Colts pleased with rookie Tamme: Jacob Tamme has always been a quick study. He graduated from the University of Kentucky in three years, made a seamless transition from high school receiver to college tight end and wound up No. 2 among SEC tight ends in career receptions. Now Tamme is showing the Indianapolis Colts how adept he is on his feet. "He's done a lot of the things we saw him doing in college, he's doing the things we've seen him do in practice and he's done it all well," coach Tony Dungy said. The Colts figured Tamme would fit into their system. They liked his speed, his route-running skills and his hands. They also liked the fact Tamme played in a similarly wide-open offense at Kentucky, and that he spent the past couple of years modeling his game after another Colts tight end, Dallas Clark.

Fantasy Analysis
While some rookies are slow to pick up the nuances of new teammates and new systems, Tamme has shown no sign of struggling. He's played well enough, in fact, to keep himself in contention for a starting job in the Colts' offense. Unlike most teams, the Colts' standard offense uses a one-back formation with two tight ends. One of those spots, barring injury, will go to Clark. The fight for the other spot, vacated when Ben Utecht left for Cincinnati in free agency and the Colts released No. 3 tight end Bryan Fletcher, appears to be between Tamme and Gijon Robinson, who spent last season on the Colts' practice squad. Even if Tamme wins the job behind Clark, he is not expected to make huge Fantasy dividends in 2008. Ignore him until further notice.
