Beanie Wells

Postby howard » Wed Sep 16, 2009 10:56 am

I have been thinking about dropping Wells. He is splitting carries and Hightower has shown to be a good receiver in a pass-happy offense. Is Beanie going to get many points this year?

I could pick up Carnell Williams. I know he has had 2 knee surgeries and is limited to 15 carries a week, but he's potentially better than Wells. Or I can pick up a 2nd TE like Watson.

Keep Benaie at this point IMO.. Hey may take a few weeks to find his niche.. You wouldnt be starting any of those guys you would pick up anyways as they would still be on your bench. Beanie has the most potential IMO and by mid season, he may be the man. Caddy is in a RBBC at best and is injury prone. Watson was a 1 week wonder... He matched his td total from last year in week one..

I'd also hang onto wells. He was looking a lot sexier prior to week 1, but I have a feeling he'll have more value at some point during the season than cadillac. Everyone is picking up carnell off of waivers, but what does he really do for you?
10 rushing yards - 1 pt
10 receiving yards - 1 pt
20 passing yards - 1 pt
All TDs - 6 pts (QBs favored)

It's too early to bail on Beanie, be patient.

Im hanging onto him...he was a more effective rushing week 1 then Hightower. Hightower fluked week 1 with Boldin and Breaston injured. SF did a good job with there coverage and Warner had no choice but to checkdown to Hightower. I wouldn't expect this type of play in the future.
