Week 8 Rankings: TEs (aka Everythings Sucks)

The top guys on this list all play against the top fantasy-TE-defenses in the league. All the top guys on this list except Jimmy Graham and Heath Miller. Graham is hurt and may not play, and nobody listens when I tell them to pick up Miller. And that, is why everything sucks.

Rank	Tight End	Opp	Comments
1	Jimmy Graham	@DEN	Even if he's limited, he's a great play facing a Bronco defense that's third-worst against TEs.
2	Heath Miller	WSH	Leads all TEs in redzone targets. The guy's somehow still available in 15% of leagues!
3	Rob Gronkowski	@STL	Finally getting things going and that won't stop against the Rams.
4	Vernon Davis	@ARI	Put up a goose-egg last week and the Cardinals are good against TEs but he's still their best receiver
5	Antonio Gates	@CLE	Browns only rank high against TEs because they're too busy sucking against everything else.
6	Aaron Hernandez	@STL	They ran their offense through him pre-injury, so they'll slowly get back to that.
7	Tony Gonzalez	@PHI	He's the most targeted TE in all of football. Matchups don't affect that.
8	Kyle Rudolph	TB	Put up a zero last week so depending on redzone work here.
9	Martellus Bennett	@DAL	He's heating up and he scored against them in Week 1.
10	Jason Witten	NYG	Giants will be diverting defensive attention elsewhere with WRs and Felix Jones.
11	Dustin Keller	MIA	He showed up last week like I said he would. The redzone work is enough to start him.
12	Brandon Pettigrew	SEA	He's been a huge disappointment lately but with SO MUCH attention going elsewhere, he has to step up.
13	Greg Olsen	@CHI	Cam's got to throw to someone. Why not Olsen?
14	Brent Celek	ATL	He started the season off well but dropped off. Vick should be getting back to him after the bye.
15	Chris Cooley	@PIT	If Cooley plays, he'll be replacing the second-highest-targeted player on the team in Fred Davis.
16	Anthony Fasano	@NYJ	The Jets haven't defended TEs well at all so hopefully Tannehill looks his way more.
17	Jacob Tamme	NO	Anyone's a viable option against this defense.
18	Coby Fleener	@TEN	Titans are worst in the league against opposing fantasy tight ends.
19	Jermichael Finley	JAC	Mr Inconsistent. He's not even a big enough name at this point to get someone to bite on a trade,
20	Jared Cook	IND	The Colts are usually busy giving up points to every other position but that could change.
21	Joel Dreessen	NO	Seems to vulture TDs all the time. Why stop now versus this ghost defense.
22	Marcedes Lewis	@GB	Packers defense is in shambles and he's really the only receiving option besides that Shorts guy.
23	Dwayne Allen	@TEN	Fleener's higher but Allen has more versatility. Could pay off.
24	Rob Housler	SF	He's super-athletic and Skelton has to start looking his way soon.
25	Lance Kendricks	NE	Patriots are terrible against opposing tight ends but he's not exactly high on the targets list for Bradford.
