Alex Smith or Chris Baker as my 2nd TE?

Normally I wouldn't carry a 2nd, but I have Witten and it remains to be seen if he will retain his elite status this year...

Are you in a TD only league, or do you also get points for yardage? If it's the latter, I'd definitely go with Baker. His 7 catches for 124 yards (17.7 avg) indicate that he's going to be an integral part of the Jets offense this year. If you're only getting points for TD's, than Smith may be the better option. Four catches, but two of them went for touchdowns. I know it's early, but it looks like Smith is going to be a goal line option for the Bucs, while Baker's going to have an opportunity to run some longer routes.

Yards too, the standard Yahoo public league head-to-head settings.

I'd go with Baker then.
