Sorry about going off on a tangent but there is something that occurred to me about the TEs. Both years we've drafted TEs because they were purportedly the BPA and great value. Don't recall about last year but at least this year, I also noticed on Saturday that ESPN's BPA tracker that they were running (probably Kiper's rankings) was dominated by TEs. It seemed like when the 4th round started, something like 4 of the top 6 BPAs (at least according to Kiper) were TEs. So, that got me thinking. Since most teams only carry 2-3 TEs and it is generally seen as a lesser position, maybe teams routinely pass over TEs carrying 2nd and 3rd round grades. Maybe finding all these great value TEs in the 4th and 5th rounds isn't that unusual and these guys drop to there every year. If TEs do usually drop because it's just not a premium position, we have to recognize that or we're going to end up drafting TEs every year.
