2011 NFL Divisional Round Fantasy Tight End Rankings

Ryan LesterJan 12, 2011

From John Carlson’s two touchdown performance to Todd Heap’s ten catch day, the unlikely TEs did the damage. Let’s take a look a the tight end rankings for the divisional round.

1. Rob Gronkowski, New England Patriots: Came on strong down the stretch averaging 56 yards and a score in the last four games.

2. Todd Heap, Baltimore Ravens: Coming off an monster game (ten catches, 108 yards). Should see a lot of check downs against the Steelers.

3. Aaron Hernandez, New England Patriots: Ripped the Jets for 152 yards and a score on nine catches.

4. Tony Gonzalez, Atlanta Falcons: Disappointed most of the year, but caught six passes for 51 yards and a score in Week 12 against the Packers.

5. Dustin Keller, New York Jets: Mixed results against the Pats this year. Led Jets with nine targets against the Colts. Should be active once again.

6. Greg Olsen, Chicago Bears: Mr. Inconsistent. Didn’t catch a pass in the first meeting with the Seahawks.

7. Heath Miller, Pittsburgh Steelers: Only had three catches for 43 yards in the two meetings with Baltimore.

8 John Carlson, Seattle Seahawks: Scored two touchdowns last week, but still managed just 17 yards. He’s not a strong bet to have another big game based on his season totals.

9. Andrew Quarless, Green Bay Packers: Rodgers does spread the ball around so he has a chance to produce. That also makes it harder to rely on him.
