Start Welker in Week 2?

Postby Harry Halfzeees » Tue Sep 14, 2010 12:04 pm

I picked up santonio holmes in the late rounds to store and my only other back up choice is Bernard Berrian. Last week my starters were Andre Johnson, Welker, and Jabar Gaffney. I was also considering dropping Berrian and picking up Mario Manningham. Any thoughts?

Welker should start in week 2. ESPECIALLY if your in PPR. I am 50/50 on the Manningham/Berrian suggestion. Berrian is pretty much the guy in Minnesota and that offense will come around. Mannignham might be getting lost in the shuffle between Smith and Nicks in NY...tough call on the pick up, but I would start Welker if I had him!

I am not in a PPR league, and the patriots are playing the jets who obviously have a great defense.

Welker is a must start. He put up a couple of TD grabs against a good pass defence last week. He may not be 100% back from his injury last year, but seems to me that if he is only 80%, it's good enough to put up the numbers he did last week.

Berrian might be better than Mario for now, but I see them being even long-term.

Welker is a must start every week. He is Brady's bread and butter!

No ill effects from both players and Brady looks sharp!
