Best TE in the NFL

Forgot about Finley & Gates. They both top your boy too. And don't look now, but if Martellus he's it up he'll pass him up too in his new role in NY.

Def liking what I've seen from Bennet. Not really deserving of consideration thus far, but he's looked good.

You guys are just Cowboys haters. I didn't vote for Witten, but he was 3rd in the NFL for TEs in receiving last year and he has been one of the top TEs in the league for years now. He has been banged up this year but that doesn't mean he isn't still top 5 when healthy. People talk about all around TEs and that is what Witten is. The hate is more Cowboys hate then anything. But anyone that doesn't have bias would acknowledge that Witten has been an elite TE for years. Now he might have been passed up by a couple, but having him on the list is not being a homer, he deserves it.
As a side note, Witten had almost the same amount of yards as Jackson last season, you know the guy Josh thinks is the best WR in the NFL...about the same as Percy too....Ludo.

It's not my fault Romo is his bf and wants to help him out. Jackson had a bad year last year.

I'm just saying if you look at Witten the last 5 seasons he has been an elite TE. He doesn't just get numbers, he does everything you want a TE to do. That dude is a football player, tough as nails.

The only reason he receives hate.

Hard to pick anyone over Graham. No TE is making more difficult catches today, I see him producing when targeted most consistently on a team that typically has many options to distribute the ball to, he is statistically among the top pass blockers for TE's the past several year, and the only TE more effective as a deep threat today has been Arron Hernandez. Just watching the play it self is most telling. He plays TE better than all others today. Witten, Davis and Gonzales are not in the conversation imo, though Gonzales is the GOAT.

What makes Graham so scary is didn't he only play 1 year of college football after playing basketball? I don't think he has peaked yet.

It explains his ability and coordination to make plays on the football field above the rim.

Also explains how quickly he has improved since being drafted.

witten just went third all time in receptions for tight ends and he'll go third all time in yards this week.

unless you're new orleans or new england, you'd pay over the market rate to have that guy on your team.

I thought this thread was about who was the best right now, not who had the most skins on the wall.

So since Smith is benched, I took the liberty of taking his thrown touchdowns through the 9 games he played and did some simple math to find his projected total. At 13 touchdowns through 9 games he would have been projected to throw 23 total touchdowns this regular season.

So since that's the case I give you this, Kings, for a week. Enjoy:

Since the thread was bumped anyways. How about Jason fucking Witten? Still the fucking man.

Bump for Kings since it seems he missed it.

The Cowgirls had a nice TE rotting on their bench behind Witten.

Marty B with a TD on NMF. He's got over 500 yards and 4 TDs. Easily his best year of his career by far.

tony gonzalez might want to rethink his retirement date.

he's been rolling back the years this year.

That dude was a headcase. They tried to say that he was maturing but he didn't show any signs of that in Dallas. He had an attitude problem and inconsistent on the field. He isn't now and never will be half the TE Witten is. Hell he was 3rd string for awhile in Dallas, he had a ton of potential, but he didn't produce for shit.
Dude can't swing off Witten's nuts.

Didn't produce because he didn't get enough oppertunity. That and Romo a d Witten are butt buddies.

Don't pretend that's even close to the truth. He got plenty of chances to get on the field. He had a TON of off the field problems. If it wasn't for his huge potential he wouldn't have been worth a roster spot. He had major, major attitude problems and he will even admit that. He supposedly "grew up" after getting married. But that was at the end of this Cowboys run and he didn't do a lot to show it. He might be better now, he was awfully young when he joined the Cowboys. But he was a major head case and that had everything to do with him not reaching his potential in Dallas.

Name one off the field problem. Zero arrests or drug/alcohol issues.

I should have said attitude problems. Bit you are in denial or out of touch with the facts. Everyone knew he had a ton of potential but everyone knew he didn't play cause his attitude and work ethic.

Dude is a bit misunderstood. Very out there kind of like Foster, but the guy always gave 100%. He wasn't the favored TE. He is in NY and he's doing just fine.

So are you going back on your word here, Kings?

Come on now, that's just denial or ignorance. You can't really be that niave about Bennett. I guess you could be that big of a homer though. He had problem with the playbook, it was more of a lack of interest and effort rather then ability to learn it.

Bennett may still need to mature off of the field before he can flourish on it. He isn’t a bad kid by any means, but he sometimes does boneheaded things.
