Help with WR corps for playoffs!

Postby bassackwards » Tue Nov 30, 2010 10:14 pm

Should I make a move for a WW wide receiver (standard scoring - no PPR - last week dropped Mike Williams TB for Manningham)?

Current WR's:

Brandon Marshall (WK 15 vs. BUF : WK 16 vs. DET)
Mario Manningham (WK 15 vs. PHI : WK 16 @ GB)
Calvin Johnson (WK 15 @ TB : WK 16 @ MIA)
Hakeem Nicks (WK 15 vs. PHI : WK 16 @ GB)
Mike Wallace (WK 15 vs. NYJ : WK 16 vs. CAR)
Dez Bryant (WK 15 vs. WAS : WK 16 @ ARI)

Possible ideas:

Mike Williams TB (WK 15 vs. DET : WK 16 vs. SEA)
Dion Branch (WK 15 vs. GB : WK 16 @ BUF)


I currently roster two TE's (Antonio Gates and Marcedes Lewis) because of Gates recent injury and I would have to either drop one of my current WR's or Lewis to pick up another WR...Who is the most valuble come playoffs as I am already in with a first round BYE?

I think you are fine at WR if you start 3
Manningham, CJohnson, MWallace, and DBryant are all solid plays no matter who they are playing here on out.
However, I am not convinced Nicks comes back this year (they said 3 weeks, but that was a VERY serious injury and even if he does come back and lay week 15 and 16 would you want to start him first game back?)
Also I think it is OK to drop Lewis now you have to play Gates if he is on the field. Gates at 85% is better than every other TE.
I think I would drop Nicks and pick up Branch.

Agreed. Best case IMO, Nicks is back and rusty/out of it in week 16, which helps fantasy playoffs owners roughly 0% ;-) ;-D
