Huge dilemma at TE...please help.....WHIR

[GeneralTsou]

Ok so Owen Daniels is my only TE and I do not wish to start him this week. The only problem is, I do not wish to drop anyone on my team for a 1-2 week fill-in. Normally I would drop my backup QB (Kolb) but in this case, I am starting him this week over Flacco. We only have 5 bench spots so I would either have to drop Mike Wallace, Johnny Knox, Reggie Bush, or Ahmad Bradshaw. I don't see any of these as droppable. I see great things from Knox and Wallace. Do I just roll with Owen Daniels and hope for the best?

I'd roll w/ him in week 1. They say he'll play 20 or so snaps, if they're all in the red zone, that's enough for me! The TE you'd pick up at this point will probably play a full game and put up what Daniels can in 20 plays. viewtopic.php?t=472458

Not much on the waiver wire

John Carlson vs. SF

Greg Olsen vs. DET

Heath Miller vs. ATL

Dustin Keller vs. BAL

Jeremy Shockey vs. MIN

I would roll with Daniels. There is no way I would drop Kolb. He is going to be your every week starter.

Go with Daniels, he has a good QB throwing to him and with AJ getting all the attention he will be able to find pockets of space, even if it is for 20 snaps...

I agree, I wasn't going to drop Kolb because I am starting him over Flacco this week. I also can't imagine dropping Knox, Wallace, Bush, or Bradshaw either.

you really think Owen Daniels will do more in limited snaps then:

John Carlson vs. SF

Greg Olsen vs. DET

Heath Miller vs. ATL

Dustin Keller vs. BAL

Jeremy Shockey vs. MIN

Carlson vs. Seattle would be a good start, however I don't believe for 1 or 2 weeks of Daniels limited work that Carlson is worth dropping anyone on your team. I say ride it out...

Exactly. I would much rather sacrifice Daniels limited a week or 2 than dropping a guy that could really help you during the season

If they are indeed going to limit his snaps to 20-25, do you think they put him in when then plan to throw to him?
