Week 8 Tight End Rankings Analysis

Unlike A.J. Green or Calvin Johnson I feel really good about Jimmy Graham. He played last week in a limited fashion. I'm not really worried at all this week. He might not be 100% but he should be able to do damage. Travis Kelce & Jordan Cameron were quiet last week but both are still very talented players. They are probably than whatever other options you have.

The Bengals have been awful against tight ends. That makes Owen Daniels an excellent stream option this week. Delanie Walker started off the season on an excellent note. Over his last three games his best was 57 yards. This is more in line with what we can expect most weeks. He is not an every week fantasy starter. I like rookie Austin Seferian-Jenkins coming off bye. He is extremely talented and it has started to show.

Moving on to really deep leagues or 2TE leagues, Jermaine Gresham is seeing a ton of targets right now. Even if AJ Green plays I think that should continue. I continue to see no reason to think Jason Witten can turn things around. He is droppable in standard leagues. One deep sleeper at TE is Lance Kendricks. He has three touchdowns in the last four games and seems to be a red zone favorite of Austin Davis. I don't think he is threatening to take the job from Jared Cook but he can have value on his own.

Good luck in Week 8 RotoBallers!
