Headlines

Gonzalez makes good impression: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports new Falcons TE Tony Gonzalez had a good first mini-camp. He appeared to catch everything thrown his way. On Sunday, he drove out to tip a pass that was too far in front of him. While falling to the ground, he caught the ball. Offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey had him run a couple of vertical routes and it doesn't look like the 33-year-old has lost a step. "He's everything that I've seen for the last nine or 10 years," Falcons coach Mike Smith said. "He's the prototypical tight end. He can block. He can catch. He can run after the catch. He's just a guy who's going to make everybody on this team, offense and defense, better."

Fantasy Analysis

Gonzalez should help the offense as a whole. Mularkey knows that with Gonazlez on board, teams will have trouble keying on one player. There were games last season, when teams could sellout on stopping Michael Turner or Roddy White and shut the offense down. "It will be hard to beat down on one guy with Tony in there," Mularkey said. "It should help the run game with him in there." Gonzalez is going to do just fine in Atlanta and playing with QB Matt Ryan. He remains a No. 1 Fantasy option and should be one of the first players drafted at his position beginning with a pick around Round 5 in all leagues.
