Fantasy Football Tight End Rankings

Tight End has become a much more valuable position in recent years, with young stars like Antonio Gates and Jeremy Shockey turning the position into an offensive weapon. This years class looks to be deeper than ever, with Gates leading the field again.

Check out Yahoo's composite top 10 from their in-house experts.

  1. Antonio Gates
  2. Jeremy Shockey
  3. Tony Gonzalez
  4. Todd Heap
  5. Alge Crumpler
  6. Chris Cooley
  7. Jason Witten
  8. Heath Miller
  9. Randy McMichael
  10. L.J. Smith
Looking for a late round sleeper. Try Zach Hilton of the Saints, who will now be teamed up with Drew Brees. If Brees looks for Hilton as much as he looked for Gates, they could put up great numbers. Also, note that Kellen Winslow is finally returning from his devastating motorcycle accident.

Fantasy Football - Quarterback Rankings

Is there any question this year who the #1 fantasy quarterback is. With Carson Palmer still mending from the knee injury, and Tom Brady losing receivers, Peyton Manning is the clear cut #1 quarterback choice this year.

Here are the Yahoo experts top 10 fantasy football wide receivers:

  1. Peyton Manning
  2. Tom Brady
  3. Matt Hasselbeck
  4. Carson Palmer
  5. Marc Bulger
  6. Eli Manning
  7. Daunte Culpepper
  8. Jake Delhomme
  9. Trent Green
  10. Kurt Warner
If you looking for a sleeper this year, look no further than Kurt Warner. The guy put up great numbers near the end of last year, and he has the best WR combo in the NFL. However, make sure you draft a good backup because his health is always suspect.

I dare thee to disagree.

Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings - WR Rankings

Yesterday we looked at Yahoo's Fantasy Football Running Back rankings. Today, we'll check out the top Fantasy Wide Receivers.

Once again, these rankings are based on a composite of Yahoo's in-house experts. Steve Smith is the consensus number one choice this year base upon last season's monster performance. But after that, the controversy begins.

Terrell Owens is this year's big wild card. Will he light it up in Dallas, or is he too much of a risk?

My personal opinion: I'd take him in a heartbeat. The guy is a touchdown machine.

The rest of the rankings are as follows:

  1. Steve Smith
  2. Terrell Owens
  3. Chad Johnson
  4. Torry Holt
  5. Marvin Harrison
  6. Anquan Boldin
  7. Larry Fitzgerald
  8. Chris Chambers
  9. Randy Moss
  10. Darrell Jackson

Let me hear what you think.
