Strength of schedule is calculated from the opponents projected fantasy points allowed for the TE position. The best rating is +16 which gives the player the advantage against the defense and indicates an easy opponent, the worst rating is -16 which gives the defense the advantage and indicates a tough opponent.
Gonzalez has got to be excited to play in Atlanta with Matt Ryan, along with Michael Turner and Roddy White. They'll help each other and Gonzalez definitely remains a top 5 TE.
The tone of Roddy White's negotiations with the Falcons has taken a turn for the worse. "I'm a little bit disappointed with the direction that the negotiations are going at this point," Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff said ...
There have not been any takers since the Falcons announced in February that they planned to trade Michael Vick's contractual rights. If the Falcons can't find any takers, they would very likely release him outright, if he is reinstated. Vick would ...

Draft Analysis
Round 4, Pick 11
Positives Consistently excellent production from a position generally lacking in it. Has averaged an impressive 80 receptions a season over the past 9 seasons, and has missed only 2 starts in that span. Negatives The Chiefs suck. Their new QB sucks. Their coach is very fantasy unfriendly. Their line, which used to be the toast of the league, is in complete rebuilding mode. Also, Tony G is getting to be quite old. Draft Strategy This is a reach based on most ADP lists, but it's a league system call. With 3/pTD and only 2 WRs starting, there's a lot of value in having an elite TE. I see Gonzo as the last one available, and I'm willing to pay a premium to get that value. (Contributed by: Agenda42)
Round 4, Pick 11
Positives A consistent high end tight end. Negatives He's getting a little old. He has a new QB Draft Strategy I would rather have had Witten or Gates, but Gonzales isn't a bad consolation prize. I still need to get a WR, but I'll be able to pick one up in the 5.02 pick and top Tight Ends are scarce.

Round 4, Pick 12
Positives Consistent top TE on a team with few other threats, that everyone seems to have forgotten about. Negatives He's not Jason Witten. Draft Strategy The top TEs offer much better peer value than most other positions at this point in your draft. Take one. (Contributed by: CleffedUp)
