Statistically speaking, and in terms of catches and yards, Jason Witten is one of the best TEs of all time. I think he's actually on pace to break Tony G's records. Of course, it remains to be seen whether or not he can match Gonzalez's longevity.
Outside of statistics, Witten is one of the most reliable TEs in the game and has been for quite some time. He's not quite as flashy as a Jimmy Graham or Vernon Davis but the only guy better at catching with his hands in traffic is Tony G. Plus he's never injured. |

TO, Dez Bryant, Miles Austin at WR. Jason Witten has been a rock at TE. At one point Marion Barber was considered good and Demarco Murray flashes. Their offensive line is usually above average to pretty good. On the other side, the defense has been ranked near the top a decent number of times. If I remember correctly, they had the number 1 offense and defense one season not too long ago. Plus they had 12 pro bowlers at one point maybe back around 06. The Boys have always had talent. Their problem is deeper than that. |

i think it was '07 where they were near #1 in both offense and defense, when they went 13-3 but lost the first playoff game the Giants (who wound up winning it all) Romo's dumb sometimes, and Witten HAS been a rock at TE...i never heard anyone refer to Marion Barber as "one of the best in the league" though, or give him praise anywhere near that level |

Wilson's got a better offensive line, I'll give him that, but his receiving options aren't exactly lightyears ahead of what Smith has. Are Golden Tate, Doug Baldwin, and Ben Obamanu really that much better than Dwayne Bowe, Donnie Avery and Dexter McCluster? Also can't forget the quality of teams he's taken down. He doesn't do it like Drew Brees yet, but the man has barely played 20 NFL regular season games in his entire career. He'll get there. |

But yeah, I think Wilson will only improve but as far as this season, I think it's a wash to date. Of course, that's subject to change. |

I think Gronkowski has the best hands of any Tight end. He catches everything. He will never have the longevity of witten and tony g though.
