Jeremy Maclin or Dez Bryant as WR2 in Week1? =WHIR=

Postby thepsychic » Thu Sep 08, 2011 11:05 pm

Which receiver should I start?

Maclin - He's healthy and given the "OK" for the game. I'm anticipating that he's at least 90% and should play close to his normal snaps. It's also a home coming for him and Vick loved passing to him last year so he may have a big game.

Bryant - The more gifted receiver of the two, but he's playing the Jets. Revis' main guy to cover may be Austin, but I anticipate him switching over to Bryant on some snaps. Cromartie isn't a shmuck, either. Most projections have Bryant scoring more this week, but I'm a bit hesitant due to the opposition.

I'd go with Dez as well. I'd feel better about Maclin's health after seeing him play full-time in a game. Like you mentioned, Austin is the one likely to spend time on Revis Island.

I agree, start Dez, Austin will be blanketed by Revis for most of the game imo, and eventho Maclin will play/start, I am suspect that all those pounds he dropped due to his illness are yet to be fully regained. Dez is a playmaker and Romo should look his way often, esp. for the homerun ball...

GL!

Start Dez. Too many question marks around Maclin while Dez gets a winnable matchup with Cromartie
