Martellus Bennett, Giants –
Historically the Giants' tight end has been a fringe fantasy contributor; Bennett is taking that a step further, essentially filling the third receiver role that was so productive for Mario Manningham last year.
Heath Miller, Steelers –
Supposedly Ben Roethlisberger said prior to the season that he intended to make Miller a Pro Bowler. He's doing a very good job of backing it up.
Jared Cook, Titans –
While Tennessee's wide receivers take turns attempting to replace Chris Johnson's offense, Cook continues to be the Titans' most consistent pass catcher.
Jason Witten, Cowboys –
The spleen bone's connected to the hand bone; that's the only explanation for Witten's sudden-onset case of the dropsies. Couple that with a solid crop of receiving tight ends and he's no longer an automatic.
