The TE position was going to evolve into the dynamic scoring position. Last year I remember debates about if you could win, if you drafted Jimmy Graham and Rob Gronkowski with your first two picks. The answer last year was NO and remains true today. You can get some good production out of the position if you take one of the top 3 TEs, but after that don’t pass on a good WR or RB to take this position.
Let’s recap number of players by position drafted in round three.
1) RB-7
2) WR-8
3) QB-2
4) TE-3
It is time to start drafting round 4. Remember this is reverse order team 20-team 1.

Round 4 is now complete and 80 players are off the draft board. Now is the time in your draft where your research pays off. This is where you start looking for those sleepers and players that people don’t see their upside.
Tomorrow I will post round 5
