Fantasy Football Week 6 Rankings: Jimmy Graham and the 3 Top TEs

Fantasy football owners tend to focus on who their starting quarterback, running backs and wide receivers will be each week, and with good reason. 

They're the flashy point-producers that were the top draft choices.

Not saying they are a total afterthought, but don't forget about your tight end. 

He can be the difference between a win and a loss. 

In today's pass-happy NFL, wide receivers aren't the only ones that have seen a spike in production. 

Here are the Week 6 top fantasy tight ends.

Jimmy Graham

College basketball players always seem to be fine NFL tight ends. Graham has rapidly become Drew Brees' go-to target because of his deceptive speed, huge frame and gigantic mitts. 

Even with Marques Colston back in the lineup, don't expect Graham's targets to go down against the Bucs—or for the remainder of the season (Graham is tied for third in the NFL with 48 targets this year).

The Buccaneers were thrashed by Vernon Davis last week which is the final reason I think Graham will have a monster game in Week 6. 

Jason Witten

The Patriots' pass defense is the worst in the league, and Witten has remained his best friend Tony Romo's favorite target no matter the situation. 

He has been as reliable as they come, catching six or more passes in every game this season, and without linebacker Jerod Mayo in the lineup for the Patriots, he should have a big afternoon.

Tony Gonzalez

Jermichael Finley is another obvious choice, but I think Gonzalez is flying under the radar a bit with all these young and extremely talented tight ends in the NFL today. 

Both Graham and Finley were very productive against the Panthers, and although they are far worse defending the run, teams have shown the ability to move the ball through the air against them.

Matt Ryan looks to Gonzalez often, especially in the red zone—remember that.
