Tuna Knows His Tight Ends

Despite the fact that the Cowboys already had All-Pro tight end Jason Witten on the team, Bill Parcells decided to draft Anthony Fasano in the 2nd round of the 2006 draft anyway.  He said that Fasano really reminded him of one of his old TEs, Mark Bavaro, when he was back with the Giants in the 80's.  Of course, because the Cowboys had Witten already, Fasano didn't get to showcase his talent as much as he would have liked and ended up with marginal stats.  In 2008, with Parcells now in the Dolphins organization, Miami quickly pulled off a trade to acquire the young promising TE.

 

2009 Fantasy Outlook

He put up 454 yards and seven TDs in his third year (2008) ranked him 9th (basic format) in TE production and marked his best statistical output.  Let's start a new bullshit theory "The third year TE breakout rule".  Parcells knew what he was doing when he traded for him before last season with the Cowboys.  He is a good candidate to maintain this production given the poo at WR for the 'Fins.  Fasano owners should expect a similar numbers again in '09 as the Dolphins offense, along with Chad Pennington, like to incorporate the TE.  Fasano is in a contract year.   He's a fantasy backup.
