Since they are so far above the other guys at the position, I feel like they may be worth it. The drop off in production after those two is pretty significant

What do the experts on this board say?

We play a flex with TEs. I will take both if I pick late first round.

Graham definitely.

Gronk maybe. Aaron Hernandez could be "the guy" next year. Plus the could add a potent WR

Going to have to think about this strategy a bit. How much does their production depend on a healthy Brady and Brees? I might take a shot like the other poster said of taking both with a late 1st and early 2nd if I can play them both.

on second thought taking both might be a stretch in 1 and 2. I am a HUGE fan of getting Rodgers,Brees,Brady then one of them. The idea of taking stud RB in rd 1 and him leading your team all year seem to be a bigger hit and miss every year. Seems like its been a lot of 2nd, 3rd rounders for the past few years that have really shined at RB. I'd rather go with sure things at QB, TE and be way better at those spots and then make adjustments to the other guys.

Looking at stats I'd say Gronk for sure in the late first round esp. in a PPR league.

Back end of the 1st round no doubt. You have to figure out of the WR/TE, its Megatron, Fitz, possibly AJ, then Gronk and Graham.

See what I think is they, and maybe Davis, are so much better statwise than the other TEs in the league. there are 5 stud QBs for stats at the least (probably more like 6-8), numerous RBs, tons of WRs

I just see them getting you so many more points than their counterparts it is worth it to have them

Yeah, Graham is also my top tight end next year. Brady was hooking up with Hernandez in a few different games and Gronk was relatively quiet in a couple. Graham is about as safe of a play as possible.

However, I am taking one of the premier QBs in the first next year. :nobessaysitisasuckermove:

Rodgers was money for me this year. Especially the way the league is trying to protect QBs, it's a safer pick IMO than an elite RB.

Preaching to the choir.

I am all about the stud QB.

My WR's/TE's board for Next year will look like this.

1. Megatron
2. Gronk
3. Graham
4. Andre Johnson
5. Fitzgerald
6. Roddy White

I have only played fantasy for a couple of years now and have never had a top WR. This was my first time getting a top qb (Brady) and I won my league.

Seems like the best WR's I have had still weren't that consistent. I will be looking at TE's early. At least those TE's.

I had Finley and Hernandez and they both outperformed my WR's all season.

I want a top qb a #1 rb then I will fill in the rest.
