WR Opinions

[robotninja]

I am 0-2 so far this season with losses of 3 pts and 5 pts which really hurts. Now I think that I am going against a stronger team this week, and I'm thinking I need to start guys with a high upside.

I am still leaning towards Steve Smith (car) and Jennings as my 1-2 receivers but Im not sure about my 3rd. IT is a TE/WR spot and I have

Witten vs Houston
Austin Collie at Denver
Demaryius Thomas vs Indy

Witten had a decent game last week, Collie has a TD in each game so far, and Thomas may be Ortons #1. I am also wondering if Steve Smith is limited by Clausen playing against a Bengals Def that just tore Flacco apart.

I wouldnt be against sitting Smith and Going Jennings, Thomas/Collie/Witten if that is going to be my highest upside but I dont think I really trust Witten yet with the concusion and the health of Dallas O-line and terrible start.

Thanks for the help with mine.

I'm not sure I fully understand how many spots you're looking to fill. You said you're considering Smith and Jennings for 1-2 but don't know about your third, which is WR/TE. Later, you say that you're considering "Going Jennings, Thomas/Collie/Witten..."

So, I'll just rank the top four, IMHO:

1. Greg Jennings - Must start
2. Austin Collie - Must start in your situation
3. Jason Witten - Great upside, if healthy! If not, then go with #4:
4. Demaryius Thomas - Could be needed in high scoring game.

I'd avoid Steve Smith South because of the unpredictability of Clausen throwing to him and the toughness of the Bengals D.

Hope this helps!

I'd go with Witten if he's good to go. I remember in the game where he got the concussion he was pissed he wasn't going back in and seemed fine, but of course you never know with that. Houston allows a ton of yards so I'd pick him and keep checking updates.

The second would probably be Collie since the game is projected to be more pass friendly for Indy than running the ball.

Witten is going to have a big day against Houston.

Thanks for helping with mine earlier, and I agree with the others.

Jennings is a must start, so he's your WR1
Collie has gotten on the same page as Manning, so he can be your WR2
The TE/WR spot should definitely go to Witten. This game has shootout written all over it.

I'm not high on Smith since he's got a rookie throwing to him this week. I'm not sure if I can start him as anymore than a WR3.

Lastly, Thomas has a lot of promise, but I wouldn't start him yet considering you have great options.

Collie or Witten

Tough Call - If I had to pick probably Collie with Garcon being out
