There seem to be several options emerging at TE on the WW this week in many leagues, and based on posts in other threads I thought this might be a beneficial discussion to have for multiple owners. How do you rank these guys going forward? Here's how I see them:
1) Jermaine Gresham - Pros: talent (1st Round pedigree), opportunity (no one to split snaps with), also has a rookie QB that will use him as a safety valve; Cons: Bengals inconsistent offense
2) Ed Dickson - Pros: opportunity (bonafide starter), plays in an explosive offense, has a reasonable pedigree as a 3rd rounder in 2010; Cons: Are there enough balls to go around in the Baltimore offense with Rice, Boldin, Evans, et. al? May lead to some inconsistent performances.
3) Fred Davis - Pros: looked great vs. NYG, has had some past success when Cooley went down; Cons: Has Cooley waiting in the wings to vulture snaps/targets. Murky situation that may be best to avoid.
4) Scott Chandler - Pros: appeared to be a favorite target of Fitzpatrick, in an offense that may rely more on the pass than in the past, QB with relatively weak arm that may not take a ton of shots down the field; Cons: splits time with Buffalo's blocking TE, Martin. Journeyman who has not stood out in the past few years. Very likely flash in the pan/career week.
Anyone else with thoughts? I realize this is dangerously close to an AC Forum topic but it appears this could be a useful discussion for multiple owners.
