Latest News
Gates has career year in 2009: Chargers TE Antonio Gates said in an interview with CBSSports.com that he was proud of his season in 2009. Gates had 79 catches for a career-high 1,157 yards and eight touchdowns. He was glad he was able to bounce back from toe and hip injuries over the past two years and play at a high enough level to make his sixth Pro Bowl. Gates said he still considers himself the best TE in the NFL. "It's a situation that once you set a standard you have to constantly keep going and constantly do things where you can challenge yourself," he said. "Every year is a challenge. It's a challenge I have. You always set goals for yourself. I'm never complacent. I'm always striving to become better. That's just my motive."

Fantasy Analysis
Chargers coach Norv Turner agreed that Gates still is an elite TE and deserving of his Pro Bowl berth. "It was big for Antonio because he was the healthiest he's been since he hurt his toe in the playoffs two years ago," Turner said. "The combination of his experience, his explosiveness, his health and just the consistency he gave us is incredible. He had his best year yards per catch, he had his best year in total yards. We played in a lot of close games, so those aren't phony stats. Those are stats that help you win. There are guys who have great stats in the fourth quarter or when they're way ahead or way behind. Antonio's stats are real in terms of when the game's on the line he was awfully productive." Gates is a No. 1 Fantasy TE in all leagues heading into 2010, and he's worth drafting around Round 4 or 5 since he should continue to post great stats again next year.
