CHEATSHEET v1: Top 21 Fantasy College Tight Ends
By Vince Mullins | July 11, 2008
Ah, the underappreciated and traditionally ignored fantasy college football position of TE.
Some systems treat the position as third tackles, others put 210-pound bulked up WRs at the position. Missouri likes to split their TE out wide, BYU likes to throw to them early and often.
Darius Hill of Ball State (right, Icon SMI) produces like few tight ends in the last decade with two straight double-digit TD seasons and has averaged 800 yards in each - he is primed for a huge senior season with all 11 starters returning.
Of the Top Ten, only Oklahoma State’s Brandon Pettigrew and Southern Mississippi’s Shawn Nelson are traditional NFL-type TE capable of blocking and receiving contributions - until there are fantasy points for pancake blocks we don’t much care about that until NFL Draft time.
Our Top 21 fantasy college football TE for 2008 (stay tuned for a WR/TE combined list since many of you simply combine them for your leagues.)
