NFL Predictions Week 6: Jermaine Gresham and the 3 TEs Who Should Dominate

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Jermaine Gresham is maturing into one of the more reliable tight ends in the NFL today. 

He isn't quite at the "elite" level just yet, but has all the potential to get there very soon. 

Is he in for another big game against the Indianapolis Colts this Sunday?

Which other tight ends should dominate?

I'll start with Gresham... 

Jermaine Gresham

The Colts defense is ranked 28th against the pass through five games this season, allowing 254 yards per game. 

Opposing tight ends haven't had huge days when facing Indianapolis, but Kellen Winslow and Heath Miller had five catches each. 

Gresham is the most athletic tight end they've faced thus far and is a very integral part of the Bengals offense. He has a touchdown in each of the last two games and has had nine catches in that span. 

With the majority of the Colts' defensive game-plan focusing on A.J. Green, Gresham should be able to get open underneath against Indianapolis' Cover 2. 

Jimmy Graham

Expect Graham to make this type of list for the rest of the season, if not his career. 

He leads all tight ends in targets and receiving yards and has been Drew Brees' favorite option this season. 

The Buccaneers will try to drop their linebackers over the middle in their Tampa 2 scheme to eliminate Graham, but he's too quick off the line and has fantastic hands. This is in large part thanks to his basketball background.

Jason Witten

The Patriots have the worst pass defense in the league. Tony Romo is constantly looking for Witten and, even with Miles Austin returning, No. 82 is still the go-to-guy in the Cowboys offense. 

It's really that simple. 

Honorable mentions go to Jermichael Finley, Owen Daniels and Greg Olsen
