Broncos pick up TEs Daniel Fells, Dante Rosario

Not since 35-year-old Shannon Sharpe in 2003 have the Denver Broncos had a tight end who caught at least 50 passes in a single season. Jeb Putzier was good for a hot minute. Tony Scheffler had some decent seasons, but still no one at that position has crossed the 50-reception threshold in Denver since the Hall of Famer. In an effort to change that, the team signed a pair of tight ends Sunday, Dante Rosario and Daniel Fells. Both were inked to one-year deals and will battle Dan Gronkowski and a couple of rookies for playing time. Rosario, a former Panther, caught 32 passes for 264 yards in 2010. Fells, a former Ram, caught 41 passes for 391 yards in 2010. But according to the Denver Post, Rosario will play more of a pass-catching role while Fells will see more time as a blocker.

Fantasy Analysis:

A couple of minimal weapons for Kyle Orton or Tim Tebow @TimTebow or whoever starts at quarterback for the Broncos. They have no fantasy value right now, but maybe someone will break through during the 2011 season.
