Tony Gonzalez is widely considered one of the best tight ends we've ever seen. Fittingly, you'll see that he makes this list on two occasions. His first all-time season came in 2003, when the 14-time Pro Bowler scored 10 touchdowns with 916 yards and 8.64 yards per target.
A catch rate of 67% is a big reason for his AV of 11 posted in his seventh NFL season.
