TE- Boss, Heap, or Gates?

Postby moochieh » Sun Dec 05, 2010 11:24 am

This week is a must-win, but not only is it a must-win, I need to score at least 15 more points then the next guy to sneak into the playoffs. My team is set right now at everything but TE where I must choose between Boss vs. WSH, Heap vs. PIT, or Gates vs. OAK. If I wait to see if Gates is available and he is not, then I will have to play Heap because he's got a sunday night game. I think I should just go with Boss as the Giants have no receivers healthy and he fared well in a receiving role last week. What do you think?

This is a no-brainer if Gates is healthy... but he's not. Boss is a bust as far as i can see. Remember two weeks ago when Gronkowski hit big for three TD's against Pittsburgh. I think Heap can have a nice game this week. I'd rank them Heap, Gates then the other guy.

Hope it helps, thanks on mine.

I think you have to go with the guy who has actually done something this year and is healthy, Heap is your guy

I mean for the record Boss has a TD in 3 of his last 4 games so he has performed as of late.. more opinions are appreciated

Boss is the safest pick, I wouldn't go with Heap in any situation, and Gates is a high risk/reward pick.
If Gates can play just the whole game, not even at 100% he will be better than Boss I believe, since Rivers loves Gates...
But Boss is the safe plug. I would go with Boss unless there is some really good news on Gates...
good luck
