Who is the best young TE?

A key component of a good football team/fantasy team is a solid TE. Keller? Celek? Carlson? Thoughts??

Right now...if I had to pick best young Tes to look at, I would rate them:

1) Celek - on an offensive juggernaut...and he is a key red zone target that is solid.
2) Carlson - only reason he is #2 is due to the o-line and offense isseus. Put him on Philly or some other high powered offense..and he would be #1.
3) Winslow - he has mileage..but is still pretty young....and the young Qb targets him. If Freeman develops...this could be huge for Winslow
4) Pettigrew - as Stafford develops, and Detroit improves..he will be a key cog for this offense.
5) Cook - I don't see Tenn. spending more on Tes they have, and Young and offense loves to throw to the TE.
 
I think Phic is exactly right on his list and reasons. Someone else to consider right at 5-6 IMO is Heath Miller. Only been in the league, what, 4 years?
 
I suspect Celek and Carlson are about at the top of their game and not to knock that level I see Petti moving to or near the top of the list as the line develops to the point where they can utilize him as a receiver more than they have.

A nice sleeper candidate could be Shawn Nelson in Buffalo if he can stay healthy
 
Olsen has got to be in this mix, with a wait and see on Finley in green bay. Injury and a Qb running for his life has halted what I felt was gonna be an impact season.
