In Leagues where Return Yardage counts at anything around 0.5 the same rate as Receiving or Rushing yardage Welker was a top 30 WR last year so the Frisman Effect is not applicable here.
Now - if Nate Washington were being added then you would have a case to argue.
Wes Welker is a stud in leagues that award return yardage. If Marty Booker had gotten injured enough to miss a few weeks, I would add Welker just based on his receiving ability..

I didn't see past the 1st quarter becuase I had to come to work but watching in the NFL.com Gamecenter it seemed Welker was the target a lot near the end when Culpepper was trying to make something happen - that can only be a good sign for Welker owners...
One of my leagues counts return yards at 30yds per point. He netted 12.45 pts. I am thinking of dropping R Brown for him since Dainty Stallworth is in Phillie now.
Did Wes actually catch a ball in the second half (after Booker came back)?
I think, therefore I am. I think fantasy, therefore I am unreal?
