Fantasy Football Brother's offers up our Week 13 Tight End Rankings. The position continues to be a nice source of points for fantasy owner's. They are either giving owner's that extra oomph, if that's a word, or they are filling in nicely as a receiver two, sometimes a receiver one in most cases. As I said in First Look this week, the G and G boys, Gronk and Graham continue to make a mockery of NFL defenses. The Brother's look for the trend to continue as the Patriots take on the Luck-less Colts* ( pardon the expression) and the Saints battle the Lions. *In case you were born under a rock, there is popular belief that the Colts are throwing this season to win the Andrew Luck Sweepstakes. In case you don't follow NCAA Football, Luck... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's offers our First Look Series. This week we take a sneak peek at the tight end position for Week 13 in the NFL. It's getting to be do or die time, put up or shut up time across the fantasy landscape as owner's jockey for playoff position. The tight ends continue to impress and Rob Gronkowski of the Patriots and Jimmy Graham of the Saints are option 1 and 1A every week. They are dominant on the football field and they play for coaches who know how to utilize their immense skill set. Other tight ends such as Jermaine Gresham of the Bengals are just quietly putting up great fantasy seasons, while some such as Dallas Clark of the Colts are memories of yesteryear. Owen Daniels of the Texans will be playing with whoever at quarterback and his stock takes... read more
Fantasy Football Brother's would like to take the time to wish all our reader's a Happy Thanksgiving. We know there is a great slate of games on Turkey Day, in fact the best we can remember in quite some time, but we should stop and take the time to give thanks. Granted our country is in the crapper and world markets are collapsing, unemployment is at an all time high, but in the end there is football, which we almost didn't have. Be thankful this isn't the NBA..... Rob Gronkowski of the Patriot's again tops our list as he and Jimmy Graham battle it out for fantasy supremacy at the position. Let's get to the ranks.... Week 12 Tight End Rankings: 1) Rob Gronkowski - NEP - TE, at Philadelphia Eagles, Sun 4:15 PM 2) Jimmy Graham - NOR - TE, vs. New York Giants, Mon 8:30 PM 3) Jason Witten -... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's offers up our final ranks for Week 11 Tight Ends. Rob Gronkowski of the Patriots remains in the top slot as he should have a field day against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football. There was a great deal of movement at the tail end of the rankings as there were some injuries that shuffled guys up and down the ranks. The most serious injury being Jeremy Shockey of the Panthers who is doubtful with a rib injury. The teams on byes this week are the Indianapolis Colts, New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Houston Texans. Please adjust your roster accordingly. Here are the Week 11 Tight End Ranks: 1) Rob Gronkowski - NEP - TE, vs. Kansas City Chiefs, Mon 8:30 PM 2) Jason Witten - DAL - TE, at Washington Redskins, Sun 1:00 PM 3) Aaron Hernandez - NEP - TE, vs. Kansas City Chiefs,... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's rolls into Week 11 with our First Look Series. In many leagues the playoff picture is starting to take shape, good teams are starting to rise to the top and mediocre teams are just trying to hang on. There are many good tight end's on byes this week. Most notable Jimmy Graham of the Saints, but there is also Owen Daniels of the Texans, as well as Heath Miller of the Steelers. The Colts are also on a bye this week if anyone cares. Rob Gronkowski gets the top spot this week and it doesn't look like that will change going into the weekend. The guy is simply amazing on the football field and really seems to be uncoverable. The only times teams shut him down is when he is asked to block in the Patriots non-existant run game, and he is even an excellent... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the final TE Rankings for Week 10 in the NFL. The Thursday night games have started and FFB was disappointed as we had Antonio Gates as our number one ranked TE this week. We don't know what is wrong with that team, but the window of winning is rapidly closing in the AFC West for this disappointing Charger's squad. It makes us wonder, how in the hell does Norv Turner still have a job? We are also expecting a big week out of the Packers Jermichael Finley. The Pack take on the Minnesota Vikings in a Monday night clash. Finley has been a big disappointment so far, but we think he gets on track Monday night. Here are the TE Ranks for Week 10: 1) Antonio Gates - SDC - TE, vs. Oakland Raiders, Thu 8:20 PM Gates had a statline of... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's offers our subscribers a sneak peek at the week ahead. Fantasy owner's need to remember that Thursday night football starts this week with the San Diego Chargers traveling to Oakland to take on the Raiders. It's a classic AFC West rivalry game. Antonio Gates sits atop the rankings and it seems like old times. If Gates can remain healthy, he could be a much needed boost to fantasy teams who held on to him when his season looked bleak. He should reward fantasy owner's this week as QB Philip Rivers may have finally pulled his head out of his arse, granted he did throw 3 picks. Here are the 1st Look Ranks for the TE position entering Week 10: 1) Antonio Gates - SDC - TE, vs. Oakland Raiders, Thu 8:20 PM 2) Jason Witten - DAL - TE, vs. Buffalo Bills, Sun 1:00 PM 3)... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's takes our final look at the tight end position for Week 9. There wasn't a whole lot of movement up and down the ranks, besides us still probably overvaluing Jermichael Finley. Jimmy Graham nabs the top spot, it's getting to be pretty common to see his name there now days and we are running out of Jimmy Graham pictures. Jason Witten gets the #2 slot and let's hope the Cowboy's offense looks sharper than it did last week vs. the Philadelphia Eagles. It can't get any worse, right? There was a Brent Celek (Brotherhood favorite) sighting last week, but the Brother's love the potential of Jake Ballard. While watching tape of Jake Ballard in the lab, Bill wondered if there was anyone who plays the game more stiff than Ballard. I retorted that he has a great set of hands and... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's offers up our 1st Look Series to our subscribers. It's a good way to get a glimpse of how your team might perform come next Sunday, as well as scouting out your opponent's lineup. Jimmy Graham is at the top of the list this week and after a subpar showing last weekend, the Brother's are betting that he can't be stopped two weeks in a row. It's a law of averages really. Remember, this week is the bye weeks for the following teams: Detroit Lions, Minnesota Vikings, Carolina Panthers and Jacksonville Jaguars. Adjust your roster accordingly. Here are the 1st Look Tight End Ranks for Week 9: 1) Jimmy Graham - NOR - TE, vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Sun 1:00 PM 2) Jason Witten - DAL - TE, vs. Seattle Seahawks, Sun 1:00 PM 3) Rob Gronkowski - NEP - TE, vs. New York Giants, Sun 4:15 PM 4)... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a peek at the Week 8 Tight End Ranks. There are some notable TE's with bye weeks this week that includes: Tony Gonzalez (Falcons), Jermichael "Bust" Finley (Packers), Dustin Keller (Jets), and Kellen Winslow (Bucs). We were spot on with Jimmy Graham last week against the Colts. We would say 6 receptions for 54 yards with 2 TD's satisfied owner's last week. Graham continues to be a "beast" and he plays with a quarterback and coach who understand how to utilize his freakish abilities. This week we have Jason Witten as our top TE choice. The Eagles in the past had the linebackers that could do a decent job on Witten. This season that has been a position of concern for the Eagles. The Brother's don't see how they can address Witten doing his best work in the middle of the field with a healthy... read more
