TE Strategy

Just looking at some ADP ranking on TE's. Man, this is a DEEP TE group this year! Clark, Gates, Witten, Davis, Celek, Finley....if any of them would lead the league in fantasy pts at TE would you be shocked?

Even after that, Daniels, Gonzo, Winslow, Cooley......that is a deeper top 10 (in no particular order) that I can ever remember in the summer.

With the TE class looking great this year what does that do to your strategy? Are you trying to nab a guy at the top in rds 3-5 or wait in that 6-10 range and take advantage of the depth and stock up elsewhere early?
 
The only one I would grab if he was there in the 4th would be Clark. Clark put up monster reception and td numbers last year.
 
I'd treat Cluck as a high end #2 WR. If he was around in the 4th I'd grab him. Joe Bryant shows his ADP as being 4.4. I'd consider Gates late in the 4th, the others I'd wait for.

I really like Clark and Gates this year. Clark due to Gonzo not fully back, and Wayne holding out. Even with Wayne back he will be solid. Gates if he can get his foot healthy could be a beast, with the Wr situation and hold outs in SD.

Witten is an enigma. He was held in to block more last year...and until we see if they have the o-line fixed..not sure he is as prominent. Still will do very well. I agree with Davis and Celek here. I would also put Winslow up here as well. They will rely on young Wrs...and he will get alot of looks due to that.

Depending on where I draft (love the tail end......) I would look at early 4th round for TE if Clark or Gates were there.
 
I think the points that these guys can put up makes it important to get one of them.....but with as many of them that there seems to be, you can wait till the 6-8th and grab one and likely be pretty happy. I'll be sure to get one so I am not left out, but not going to be in a hurry to draft one of the elite TE's.
