2011 Outlook
Depth Chart
Last year I told you that Shiancoe’s overreliance on touchdowns made him an inconsistent contributor at tight end and increased his risk factor. Sure enough, he caught just two touchdowns in 2010 after grabbing 11 in 2009 and eight in 2008. He dropped to 24th among tight ends, and with rookie second-round pick Kyle Rudolph on board, the odds of Shiancoe returning to his status as a fantasy starter are not great. The addition of McNabb does help his case a bit, however. Move him up to TE2 status if he relegates Rudolph to a clear backup status. Otherwise, you can do better.

Comment: Shiancoe has been battling a hamstring injury since August 8th and is expected to sit out the 2nd preseason game.

FF Today's Take: Shiancoe`s hand was visibly swollen on Thursday but he vows that he will play this week. Friday`s practice will go a long way in determining his status for this week against the Lions.

Hamstring tweak slows Vikings WR
Visanthe Shiancoe tweaked a hammy today, was limited in practice. (Tom Pelissero on Twitter)

FF Today's Take: This news came out of nowhere but it shouldn't be enough to keep him out of action. Expect Shiancoe to start Sunday but temper expectations just a bit.
