Gronkowski: big-time tight ends

Posted May. 28 at 12:21 AM

Tight ends are putting up better numbers than ever before. Not just Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham, but other guys as well.

In terms of fantasy production (on a per-game basis), four of the best 17 seasons by tight ends in the last 10 years came last year.

Fantasy scoring system here is 6 points for touchdowns and 1 for every 10 yards.
