Dennis Morris, Louisiannna Tech Bulldogs, runs in for a touchdown against Hawaii Rainbow Warriors

1. Kyle Efaw, Boise State 
The youngster received a good amount of playing time last year with the injury to starter Chris O’Neill, and he showed glimpses of big-time talent. With a year to mature, he should be in store for a big season in 2009. The tight end position has often been a key spot for the Bronco offense, and it is even more so with the way that quarterback Kellen Moore checks down and goes through his progressions. Efaw is the receiving threat out of the Bronco TE rotation, which makes him a good fantasy pick-up. 

2. Dennis Morris, Louisiana Tech 
The Bulldogs graduated two tight ends off last year’s team, which should mean increased playing time for Morris. A big body at 6’2″, 226 pounds, Morris averaged 22 yards per catch last year with a touchdown. 

3. Terrance Williams, San Jose State 
The good news is that Williams was San Jose State’s second leading receiver last year. The bad news is that being San Jose State’s second leading receiver only meant having more than 200 yards. Williams finished with 288, and with the loss of senior David Richmond, Williams will be the leading receiver who returns this fall. Chances are good that SJSU quarterbacks will look his way again; it’s just hard to tell if that means much.  Read the rest of this entry →
