NEWCOMER REPORT: Rookie fifth-round pick Brent Celek has been the most impressive player of the first-year group and could actually start the season at tight end if veteran L.J. Smith (groin injury) is not ready. Celek has shown excellent hands and the ability to get yards after the catch and is a better blocker than advertised. He has outperformed veteran backup Matt Schobel throughout camp and had a good opening preseason game in Baltimore. The 6-4, 255-pound Celek still needs to acclimate himself with the intricacies of the West Coast offense, but for now he's the best the team has at the position.
