| Turner says Gates looks 'great': Antonio Gates said he was "excited" to get back to work and not have to deal with foot injuries a month ago. On Wednesday, his head coach was excited to have him on the field. Chargers coach Norv Turner told the San Diego Union-Tribune that his star tight end is participating without incident in the team's minicamp and looks great. "He's back," Turner said. "Physically, he's back to where we want him to be. I think, like anybody, going through this offseason program helps you get better. (It's) the combination of conditioning, the combination of getting better in the areas you can improve, and being out there with your teammates." (Updated 05/18/2012) |

| Fantasy Analysis |
| Gates hasn't worked out in the Chargers' offseason program in two years because of a multitude of foot injuries. But he's fine now and should be a lock to start the regular season in the Chargers' lineup. With all the excitement over tight ends in New England and New Orleans, Gates shapes up to be a decent value on Draft Day this summer. He's worth a pick in Round 4 but owners might even find him available in Round 5. Not bad for a tight end who in his last 39 games has averaged nearly 70 yards per start with 25 touchdowns. With Vincent Jackson off to Tampa Bay, there might even be a bump up in his numbers in San Diego this fall. (Updated 05/18/2012). |
