Miles Austin or Austin Collie???

Postby Supersonic » Mon Oct 12, 2009 10:35 pm

Non-ppr. Which WR would you take heading forward? I'm thinking Collie, since he is getting red zone looks every game and he has been looking very solid. Miles Austin, on the other hand, has the very unreliable Romo throwing to him. What do you guys think?

I'd drop Heap and Garcon for Collie and Austin.
Gates is off his bye and must start every week. If you end up having to grab a TE off waivers in case Gates gets hurt you can drop your Indy WR for him.

Both have value for a week or two more til Gonzo comes back then what. Your talking about 2 WR who will have to move down to #3 and #4 options eh hardly rosterable.

I updated my sig to accurately reflect my lineup now. Right now, I am lined up (depending on how waivers gothrough) to drop Favre for Eddie Royal, then I have two waivers to drop Harrison, the first one being for Collie, the second for Austin. I am thinking of hanging on to Heath Miller as a backup, just in case Gates goes down. I think I got lucky snagging him up and shouldn't let him go quite yet. What do you think? Thanks ahead for any responses.

Personally I'd take the chance on Miles.

Of course, it is a chance because right now he's a one game wonder. But dallas has had issues with their WRs, and Miles will have every opportunity to continue as a go-to guy.

On the other hand, Collie is probably going to be way too inconsistent to be considered a reliable starting WR for fantasy.

I guess if you are looking for a guy to plug in occassionally, then Collie probably the safer bet right now, but what I am saying is that I think Miles has the better chance to establish himself as a regular fantasy starter (more upside).

good luck
