Jeremy Maclin or Eddie Royal??? 100% WHIR

Postby ftandiama » Mon Oct 12, 2009 7:20 pm

i have number 1 waiver priority this week and am wondering who should i use it on?

6pts/TD, 1pt/10 yards receiving, 1pt/10 yards rushing, 1pt/reception (PPR)

Jeremy Maclin or Eddie Royal???

here is my roster as of now:
QBs: Matt Schaub, Carson Palmer
WRs: Marques Colston, Reggie Wayne, DeSean Jackson, Nate Burleson
RBs: Matt Forte, Ray Rice, Glen Coffee, Darren McFadden, Michael Bush
TEs: Dallas Clark, Brent Celek
K: David Akers
DEF/ST: Steelers

QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, FLEX (WR/RB), TE, K, DEF/ST

with having Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark coming up on a BYE week, I'm considering starting a combination of 4 WRs and 2 RBs. IF that were to happen and I pick up Maclin, I'd be starting 3 Eagles (Djax, Maclin, Celek), or 4 including my kicker. I would never really consider doing that, but I lost faith in starting a Raider RB and the Eagles are going to be playing the Raiders as well.

what do you guys think? who do i drop for either one of them as well? Michael Bush or Darren McFadden?

Help me out please...thanks

if you're basing it on yesterday, i'd go with maclin...with curtis out, he'll draw the single coverage because of djax getting double teamed..

I disagree. I think Royal came out of his shell this week, and should start looking like he did last year. Its just taken a bit for him and Orton to find a rhythm. There are also so many weapons in Philly that Maclin, while a good talent, is probably a hit or miss guy.

As for who to drop, I think McFadden is the better runner. He's injured currently, but Bush hasn't done much in his place.

Thanks for the help on mine, I gotta go with Royal too, not only do I think he came out of his shell, that offense did, with Marshall now back out there drawing double teams Royal is going to be open a lot more. I like Maclin but I agree, the Eagles have a ton of options, although he may take the job from Curtis after yesterday. But the Eagles are hit or miss, you just don't know what you are going to get every week. Plus, they were playing the Bucs, Royal did that against the Pats, big different.

Maclin is still a rookie, so therefore, I would go with Royal who is coming off his breakout game.

I say Royal. Maclin just got the start to let curtis rest. Once curtis is back on the field he will not get the same looks.

I agree. I have Royal, Maclin and Austin all on the waivers. And I'm going to try to pick Royal back up. (Dropped him to get a bye week back this week)

Royal put up pretty good numbers last year. And Orton seems to finally finding him and getting that offense moving a bit. I'm not sold on Maclin yet
