We are in the final stretch of the NFL offseason as the Arizona Cardinals<\/a> open training camp on July 22. Leading up to then, as we have for several offseasons, go through the players and position groups in the NFC West and rank them.<\/p>\n

Next up, we look at the top tight end duos for the Arizona Cardinals, Los Angeles Rams<\/a>, San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks<\/a> and rank them.<\/p>\n

1. Arizona Cardinals: Trey McBride, Tip Reiman\/Elijah Higgins<\/p>\n

McBride is one of the best tight ends in the NFL and, while he is behind San Francisco’s George Kittle in individually, Reiman is already a very good blocking tight end and actually played a little more as a rookie than Higgins, another solid tight end.<\/p>\n

2. San Francisco 49ers: George Kittle, Luke Farrell<\/p>\n

The 49ers added Farrell in free agency this offseason, a solid No. 2 blocking tight end. He has not yet scored a touchdown in the NFL. He played less than Reiman did last year for the Cardinals as a rookie.<\/p>\n

3. Seattle Seahawks: Noah Fant, AJ Barner\/Eijah Arroyo<\/p>\n

Fant and Barner are just fine. Arroyo, a rookie, gives them some athletic pass-catching upside.<\/p>\n

4. Los Angeles Rams: Tyler Higbee, Terrance Ferguson<\/p>\n

Higbee played three games late last season coming back from ACL surgery. He is now getting old at age 32, and Ferguson is promising but is a second-round rookie.<\/p>\n
