Broncos | Two TEs out for preseason opener Wed Aug 7, 11:54 AM
Denver Broncos TEs Joel Dreessen (knee) and Jacob Tamme (quadriceps) are both out for the preseason opener Thursday, Aug. 8, against the San Francisco 49ers. Dreessen just had his knee scoped, and is expected to miss most of the preseason. TE Virgil Green, Jake O'Connell and recently added TE DeAngelo Peterson will see plenty of playing time.
| Footballguys view: We'll see former Portland State basketball star Julius Thomas with the first team on Thursday night. He's been a standout player every day in practice and has a nice blend of size/speed/athleticism. Thomas knows how to box out defenders and creates mismatches every time he lines up on the field. |

Steelers | Ziggy Hood may be more suited for NT Sun Jan 27, 02:00 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers DE Ziggy Hood may be better suited to play nose tackle because of his strength.
| Footballguys view: Hood and 2011 first-round pick Cameron Heyward have been massive disappointments. The Steelers used two of their last four first-round picks on the defensive line and don't appear to be stronger than when they were relying on an aging Aaron Smith and Casey Hampton. |

Chiefs | TE position could be in for overhaul Tue Jan 15, 10:15 PM
Kansas City Chiefs TE Tony Moeaki (knee) was not the same this season after coming back from knee surgery, and TE Jake O'Connell was not much of a weapon. This position might be in for an overhaul with new head coach Andy Reid and general manager John Dorsey taking over.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs need playmakers at the TE position and they don't really have that right now. Moeaki can be an impact player when healthy but he's rarely at full strength (or even on the field) because of multiple injuries. |
