NFL Week 13 Fantasy TE Rankings: The Most In-Depth Analysis in the Industry

Week 13 TE Player Rankings
Brought to you by pyromaniac.com.
Rankings for QBs, RBs, and WRs.1. Jacob Tamme (vs Dal)
The Cowboys actually do pretty well at nfl jerseys
covering the tight end, but tight ends aren’t the same animal with Peyton Manning at the helm as they are with other teams. Play him at all costs. 2. Antonio Gates (vs Oak)
Gates is back, but to what extent will his injury hamper him? This remains to be seen. He came up with four catches for 46 yards in his return, so at least he’s off to a good start. ALWAYS take the chance on him when he steps out on the field. 3. Joel Dreessen (@ Phi)
Dreessen has been outstanding in relieving Owen Daniels, and I expect the trend to continue this week. The Eagles have a real tough time covering the tight end.
Look for Schaub and Dreessen to connect five-plus times for some good yardage and possibly, a TD this week. 4. Tony Gonzalez (@ TB)
Gonzo had 11 targets, eight catches and 72 yards in Week 9 against Tampa. Maybe he repeats the performance with a TD this time. 5. Kevin Boss (vs Was)
Boss should be the one Manning will depend on to pick up the slack this weekend. After his 74-yard and one TD last game, don’t be scared to start him once more. 6. Marcedes Lewis (@ Ten)
Not only is Lewis huge (6’6”, 275 pounds), but he’s relatively fluid as a receiver. The Titans are in the bottom quarter of the league in allowing fantasy points to tight ends, so Lewis looks to be a good play this week. 7. Dustin Keller (@ NE)
Keller had a MONSTER game against the Pats in the first contest, going off for seven catches, 115 yards and a TD.
Will he repeat those numbers?
Not bloody likely, but he could be in line for his best outing in two months. 8. Vernon Davis (@ GB)
Vernon is not the same Vernon that we saw last year. However, he’s still one of the most talented tight ends in the league.
If the Packers have any sort of weak spot on D, it might be in their coverage of opposing tight ends. 9. Aaron Hernandez (vs NYJ)
This could end up being a battle of Steelers jersey
the tight ends once again, like it was in Week 2.
Like Dustin Keller did in the first game, Hernandez went off for career-highs of six catches and 101 yards. My guess is that the Pats will run out a two tight end set for most of the game, with Rob Gronkowski acting as the blocker for most of the game.
Hernandez could be in line for a bunch of targets in this one. 10. Visanthe Shiancoe (vs Buf)
With Childress gone, Shiancoe put up the second most yards he’s had in the last nine games against the Redskins (three catches, 54 yards), and it looks like Favre is trying to get him going again as Shank garnered the most targets, six, of any Vikings receiver last week. 11. Brent Celek (vs Hou)
The Texans are awful in every aspect of defending the passing game, and that includes covering the tight end. Celek may have been a disappointment so far this year, but this game could be a whole different animal for the young tight end. 12. Tony Moeaki (vs Den)
Moeaki caught just one pass in his return last week, but that one catch happened to go for a TD. Expect more out of him in this game, as the Donkey’s allow the third-most fantasy points to tight ends this year. 13. Todd Heap (vs Pit)
Heap has been a real nice force for the Ravens this year, considering the Steelers rank toward the lower end of the league in allowing fantasy points to tight ends. He might turn out to be a great play this week. 14. Brandon Pettigrew (vs Chi)
I’m interested to see how Shaun Hill's injury affects Pettigrew’s growing tight end status.
It could really go either way as Stanton could either end up depending on him even more for dump-offs, or neglect him in search for Megatron and possible status-enhancement. Take a chance if you have to, but if you don’t, wait and see what happens for a week. 15. Jason Witten (@ Ind)
Witten put up 10 catches and 99 yards against the Saints last week, but don’t expect numbers anywhere close to that against a Colts D that has allowed the second fewest fantasy points to tight ends this year. 16. Chris Cooley (@ NYG)
Cooley continues to see a ton of football jersey
targets from McNabb, leading the team with eight last week. Although, his production is still a little on the light side.
Again, McNabb will have to pass the ball to win this game, so Cooley should have another chance to prove himself this week.Week 13 rankings for QBs, RBs, and WRs
There are no teams with TEs on a bye this week.
