1. Antonio Gates, San Diego: He gets the slight edge over the Chiefs' Tony Gonzalez because he's in his prime.
2. Tony Gonzalez, Kansas City: The most-prolific pass-catching tight end in the league can still scare teams down the middle of the field.
3. Jeremy Shockey, N.Y. Giants: Love him or hate him -- and that's the way it is with him -- he's a good player. He loves to play the game, too.
4. Kellen Winslow, Cleveland: After missing 2005 from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident, he bounced back with an 89-catch season. If he stays on the field, he can be even better.
5. Alge Crumpler, Atlanta -- He's the best blocker of the elite group. He doesn't have blazing speed, but he knows how to get open.
Next best: Ben Watson, New England -- This former first-round pick should have more success now that the receivers are talented. He is a problem for linebackers in the middle of the field.
