Notes:

  • These ranks assume Tyler Eifert will miss Week 13. If he plays, he can be no worse than TE4. And, yes, I ranked ASJ, you know, for the kids.

  • Be careful with Gary Barnidge. He has a nice general role in the offense, but Austin Davis is an unknown quantity here. I was pessimistic for the week in PPR, but he is TE8 for me in standard scoring. There is nothing to dislike about a his game, but I cannot feel good about Davis throwing for 150 yards and a TD, let alone Barnidge getting 80 and/or scoring one.

  • The top-13 are all good flex plays. After that, the top-24 are all fairly interchangible and I ranked them as I would make a start-sit decision. Feel free to ask any questions in the comments or on Twitter @AlexSontySBN.
