Fantasy Football Brother's takes a look at the tight end position for Week 16. If you are reading this, congratulations, but your work is far from over. For most of us, we are in fantasy depression, our team was good enough, we made all the right moves and decisions, only to have our players disappoint. More than one owner in your league thought he had what it took and more than one owner is saying wait 'til next year as he tries to decide between Matt Kemp and Justin Verlander in his dynasty fantasy baseball league. But you are not there yet....you stayed away from the light and were rewarded one more weekend in the sun to achieve fantasy glory. Let's not disappoint our loved ones....let's bring home that trophy to put on the mantle for the Holidays...okay, maybe not in most households, but I'm sure... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's welcomes owner's to what is the second round in most league's playoff system. The owner's that had the nice, comfy bye weeks are now on alert. There is nothing better than knocking one of these team's off their soapbox. If you are one of the lucky who was watching from the sidelines last week or spent the day of football with your significant other not paying attention to the games, you've been warned. You will be hunted by lower seed teams and we here at Fantasy Football Brother's are the secret weapon. Now, last week was again dominated by Rob Gronkowski who set the TD record for TE's and proved that he is simply a mismatch. He's also a hard man to bring down as evidenced by the Redskins tackling last week. He is again the top ranked TE going into Denver this week. Many... read more

Fantasy Football Brother's welcomes you to Week 14. If you made it this far, congratulations, but there is more work to be done. If you earned yourself a bye, a double congratulations. The tight end position continues to be the Gronk and Graham show. In fact, it's getting too easy to put these guys number one and two each week. This week should be no different as the Pats take on the Redskins and the Saints battle the Titans. Jermichael Finley finally showed up last week which was nice for fantasy owner's, maybe he will get on a roll and reward fantasy owner's who drafted him early. Yes, I'm thinking of myself here. Looking for a couple of sleepers in Week 14? While we suggest always starting your studs, we think Aaron Hernandez gets in on the fun this week, as well as... read more

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 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 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 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
