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

My boss came to me the other day and said why would you tout yourself to subscribers we already have who can see the First Look Series. He said the point is to try and get new subscribers who can reap the benefits of all our hard work and research. So, this is basically what was written in the First Look. If you are already one of our loyal reader's, we thank you and hope the season is going well: The tight end position possibly gets Antonio Gates back this week, but we remain cautiously optimistic. The position saw the full return of Aaron Hernandez in Week 6 and he didn't disappoint. Jimmy Graham continues to be a beast and while we don't like to gloat, it's safe to say, "We told you so." Here's what we said about Graham in our Draft Kit: 6) Jimmy... read more

Even though these ranks are not set in stone it is always good idea to start planning ahead.  On Friday we will post our our final ranks for Week 7. If you cannot see this article, it's because you haven't taken advantage of our services. We are steam rolling ahead into Week 7 and we have received much feedback from our reader's who say they are in turn steam rolling the competition in their leagues. The tight end position possibly gets Antonio Gates back this week, but we remain cautiously optimistic. The position saw the full return of Aaron Hernandez in Week 6 and he didn't disappoint.

Fantasy Football Brother's offers up the final ranks heading into Week 6. The tight end postion continues to be an added bonus for fantasy owner's. But Week 5 was a rough week for a lot of highly ranked tight ends. Many struggled and many just weren't a part of their teams' game plan. Some surprised and some didn't. Some are becoming droppable and some are becoming must adds. As we have said before, we must look back before we can look forward. Here are the STUDS and DUDS of Week 5. There wasn't a lot of solid performing tight end's in Week 5, in fact it can be considered the worst week for the position this season. STUDS: Joel Dreessen-Texans-5 rec., 112 yards, 1 TD on 9 targets-WHAT? I have a feeling he could find himself in the DUDS this week. Vernon Davis-49ers-3 rec., 39 yards, 2 TD's on 3 targets-The targets are... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's offers up our First Look Series for our loyal subscriber's. It's our way of saying thank you and it helps relieve some anxiety going into next week. That way you don't go off on the guy at the water cooler who beat you because Jahvid Best had a career day! That's another story though... The tight end position has lost Antonio Gates, but it gets a shot in the arm, not that it needed one, with the return of Aaron Hernandez of the Patriots. Hernandez should be back in beast mode in no time at all. Jermaine Gresham is proving to be a top pass catcher, as is Greg Olsen is finally in an offense to utilize his skill set. I'm glad to see he didn't rot in a Mike Martz' offense in Chicago. Here are the First Look Week 6 TE Ranks: 1) Jermichael Finley... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's looks at the Tight End Final Ranks for Week 4. The postion continues to be one where fantasy owner's can find extra points week to week. Antonio Gates owner's should be concerned as his foot is not getting better. There is a thought that he might miss the season if surgery is indeed necessary. We again take a look at the Studs and Duds from Week 3. As always we take a look back before we can look forward to Week 4. STUDS: Jermichael Finley-Packers-7 rec., 85 yards, 3 TD's on 8 targets-This is what Finley owner's were waiting for. Rob Gronkowski-Patriots-7rec., 109 yards, 2 TD's on 9 targets-He continues to be out of this world productive. Jimmy Graham-Saints-4 rec., 100 yards, 1 TD on 8 targets-We had him ranked number one last week and he didn't disappoint. Owen Daniels-Texans-5 rec., 76 yards, 1 TD on 9 targets-Daniels is Option... read more

It's Week 4 in the NFL and Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the rankings in our First Look Series. The list this week is led by the Packers' Jermichael Finley who had 3 TD's last week and looks to build on that production going forward. We had the Saints' Jimmy Graham in the top spot last week and he didn't disappoint fantasy owner's. Speaking of disappointment, Antonio Gates owner's were feeling the loss, hopefully you found a good replacement for his production, say the Steelers' Heath Miller or the Bills' Scott Chandler. Fantasy owner's should continue to monitor the status of the Charger's Antonio Gates heading into the week. This Friday these ranks will be solidified for Week 4. Here are the First Look Ranks: 1) Jermichael Finley - GRE - TE, vs. Denver Broncos, Sun 4:15 PM 2) Rob Gronkowski - NEP - TE, at Oakland Raiders, Sun 4:15 PM 3)... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the Tight End rankings for Week 3. Last week there were some disappointments in the position, but there were also some pleasant surprises. We take you through the Studs and Duds of Week 2 before we get to our Week 3 Rankings. STUDS: Tony Gonzalez-Falcons-7 rec., 83 yards, 2 TD's on 9 targets-It was nice to see the Godfather of the modern tight end back in form. Dustin Keller-Jets-6 rec., 101 yards, 1 TD on 6 targets-Keller has been a pleasant surprise for fantasy owner's so far. The Jets run game is struggling and Keller is reaping the benefits. Fred Davis-Redskins-6 rec., 86 yards, 1 TD on 7 targets-If Davis is still on your league's waiver wire, go get him now. Rob Gronkowski-Patriots-4 rec., 86 yards, 2 TD's on 6 targets-This is getting to be a weekly thing, we just wonder how he... read more
