TE Duds

Jason Witten-Dallas Cowboys: Witten was in a great matchup against the Seahawks who had struggled with opposing tight ends, but he failed to deliver catching just two passes for 16 yards.  Matt Cassel is killing the Cowboys’ fantasy values and he sunk Witten this week.

Larry Donnell-New York Giants: Donnell caught just one pass for 22 yards before leaving the Giants game against the Saints.  It was such a shootout that his owners can only imagine what he could have done if he stayed on the field for the entirety of this one.

Eric Ebron-Detroit Lions: All of the Detroit options were a letdown in fantasy football week 8 including Ebron who caught just three passes for 24 yards.

Ladarius Green-San Diego Chargers: Green only managed one catch for ten yards before leaving the game with an injury.  He had been fairly reliable even with Antonio Gates in the game, but injury derailed Green and his owners this week in a good matchup against the Ravens.
