1) Antonio Gates - SDC - TE A healthy Gates should produce another great year for fantasy owners in 2010. I expect his targets to increase with V Jack out, and with Mathews unproven in the backfield. 2) Dallas Clark - IND - TE The best offense in football should continue to utilize Clark's cathing abilities. His preseason injury concerns still linger, but we expect him to be healthy and have a solid game against Houston. 3) Jermichael Finley - GRE - TE Finley continues to be a fantasy favorite going into 2010. With Rodgers looking his way, and fresh memories of the end of 2009, we expect J-Fin to start off where he left off. If he can stay healthy, he could easily crack the top 5 this year. 4) Jason Witten - DAL - TE Although he is coming off... read more

A top 200 ranking is an essential tool that every fantasy owner should use to help dominate their draft. It helps owners gauge a players overall value instead of his positional value. As usual, we went a little bit deeper and ranked the top 240 players. We feel it was important to rank every player that could become relevant at some point during the season. I left out defenses and kickers because my colleague Rob has already covered them extensively in his positional write ups. We will continue to update these rankings as the season approaches. Top 240 1) Chris Johnson - TEN - RB 2) Adrian Peterson - MIN - RB 3) Maurice Jones-Drew - JAC - RB 4) Ray Rice - BAL - RB 5) Frank Gore - SFO - RB 6) Andre Johnson - HOU - WR 7) Aaron Rodgers - GRE - QB 8) Michael Turner - ATL - RB 9) Drew Brees - NOR -... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's would like to remind everyone that our Brotherhood All-Access Membership is available. Don't be left out in the cold when it comes to sit/start questions during the season. A peace of mind is priceless and we are here to take your questions and offer our own personalized feedback. Plus you get our draft tool which will help you dominate your draft. The tight end position has turned into one of the deepest positions in the NFL. While there are four really solid options who will always start the tight end run in most drafts, smart and savvy owners know they can wait and get one in the later rounds that will offer them great value with huge upside. When another owner wastes his pick on a TE, it just means somebody you like or need will... read more
The tight end position is extremely deep this season and it's a position fantasy owner's can wait on to address other needs during the draft. For those of you looking for a sleeper, look to the left and see Tony Moeaki of the Kansas City Chiefs. I have to admit I'm higher on Moeaki than most people at FFB. I even think he might be a little low here. The Chief's don't have a pass catching tight end and haven't had one since Tony Gonzalez left town. Moeaki was a solid pass catcher at Iowa who played in a pro style offense, but injuries plagued him throughout his career. If he can stay healthy and the Chief's offense can be better than it was last year, then what we have here is a bona fide sleeper. Be on the lookout for our draft kit which will give more... read more
With OTA’s underway, and fantasy football fanatics gearing up for their respective drafts, it’s now time for true in-depth ranks. Today, we will take a look at the Tight End (TE) position. As you may or may not know, injuries seem to be the talk of the town for TE’s lately. Big names like Antonio Gates, Owen Daniels, and Kellen Winslow are all finding themselves on injury reports, which in turn seems to be having dramatic effects on rank boards. Some of these guys are IR junkies, but others are worth keeping an eye on. Antonio Gates seems to be the most closely watched due mostly to the fact that he has the most to lose! His nagging foot and ankle injuries are nothing new, and don’t seem to effect his time on the field, but... read more

Last week we released our 1ST LOOK 2010 positional dynasty rankings. We’ll start this week off by wrapping up our ranks with the tight ends. Tight ends are usually an afterthought in fantasy football and especially in dynasty leagues. It’s not that the position is less important than any of the others; it’s the fact that most fantasy leagues only require you to start one. It’s simply all about supply and demand. A larger emphasis is put on wide receivers, running backs and quarterbacks. With a premium put on these positions it’s easy to see why tight ends lose significant value when it’s time to select your keepers. There is no need to use one of your important keeper slots on a player who plays a position that more... read more

With the wild card round in the rear view mirror, we can look forward to this weekends divisional match ups. The tight end position is stacked at that top but thins out very quickly after the first four options. We know what we're getting out of Dallas Clark. He is the unquestioned top option for tight ends and a threat to post gaudy numbers every time he steps on the field. He is the only guy in these ranks that I totally trust. He's in a tier all by himself. The second tier starts with Gates. He is a safe and consistent option at a position that is as important as any other in fantasy football. Rivers trusts him and looks his way often. Shiancoe has emerged as one of Favre's favorite red zone target and also doubles as a safety net in the... read more

Just when you think you're out.... They pull you back in! Going though fantasy withdrawal? Sad you didn't take home your league title? The post-season provides us all with an opportunity to make up for a disappointing season, or to add to an already dominant one. It allows us fantasy junkies to get one last high before going into hibernation for the off-season. Post-season success comes with the culmination of numerous factors: proper playoff forecasting, relying heavily on your studs, picking up appropriate sleepers, and as always - a little bit of luck. Let's take a look at some of this years sleepers that may be the key factor in contributing to your post-season dominance. Players that have made this list are those whom are either not well known, are getting an opportunity because of an injury, returning... read more

Fantasy Football Brothers has turned its' focus to the NFL Playoffs. Many fantasy owners are somewhat new to Playoff Leagues, but it is challenging and keeps the fantasy flame burning for a short while. So grab your friends and plan a draft night, because it is time to pull out the cheatsheets all over again. These ranking are in depth and they provide for the leagues that do select backups at their respected positions. Fantasy Football Brothers takes a look at the Tight End rankings for 2009 Playoff Leagues and these rankings are done by a last man standing type rules. This of course means the highest ranked players we believe will go the furthest in the NFL Playoffs. If you own Dallas Clark and the Colts are knocked out, you are done getting points from the tight end position. While... read more

Week 17 is here, and for most leagues, the championship has already been decided. We can rest easy (with Peyton Manning and the Colts.. Booo) as we wait for the playoff picture to unravel. Our next fantasy mission: Draft a team for our fantasy playoffs. With that being said, week 17 is certainly the most difficult to rank. Studs are being benched, rookies are being started to prove their worth, and the word "normal" is the farthest from the truth. So, read these ranks with a grain of salt, and beware that if certian studs do play, it may be for a limited time. Have a sit/start, or waiver wire question? – Send it in.
