NFL Week 15 Fantasy Football TE Rankings: Jason Witten Takes Top Honors

Here are my Week 15 tight end rankings.

1. Jason Witten vs. Washington
2. Vernon Davis at San Diego (Thursday)
3. Jacob Tamme vs. Jacksonville
4. Chris Cooley at Dallas
5. Kellen Winslow vs. Detroit
6. Greg Olsen at Minnesota (Monday)
7. Kevin Boss at Philadelphia
8. Tony Gonzalez at Seattle
9. Rob Gronkowski vs. Green Bay
10. Owen Daniels at Tennessee
11. Brent Celek vs. New York Giants
12. Benjamin Watson at Cincinnati
13. Marcedes Lewis at Indianapolis
14. Aaron Hernandez vs. Green Bay
15. Dustin Keller at Pittsburgh
16. Brandon Pettigrew at Tampa Bay
17. Heath Miller vs. New York Jets
18. Ed Dickson vs. New Orleans
19. Jermaine Gresham vs. Cleveland
20. Jeremy Shockey at Baltimore 

Inside the numbers

• Jason Witten is averaging 70 yards and a touchdown in his past three games.

• Vernon Davis is really 1A. He’s been a beast the past two weeks and plays well when Alex Smith is starting, but the Chargers are the No. 1 pass defense.

• Greg Olsen has scored a touchdown the past two times he’s faced the Vikings.

• Hakeem Nicks returned, but Steve Smith (hamstring) and Mario Manningham (hip) got banged-up on Monday. Boss should remain a key option in the passing game.

• Antonio Gates is so frustrating. If he can go, he’ll likely have a big game, but he’s a gamble. They do play on Thursday, so you should get a feel whether or not he can play. If it looks promising, I’ll add him to the rankings.
