Fantasy instant debate Travis Kelce vs. Julius Thoma

[sharonorn]

and are unquestionably the top two fantasy tight ends in the game right now. After that, things get a little murky at the position. However, two names are sure to draw plenty of interest in most drafts -- and . Which of these two will have the better fantasy season?!Michael Fabiano NFL Media Senior AnalystKelce primed for bigger thingsThis one is a no brainer for me ... I'm going with Kelce. The fact that the released should mean more of a prominent role for Kelce, who figures to remain a popular target for . As a result, Kelce will be a one of the first five tight ends drafted in 2015. On the flip side, Thomas' value took a ma sive hit when he left and the for (yikes) and the . He could fall out of the top 10 altogether. !Alex Gelhar NFL Media Writer/EditorKelce by a mileI'm going with and I don't think it's that close. Last season, was the leading receiver for the (' new team), and he posted respectable numbers with 51 receptions, 677 receiving yards and six touchdowns. By comparison, with the Kelce notched more receptions (67), yards (862) and just one George McGinnis Jersey fewer touchdown (five). Kelce has a much better chance of replicating, if not building upon, that production again in 2015 as he's in the same system with the same coach and quarterback. Thomas will be fighting an uphill battle in Jacksonville to post anywhere close to his usual numbers. Sure, is gone and his 53 receptions are going to have to go somewhere, but what do we really know about Thomas as a player on his own? He was still learning the position in Denver, and a portion of his succe s heretofore has to be attributed directly to , who is still in Denver. Thomas is an athletic specimen who very well could prove me wrong. I just won't be spending the requisite draft pick on him this fall to find out. !Marcas Grant NFL Media EditorOrange Julius squeezed outThe dirty little secret of ' fantasy succe s over the past two seasons has been his huge touchdown dependency. The athletic tight end caught 12 scoring pa ses in both 2013 and 2014. But that's what happens when you play in a high-powered offense led by . Yet, Thomas has never had 800 receiving yards in a season. Contrast that with Kelce, who posted 862 receiving yards in his first campaign as a starter. Nothing about Kelce's situation changes from 2014 while Thomas moves to a far le s productive offense. Orange Julius' touchdowns are certain to fall, but it's hard to imagine his yardage totals rising enough to make up the difference. Paul Reed Jersey
