I just picked up Johnny Knox (Chi) off the waiver as a backup / 3rd WR... However I noticed Kevin Walter (Hou) is available .. after being injured for 2 weeks he came back Sunday with a good game, 96 yds and 1 TD. With Schaub throwing all sorts of TDs, I'd expect Walter to get some good looks as long as he stays healthy.
Bottom line, should I keep Knox, or drop him and grab Walter??
Here's my WR lineup (start 3): Calvin Johnson (Det) DeSean Jackson (Phi) Wes Welker (NE) Mario Manningham (NYG) Johnny Knox (Chi)
0.5 PPR 14-team league. All TDs are 6. QB - Vick, Tannehill RB - CJ2K, TRich, Pierre Thomas, Redman, lamar miller WR - S Smith (CAR), Demaryius, Hartline, TY Hilton, Hixon TE - Witten, Chandler
Texans - explosive offense, with years of experience with the same offense and head coach, and Schaub is going to have a couple huge games...and a couple meh games....but Walter will see tons of options as opposing teams will focus alot of Andre johnson and Steve Slaton...Walter is a no.2 on a really good pasing offense
Bears - new QB, who is still developing chemistry with everyon, equestionable offense, and Knox is the third option behind Hester and Earl Bennett....
Walter will get way more targets, and he will be the more consistent producer. but knox always has a chance to connect on a homerun...
bottom line, i would say Walter no question...he is a very underrated player in this league, and last year scored 8 TD's....his hamstring does not look like a big issue as they wisely held him out the first two weeks to let it heal completely so he would be fresh for the rest of the season...
I'm going to echo what everyone else is saying, take Walter hands down. I actually originally drafted him, but after being hurt for two weeks, I was forced to drop him for Manningham.....Now I'm thinking of turning around and picking him up again. But to be quick: Yes, Walter over Knox
