Denario Alexander. One week wonder or stud?

[DemonDeacon]

Topic is pretty self explanitory. Is this kid worth a pick up or is he just a one week wonder?

I think his main issue is he's a MAJOR injury risk. He's had 4 surgeries, almost one per year on his left knee ligaments. I think the only reason he had one big play is because SD didn't game plan for him and Sam Bradford is just amazing. I do believe he'll have some big plays, he had the talent to be a top 10 WR from the draft, but didn't get drafted because of his multiple injury issues.

So, the question becomes is he worth the gamble. High risk, high upside. His left knee is sore from playing just the one week. I am adding him to my waivers list because I need a WR this week, but i have him 4th behind Mike Williams, Anthony Armstrong, and Danny Woodhead.

I just figure, if he does become a major threat, he'll get double teamed and hurt his knee again.
