Marty Booker......Peerlis Price.........what the @#$%**%#

[L.A. Smogg]

Man I am getting creamed at wide receiver...........Anybody see any upside for these two?..........

They're both getting killed by bad QB play. Price apparently isn't used to being a #1 WR and getting the double teams, because he was opposite Moulds last year. He should improve as the season goes on, as he adapts and when Vick gets back. Booker seems to be getting killed by Kordell Stewart, who absolutely sucks. Just hope that Kordell loses his job soon, because their backup can't be any worse than him.

I hate to say it, but Peerless looks a little like a fraud. As in a guy who's stats were artificially inflated by flying under the radar as defenses keyed on Moulds.

We know Booker is the real deal. This could be a tough year for him, but my gut tells me that regardless of the
QB situation he'll pull things together.

I haven't seen Atlanta play yet, so I can't speak to Price's situation, which will hopefully improve when Vick returns (as long as its not at the expense of my TE Alge Crumpler).

As for Booker, it seems like Kordell doesn't have the same chemistry with him yet that Miller and Chandler (who also weren't very good) did. Because of this, the ball is getting spread around between Booker, Terrell, White, and TE Desmond Clark, making all except Clark pretty useless for fantasy purposes. Also the Bears offense hasn't been very good so far, but Booker has proven that he can produce good numbers in a bad offense, so that alone shouldn't be the problem.

I compare Booker this year to Corey Bradford or Chad Johnson; he's on a team that royally stinks though he's still the #1 receiving talent. So he's worth a flyer, but I agree that until Stewart either shapes up or gets booted (maybe they'll re-sign Jim Miller) Booker won't have as great a year as in the past. I would expect at least 5-6 TDs, though... hopefully whatever QB is running the show by week 6 knows who to throw it to.

Someone just cut Booker in one of my leagues; I'm going to snap him up and hope he turns it around.

[lifeform]

Ha HA man are you screwed this year.

[josebach]

Ha HA man are you screwed this year.

LOL

Hope it's not a money league.

I couldn't take it anymore, I had Booker last year, he was so frustrating for me, and I got him again this year. I had to drop him to the ww, got Bobby Shaw though... hope he continues the tradition of thworks out in the 81 jersey similar to Price. Last week I started KRob, Booker, and Quincy Morgan. WR's always bite me.
