Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Owens, a blocking specialist, gives the Jets needed depth. Dustin Keller, who had a promising rookie season in 2008, and undrafted free agents J'Nathan Bullock and Jack Simmons are the only other tight ends on the team's roster. James Dearth, who began his career as a tight end, works exclusively as the Jets' long snapper.
