Pick up Vick, Collie, Royal, etc.?

Postby taw856 » Mon Sep 13, 2010 2:21 pm

My roster:
QB J. Cutler, (D. McNabb)
RB R. Rice, A. Foster, (S. Greene), (L. Maroney)
WR Ca. Johnson, H. Nicks, S. Smith-CAR, (M. Floyd)
TE J. Finley
K J. Feely
DST Ravens, (Bears)

Waiver options:
D. Garrard (JAX)
M. Vick (PHI)
B. Jackson (GB)
F. Taylor (NE)
M. Clayton (STL)
A. Collie (IND)
M. Massaquoi (CLE)
E. Royal (DEN)
J. Shipley (CIN)
J. Jones (HOU)

Will definitely be dropping the Bears. Can't decide whether I should drop Maroney, too.

In what order should I rank my potential waiver claims?

I'd say pick up Brandon Jackson first, then possibly Collie or Jacoby and drop Maroney.

I'm really high on Denver offense right now. I might be the only one. Royal isn't a bad pick up at all. They have a pass first offense and lots of 3 wide sets. Orton is serviceable to get the ball to them. Maroney can be cut to get any of these guys.

Thanks for the help with mine. Maroney is definitely droppable, NE RB's are just too big a crapshoot from one week to the next. In order, I'd look at:

B Jackson - the only good RB pickup in that list, and should be the highest priority
M Clayton - seems the immediate first option for Bradford already
E Royal - will split targets with Gaffney
A Collie - will split targets with everyone wearing a Colts uniform
J Jones - biggest upside of all the receivers, but now they're more balanced between run/pass

Good luck!

Thanks for your help. I'd go B.Jackson 1st and drop Maroney. He's been in the doghouse and will split carries with Taylor who looked great week 1.

Then I'd go either Clayton or Royal. I'm high on the Denver offense as well and think Royal's going to have a good year. Not so sure what to expect out of the Rams offense but they do seem like they'll be throwing a ton. Tossup really. I'd lean toward Royal.

So consensus seems to be:

1. B Jackson

2/3/4/5. Collie,Royal,Clayton,Jacoby in some order.

Any more thoughts on where Vick should fall in the waiver wire-pickup order given my thin QB depth? And/or on the order of Collie/Royal/Clayton/Jacoby?

Thanks for the help so far. ;-D

If I had to put an order on 2-5, I would go:
2. Royal (He is a big time WR, proven that he can do 90+ catches and produce. The pass first offense means the ball will be thrown a majority of the time and he is the only one of the 3 that has a 90+ catch season in Denver.)

3. Clayton (Only reason I didn't put him in front of Royal is because Bradford is sure to be up and down. He seems to be his number 1 guy but teams are going to catch on and Jackson is the only other offensive weapon, so they can sit on Clayton and take him away.)

4. Collie (He gets catches but splits alot and is a 3rd WR option. He seems to be a TD threat but he only get around 600-700 yards. Clayton and Royal both look to have more by seasons end, in my opinion)
