Is it really that far of a stretch? I mean if we are talking statistics alone then having Peyton Manning as QB who loves his TE's makes sense to have him on the list. A great example is that of 2010 when Dallas Clark coming off a great year the season before with over a thousand yards receiving gets hurt half way through the season. In steps Jacob Tamme who the most before that season had 35 yards receiving. He steps in during week 8 of the season for the Colts and goes on to put up 630 yards receiving. You have that average out over the whole season and the guy is in the top-5 TE's in the NFL yet before that season would anybody have predicted Jacob Tamme would put up some of the best TE stats of any TE in the NFL? Probably not. Some of this has to be what the QB can do for the TE as yes there are plenty of guys I would put ahead of Daniels if they all had the same level of QB. For me I love Charles Clay and in the right system he would be great but he is now with the Bills who have maybe the worst QB situation in the league.
Daniels was aching and always "half-injured" last year. Always a question if he was playing and when he did he was ok but slow. Real slow.
I just don't see many LBs in the AFCW having a problem covering him...certainly not too 5 IMO we shall see.
