SmartassBoiler 0 Posted November 14, 2006 So, what are you Tony G owners doing about a replacement for the next 1-3 weeks? I'm in a 10x15 league, so I don't carry a 2nd TE. The waiver wire pickings are decent, but nothing very good. I'm thinking David Martin, but he has a horrible matchup against NE this week who's #3 against fantasy TEs. What sleepers are you guys eyeing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
josh wiley 27 Posted November 14, 2006 slim pickins in my league. im going with bo scaife this week and we'll see how that pans out. i think that in the titans offense with vince young, he may be more comfortable checking down to his tight end. by the way did you see that pitch back to scaife last week that he ran in for a td. tight end with a rushing td-u don't see that often.

The kid has mad skilz but was always behing Gonzo. 2 preseasons ago he was unstoppable then got hurt. He's healthy now and will be used alot by Huard and/or Trent. Grab him while you can as I am sure he is under a lot of people's radar... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I considered him also, but it sounds like they're going to use a rotation of both Wilson and Dunn at TE. I'm not sure what that will do to Wilson's value.

Black Ice 0 Posted November 14, 2006 I considered him also, but it sounds like they're going to use a rotation of both Wilson and Dunn at TE. I'm not sure what that will do to Wilson's value. Dunn is more of a blocker; he's a monster. He could vulture a TD catch from the 2, but he is hardly a downfield receiving option. Wilson is the guy if you're looking for anyone here in KC. As someone mentioned, Wilson did have a good preseason his rookie year, and looked very impressive, but then broke his leg...and seemed to find his way into the Vermeil/Saunders doghouse. I'm not sure if he'll do much but Wilson has regained some buzz with this play this year. I plan on adding him...it's not like Watson has been tearing it up for me.

brettfavreisbetterthanmarino 0 Posted November 14, 2006 I am hoping to get O. Daniels off the waiver wire. Seems to at least get looks every single week. Seeing that NE is tough against the TE position would make that a bad option. If I don't get Daniels I will cuff Wilson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmartassBoiler 0 Posted November 15, 2006 What do people think of Heath Miller? I really expected him to break through, but obviously Ben's step back this season has helped prevent that. Regardless, even with Ben starting to come around, it just doesn't seem like they're planning on making him a focal point of the offense along with Parker/Ward.

lagarzlebrew 0 Posted November 15, 2006 I have gonzo in a 12 team TE PPR league. I am 8-2 and am thinking about riding it out, but i am looking at trading one of my backup players (Bruce, Droughns, Edwards, or Rhodes) for a decent TE, but am getting no takers. One guy in my league has Desmond Clark and Winslow, and wanted Thomas Jones for Clark straight up, so it looks like I will be combing the waiver wire for the next couple of weeks.....

Seeing that NE is tough against the TE position would make that a bad option. If I don't get Daniels I will cuff Wilson I'm pretty surprised Daniels is still available in a league of any size. I think Wilson is a solid choice. That's who I'm going to drop George Wrighster and pick up....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's who I'm going to drop George Wrighster and pick up....... Yeah, he's not available in any of the 3 leagues I'm in. That 99 yard/2 TD performance made sure of that. I'll probably go for Wilson. The other 3 TEs I considered (Miller, Scaife, Martin) all face top 6 defenses against TEs this week. Wilson faces the #10, but I guess that's better than the others.

Flybear 0 Posted November 15, 2006 I was very lucky in that people in my league forgot about Kellen Winslow on draft day and I was able to get him late in the draft after taking Gonzo earlier. Ordinarily, I don't draft two TEs but the arrangement has worked out well this season. In another league where I have Gonzo, I'm leaing toward taking Bo Scaife off waivers.

16 and 33 0 Posted November 15, 2006 I'm not going to pimp Vince Young, but he does have a thing going on with his old Texas teammate. Bo Scaife is my #3 TE on my dynasty team (behind Gates and Daniels) and he gets looks every week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brettfavreisbetterthanmarino 0 Posted November 15, 2006 O. Daniels (UW fan by the way, hell ya)..has been to inconsistent to pick up as a back-up. That's just the way it has shaked out in my league. but I hope to get him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GobbleDog 816 Posted November 16, 2006 I'm beginning to wonder if Gonzo will end up playing this week. A day after the injury, the report was: injured shoulder - out 2 to 3 weeks. A day later after they did tests, injured shoulder turned into sprained shoulder. And instead of being listed as "out" for Week 11, he's currently listed as "doubtful". I know he didn't practice yesterday, but now I'm anxious to hear if he practices today or tomorrow. Even if he doesn't play this week, at least the injury doesn't seem as serious as it once did.

IN$TANT REPAY 8 Posted November 16, 2006 do the chiefs still have chris horn or dunn or whatever that other TE's name was? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 816 Posted November 17, 2006 Any updates on Gonzo? It's kinda odd to see a player who was reportedly out for 2-3 weeks listed as doubtful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC 9 Posted November 17, 2006 Scaife was the best thing on our waiver wire. Young to Scaife! Why not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigfans13 0 Posted November 17, 2006 Whew - luckily for me I have Winslow Jr. as my other TE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
