Gronkowski has been a touchdown machine through his first three seasons, recording double-digit touchdowns each year (38 total). The only thing that has held Gronkowski back is injuries, as he played in just 11 games last season due to a broken bone in his left forearm. His Week 1 status is in jeopardy, so make sure to keep an eye on his progress throughout the summer before spending a high draft pick on him.

2. Jimmy Graham (NO)

Graham failed to repeat his mind-boggling 2011 season, but he still finished with 85 catches for 982 yards and nine touchdowns last season, despite playing through a nagging wrist injury for much of the second half of the season. He also led the league in drops with 15. A healthy wrist and the return of coach Sean Payton should help Graham improve in 2013.

3. Tony Gonzalez (ATL)

Somehow Gonzalez keeps putting up top numbers at his position year in and year out. Despite being 36 years old last season, Gonzalez posted 93 catches for 930 yards and eight touchdowns. Some owners will shy away from the now 37-year-old tight end in drafts, fearing this will be the year his numbers fall off a cliff, but with Atlanta's potent passing attack in tact from last year, the odds seem in favor of Gonzalez proving doubters wrong one last year.
