HELP with Bench WRs

Postby LBSAMBO547 » Sun Jul 26, 2009 1:27 pm

RIght now my starting WRs are Calvin Johnson, Anquan Boldin, and Marques Colston and my bench WRs are DeSean Jackson and Torry Holt. Well after the draft I noticed that Percy Harvin was not drafted, so since I already have a solid bench WR in D. Jackson, should I add Harvin and drop Holt? My dilemma is that Holt could have a bounce back year being the #1 guy in Jacksonville or Harving could be ROTY and put up great numbers (even more so if Favre joins). Mostly likely both would just ride my bench until bye weeks or an injury occurs. Also which of the two has the potential to be worth more in a trade later in the year?

THANKS

Hey Sam,

I would not drop Holt for Harvin. I think Holt could be a great WR3 or WR4 for most teams this year. While Harvin has oodles of talent and potential, I don't see how you can ever start the guy... I envision him having a few big games but most weeks he will score next to nothing.

I kinda agree with Indi.

If it was anyone else other than Percy Harvin, I would probably say go for it. But we're not even sure what kind of role he will be playing right now.

Holt >>> Harvin

Rookie Wrs usually don't perform well unless they go top 5 in the draft and then it's still a crap shoot.

WR1s usually trump WR3s.

stay with Holt. he might finally be healthy and have a QB that can get him the ball. and he's a #1 WR, not a situational player like harvin.
