is a steal has he has fallen in all the mock drafts i have played.
Studs of the past who could make a rise to form are lead by Crumpler who has changed his colors from black to the baby blue of the Titans. He should be the perfect outlet for Young and i look for a solid fantasy year from Alge this year. Now Shockey is not helping fantasy owners pick him as no-one knows how this will play out, but Boss is a steal in the last round as he would be the guy in NY if Shockey isn't there come September. L.J. Smith is another who suffered fantasy statis thanks to injuries, but is still McNabbs best receiver when healthy.
Ben Utecht who is out of the shadow of Dallas Clark and into the shade of TJ and Chad in Cincinnati and giving Palmer another target. Another who has changed location is Anthony Fasano, hoping to make a name for himself in Miami and no longer playing second fiddle to Witten.
Ben Watson catches touchdowns, but not much of anything else so in the point per reception leagues he is near the bottom. The duo of Desmond Clark and Greg Olsen should struggle thanks to the poor Qb situation, but are both valuable if their was an offense to speak of in Chicago. In the same division you will find three up and comers in Campbell in Detroit, Shiancoe in Minnesotta and Donald Lee in Green Bay. Another starter who saw some of his touchdowns go to his back up was Heath Miller. Heath has been solid outlet for Big Ben starting from his rookie season.
Now for the disappointments. Could there be anyone bigger than Vernon Davis. With the Qb situation in San Fran i don't see it changing much this year. Eric Johnson should be doing better with Drew Brees as his Qb and Randy McMichael will hope for a full year from the whole offensive roster in St. Louis in order to live up to what everyone was expecting of him last year.
If i was a Raider Hater, and not a fan, i would still have to give some attention the Zach Miller in Oakland. When Russell was at the controls last year these two had something starting. Miller got better with every game he played and should get 6-8 touchdowns. Another to keep your eye is is Leonard Pope in Arizona.
