How to play the tight end position outside the very elite profiles.

That's what we're talking about today on stealing bananas.

I'm Ben Gretsch.

You can find my stealing signals newsletter at

Ben Gretsch.substack.com starting to ramp up the production over there. Just wrote a very long

piece on the Miami Dolphins. With me as always is Sean Siegel. You can find off his great work

over at Rodeviz. He just wrote a great piece. Breaking down the MFL 10 of death has sent out

rankings pieces on FFPC's Big Gorilla.

You can get a ton of player takes from Sean over at Rodeviz.

a lot or probably will in the future talk a lot about Brock Bowers and Trey McBride and George

going to work into some like later around tight ends. I don't want to start with Sam Lepora

It felt like there were a lot last year.
