Isaac Bruce is the proven veteran, Torry Holt is the physical specimen, and Derrick Alexander is not far behind. Bruce, Holt, and Alexander are all three Top-10 fantasy receivers, combining last season for 247 catches for 4,497 yards and 25 touchdowns. Bruce and Holt play in the most fantasy friendly offense in the league, and it looks as if Vermeil is planning to continue that pattern in Kansas City. Sylvester Morris showed plenty of potential as a rookie, including the ability to get deep and to go up and grab jump balls from defenders. Morris caught 48 balls for 678 yards and three TD s last year, which seems unimpressive.
Tight End is usually the death valley of all fantasy rosters.
But Kansas City s Tony Gonzalez has done for the position what Lawrence Taylor did to linebacker. Gonzalez would be a Top 10 wide receiver, and is far and away the number one fantasy tight end. Gonzalez pulled in 93 catches for 1,203 yards and 9 TD s last season. Gonzalez clearly performs as well as these top receivers, and his value increases that much more because he s a tight end. Ernie Conwell elicits very little excitement, but only a handful of tight ends are worth anything anyway.
