Dipping Dynasty Value

This time of year, fantasy owners are usually doing one of a few things – either preparing for a playoff run, moping around and fussing because their team “barely” missed the playoffs, or – in the case of dynasty owners – scouting which players will potentially breakout down the road, and evaluating those that may be on the downturn of their statistical careers.

Week 8 - Who’s In, Who’s Out

Heading into Week 8, there are already some names that fantasy owners know they can’t count on. Cleveland Browns TE Kellen Winslow is out due to a team-enforced suspension, and so is Kansas City Chiefs Larry Johnson - who misses his second straight week. Read more

Fantasy Football Week 1 - TE Questions

As fantasy owners get ready for Week 1, there are several question marks surrounding the tight end position. Antonio Gates hasn’t played since last January, and owners are wondering if Jason Witten can repeat his 2007 season. And, who will boom and bust? Read more

Winslow Says He Can’t Be Stopped…

When recent asked about his knee surgeries over the past few seasons, Browns tight end Kellen Winslow said that regardless of the amount of surgeries he’s had, that “no one will stop him from reaching his dream.”

Well, good for you Winslow, way to he-man yourself in the face of injury.

We believe him, and recommend fantasy owners take a good long look at him in the fourth round of seasonal drafts. This places his dynasty value at virtually untradeable at this time.

Experts Draft: Witten Is First TE Taken

Yesterday, we left you with Roddy White being selected towards the end of round three of the most recent experts draft, a shocking surprise to us here at No-Offseason.com. Today, we analyze round four and one thing that really caught our eye - Dallas’ Jason Witten being the top tight end taken. Check out the rest of round four and what we think of Witten being snagged prior to Antonio Gates and Kellen Winslow. Read more

Kellen Winslow To Sign New Deal Soon…

All indications are that Browns TE Kellen Winslow will get a new deal done with the Cleveland Browns very soon. Winslow has been looking for a lucrative contract extension all off-season.

Rotoworld reports that Winslow’s agent Drew Rosenhaus has been in contact with the Browns recently about a new deal.

See where Winslow ranks in our top TEs for 2008.

Kellen Winslow Looks Great In Practice…

We’ve been extremely confident in the health of Browns TE Kellen Winslow for quite some time now and we have not waivered on our stance. He is our second overall tight end in most formats, and will improve upon his numbers yet again in 2008.

Winslow returned to Browns practice yesterday, but took part in several drills today, and reportedly caught a 40 yard TD pass from Brady Quinn. Consider Winslow a full go in all formats, and he’s worthy of a late fourth to early fifth round pick in PPR leagues.

Kellen Winslow To Report Today…

Word is that Browns TE Kellen Winslow will report to Browns mandatory mini-camp today. Winslow has been recovery from an off-season procedure to clean up some things in his knees. We have no worries about Winslow’s status heading into 2008. We believe he’ll be totally healthy, and the fact that he plays in one of the NFL’s most up and coming, explosive offenses, makes him a top two TE in all formats.

Antonio Gates Still Not Running…

Is anyone else as concerned about the health of Antonio Gates as we are? He hasn’t even begun running since having toe surgery in February, despite shedding his walking boot almost a full month ago.

This has lingering issue written all over it, and we’re cautioning owners against taking him too high in seasonal formats. Jason Witten and Kellen Winslow are better options at this point, and Gates is expected to miss most of August. Reports that “he’ll be ready by Week 1″ don’t ease our minds about him.

Several Veterans Won’t Skip Mini-Camp…

We’re hearing that guys like Chicago’s Brian Urlacher, New Orleans’ Marques Colston and Cincy’s T.J. Houshmandzadeh, and even Miami’s Jason Taylor and Arizona’s Anquan Boldin and Edgerrin James will not skip upcoming mandatory mini-camps in June.

This is a tell-tale sign that this “voluntary” off-season stuff doesn’t hold much weight with some guys.

It’ll be interesting to see if Cleveland’s Kellen Winslow shows up in Cleveland as well. We believe he will.

Wake Up Folks, Winslow Is Fine

If Drew Rosenhaus says something on YouTube, it’s true, right? I’m so sure. But some of the time, what he says makes complete sense…and this, my friends, is one of those times. Rosenhaus represents Browns TE Kellen Winslow, about whom the rumors are swirling this off-season. Read more

Rosenhaus: Winslow Won’t Miss Mandatory Training Camp…

In a recent YouTube clip, agent Drew Rosenhaus reported that it’s no big deal that Kellen Winslow is missing voluntary workouts. Rosenhaus says Winslow is training on his own, and he won’t miss mandatory mini-camp or training camp.

We’ve moved Winslow up to our second ranked TE in our 2008 seasonal rankings.
