Premiere Tight End: Antonio Gates, San Diego Chargers
Any offense that features LaDanian Tomlinson on ground is going to open up passing lanes and until Chris Chambers came onboard, Antonio Gates was the focal point of the passing game. Gates consistently gets looks in the red zone and on third down. When healthy he is a touchdown and yardage machine. The presence of Chris Chambers only enhances the abilities of a healthy Antonio Gates. San Diego is primed for an extended playoff run and Antonio Gates will be a key beneficiary of their success.

Most Overrated Tight End: Tony Gonzalez, Kansas City Chiefs
Years of being the main focal point of a run-first offense have resulted in some gaudy numbers for Tony Gonzalez, but at 32 years of age, the nine time pro bowler entering his 12th NFL season is sure to slow down. With the emergence of Dwayne Bowe at the wide receiver position and the inconsistent play at the quarterback position in Kansas City, Gonzalez will have a tough time matching his 1172 yards and 5 touchdowns from 2007.

2008 Fantasy Sleeper: Greg Olsen, Chicago Bears
The passing game in Chicago is more than suspect after the loss of Bernard Berrian to Minnesota and the massive question mark hanging over the quarterback position. The loss of Cedric Benson and subsequent promotion of rookie Matt Forte to the starting lineup adds to the uncertainty of the Chicago running game, but the main benefactor of this offense in disarray will be Greg Olsen. Olsen will demonstrate why he was selected by the Chicago bears in the first round of the 2007 NFL draft. 2008 will be his break out year as the Bears will be forced to play from behind in most contests as opponents dare the quarterback of the week to beat them through the air. Olsen will be a reliable consistent target and perhaps the only bright spot for Chicago Bears fans on offense.

Sure to Disappoint: Anthony Fasano, Dallas Cowboys
This former first round pick of the Dallas Cowboys was a bust in Dallas and received his walking papers. Picked up by the anemic Miami Dolphins offense, I can't seem him making any kind of fantasy football impact.

The Next Great Fantasy TE: John Carlson, Seattle Seahawks
This rookie tight end landed in a fantastic spot to make use of his rare combination of speed and pass catching ability. With the rash of injuries and inconsistency at the wide receiver position, Matt Hasselbeck had to be licking his chops when the Seahawks drafted Carlson. It may take a couple years, but John Carlson will be an elite tight end in the NFL.
