Ben Utecht 2008 Fantasy Projections

by Kori Ellis on April 2nd, 2008

After spending the first three years of his NFL career with the Indianapolis Colts, Ben Utecht has signed a contract to become a member of the Cincinnati Bengals. Utecht never had a hugely productive season with the Colts, however Peyton Manning trusted him in most situations.

Although Utecht will now have to leave Manning’s side, he’s stepping into a good situation in Cincinnati. The Bengals have a high-powered offense that can really move the ball through the air. These days, the Bengals are probably going to be even more pass oriented than the Colts.

The Bengals could really use Utecht to open the field for their wide receivers. Cincinnati obviously thinks Utecht is the man for the job, as they gave him a three-year, $9M contract. Expect the 6-foot-6 Utecht to be the starting tight end for the Bengals in 2008.

If he wins the job, Utecht should have a productive season. Right now, he’s a major sleeper, especially considering I have him projected for 700 yards and five touchdowns for this upcoming season.
