Which WR? WHIR

Postby oakstreetboy » Tue Oct 13, 2009 1:58 pm

Which 3rd reciever should I start this week, no PPR, 1 pt for 10 yards rush/rec, 6 pts for TD

Walter @ Cincinnati
Hester @ Atlanta
C. Henry v Houston
Avery v Jacksonville

Please rank them 1-4. Keep in mind, I also start Slaton, so starting Walter would give me two Texans this week

Leave a link and I will answer yours

Thank you!

Thanks for the help on mine. These WRs are similar in that you never know when they'll have a good game. This week I'd rank them:

1. Avery - The Rams have to throw to someone right? He's put up OK #s since Robinson's gone down.
2. Hester - Tougher matchup against Atlanta than Avery. Done well on the road in his other 2 games this year.
3. Walter - I don't see playing him and Slaton as a big deal. He's shown more consistency than the other 3.
4. Henry - Good matchup but outside of last week he seems to get lost among the other options in CIN.

1. Hester-Bears coming off a bye. Cutler will find him for some deep balls
2. Walter-Will get plenty of looks & opportunities.
3. Avery-Jags defense sucks but so does the Rams offense
4. Henry-Bengals will pound the ball on the ground against the Texans Henry may get 1 or 2 looks but too risky of a play.

1. Walter -- Leon Hall has been shutting down opposing teams' #1 WRs, but Schaub will still throw a lot of balls. I see Walter getting quite a bit of action, and either he or Own Daniels will get the receiving TD from Schaub this week.
2. Avery -- They have to throw to someone, right? He's healthy again, and the best option in the passing game (aside from SJax). Boller can throw deep, and Avery can run.
3. Hester -- This may just be me, but I can't get behind any of the Chicago WRs. Cutler just cares about his numbers, not about his WRs. His favorite target changes weekly, it seems. Too risky.
4. Henry -- Too few looks from Carson as of late. I expect Benson to do most of the work, but Ochocinco and Caldwell will be the recipient of the balls that are thrown. He could go big, but he's too risky.

1. Walter -- Leon Hall has been shutting down opposing teams' #1 WRs, but Schaub will still throw a lot of balls. I see Walter getting quite a bit of action, and either he or Own Daniels will get the receiving TD from Schaub this week.

A few comments: Walter is not the #1 WR on the Texans. Johnson is. However, I would go with the hot hand right now and Schaub should still throw for 250+ yards. I like Walter.

2. Avery -- They have to throw to someone, right? He's healthy again, and the best option in the passing game (aside from SJax). Boller can throw deep, and Avery can run.

Bulger is starting, not Boller. Avery is in my lineup and I like him this week.

3. Hester -- This may just be me, but I can't get behind any of the Chicago WRs. Cutler just cares about his numbers, not about his WRs. His favorite target changes weekly, it seems. Too risky.

I agree. No to Hester right now.

4. Henry -- Too few looks from Carson as of late. I expect Benson to do most of the work, but Ochocinco and Caldwell will be the recipient of the balls that are thrown. He could go big, but he's too risky.

I don't like Henry as a play either when you have Walter and Avery as #2 and #1 WR's.

Avery against the bad pass rush

Hester and Walter also look good, but i'd give Avery the nod...

Just to defend my competence: I know that Walter's not the #1--Andre Johnson is kind of a big deal in the fantasy world, and in the real NFL. I stated that Leon Hall has been shutting down WRs to argue that since AJ's production will/should/could be down due to Hall's presence, look for Schaub to go to Walter early and often.
