Dynasty and keeper leagues require a slightly different mindset than standard leagues. You’re playing for keeps, long term. That said, it’s important to consider how many players you actually get to keep each year when assessing a player's value when it comes time to make a cut, or when draft day rolls around.
The Tight End is tough position to make an argument for keeping, even in a dynasty league. Each season only the top three or four players at the position score well enough to warrant consideration, and then only at the equivalent of a low end number one or high end number two WR.

| RANK | PLAYER | TEAM | AGE | ONE LINER |

| 3 | Antonio Gates | SDG | 29 | You could put him at one or two as well. |
| 4 | Vernon Davis | SFO | 26 | Solid chemistry with Alex Smith helps |
| 5 | Jermichael Finley | GBP | 22 | Freakish skills but will be overhyped this year |
| 6 | Brent Celek | PHI | 25 | Could be top 5 this season, McNabb loves him |

| 8 | Kellen Winslow | TBB | 26 | 4th in targets in '09 with QB carousel |
| 9 | Owen Daniels | HOU | 27 | IF healthy he goes here, monitor his rehab |

| 20 | Todd Heap | BAL | 29 | A decent #2 TE option with Flacco at QB |
