The obvious big news was Kellen Winslow being traded by the Buccaneers to the Seahawks and the Bucs signing ex-Colt Dallas Clark. However, there was more good news out of San Diego and it appears the fantasy TE class is as deep as it has been in recent years.

Studs and starters

Hidden value?
The Buccaneers sent Kellen Winslow to the Seahawks after the new regime determined he was not the kind of veteran they wanted around. With their offense not geared toward a tight end as a primary offensive weapon they believed they could afford to make the move. Winslow goes to Seattle and will play with Zach Miller but he will be the pass-receiving end. In larger leagues, Winslow has value as a No. 2 with limited upside. Age and injury have not been kind to his oft-injured knee and he is now entering his eighth season and will struggle to separate. His knee kept him from ever becoming the playmaker we thought he could be and Winslow has greater value for the Seahawks than fantasy owners. Don’t overvalue him.

Any gas left?
Once Winslow was traded to the Seahawks, fantasy owners began to look at his replacement in Tampa Bay, Dallas Clark. A quality veteran, Clark will help the transition to a new staff with leadership on the field and in the locker room. The Bucs will pattern themselves after the Giants' offense, which is not fantasy TE-friendly. The previous regime was also high on Luke Stocker, a second-year player, but how he fits in with the new coaching staff remains to be seen. He is supposedly talented so right now, look at training camp and the preseason to discover any value here. Until then, look elsewhere for tight ends.
