what receiving threat is your pick after Davis (1 Viewer)

I see a lot of rookie drafts where it comes down to these 3. In most leagues, TEs are usually double WR for points per reception. Either 1/2 to 1.....or 1 to 2.......With that said, who do you think the fantasy pick is.

I like Holmes' situation. Ward isn't getting any younger, and I think he will be another Ward type, if not better.......key thing is......eventually.

Jackson is a speedster, but there's too much reminding me here of Bethel Johnson. Plus we've harped all along about NE wrs and their fantasy value.

And then, the guy I think I would pick of these 3, M.Lewis. This guy has all the tools, the size, the speed and finally gives Byron somebody to check down to. And no Kyle Brady was not a good TE for Jax. With the lack of WR production in Jax other than Smith, I could see this guy help out. Imagine a starting WR core of Matt Jones, Wilford, and Lewis, all guys 6'4 and above and very fast, mismatch central.

What do you guys think?

I think they're all quality prospects.

A lot of people compare Vernon Davis to Antonio Gates, but I actually think Marcedes Lewis is a closer approximation in terms of playing style. He may not rack up the yardage numbers, but he's going to be a beast in the red zone. He's like a basketball player at TE.

Holmes is in a good situation with a good QB. Pittsburgh isn't known to throw very often, but I think they'll gradually open things up a bit and you simply can't ignore their excellent track record with their first round picks.

Jackson has a little more upside than Holmes, but is not as polished and is not as likely to make an immediate impact. He should eventually become New England's #1 WR.
