#5 Jason Witten - (#7 on ESPN Rankings)
For whatever reason, Jason Witten has been much better at home than on the road. All three of his highest yardage totals came at home, as well as all three of his touchdowns. Its a good matchup against the Vikings, its at home, and he is coming off a down game. I like his chances.

#10 Garrett Graham - (#13 on ESPN Rankings)
Graham has been a major disappointment since taking over the TE1 role in Houston. Others may be out, but not me. Graham received 8 targets from Case Keenum against the Chiefs, who happen to be by far the most shutdown team against tight ends. Those 8 targets were the most of any player on Houston - more than Andre or DeAndre. Against any team that isn't the Chiefs, I expect a lot more success. Also factor in how the bye has surely helped Case Keenum get familiar with his targets.

#13 Kyle Rudolph - (#10 on ESPN Rankings)
I will never understand any love for Kyle Rudolph. He is wildly inconsistent. Even in a good matchup, I don't trust him. He has a bad QB situation and he has only scored more than 5 points once in the past 5 games. Look elsewhere.
