SUMMARY

Witten had another banner season last year, topping 1,000 yards for the second straight season. It was his third 1,000-yard season the last four years. He also had 94 receptions for the second straight season. Witten did set a career high last season, scoring nine touchdowns. His previous high for scores was just seven. Witten had three games with double-digit receptions and scored touchdowns his last five games. He had five games with 80-plus yards. Witten has some competition for targets in Dallas, but will get plenty of chances in the passing game. He is a favorite target of Tony Romo. Witten is an athletic tight end with above-average speed. He does well in traffic and has very good hands.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
You can make a strong case for Witten to be the first tight end off the board. His numbers don't lie. He is good for 90-plus receptions for 1,000 yards. His reception and yardage totals will be among or the best of any tight end. The only thing that doesn't make Witten the sure No. 1 overall tight end are his lack of scores. He has yet to score double-digit touchdowns for his career and averages five per season for his career.
