Anyone have an opinion on Randy Hymes.

[Birdman]

Whats up with this guy. CBSPORTSLINE is saying that he is the number 1 guy now in Baltimore and to expect a lot out of him.

Any thoughts?

i have no clue any1?

[Buckychudd]

He's the #1 untill Travis Taylor comes back.....but I wouldn't touch him unless you're in a deeeep league, Baltimore has no passing attack.

Without knowing your WR roster and scoring rules it is very hard to give a worthwhile opinion...But that's never stopped me before.
I think he is worth a roster spot, unless you are stocked at WR. He is getting looks and if he produces Boller might like to have him around. Not sure about the severity of Taylor's injury or how long he will be out, but Hynes could do well the next two weeks.

what happened to kevin johnson? i thought he was the #1 WR?

[Birdman]

I have,

SMoss, great
Moulds, marginal
Keyshawn, disappointing
Fitz, very disappointing
Clayton, nothin yet

As you can see, I'm not stacked. With Keyshawn on a bye this week, I gotta start Fitz or Clayton. These guys have yet to give me a point. There's also talk of lingering ankle injury with Fitz.

I don't expect hymes to be a star, but I'm sick of 0 points out of my receivers.

What to do?

Should've drafted Randy Moss and Hines Ward

Ive been thinking of getting him myself.

As I have Jamal Lewis I have been paying particular attention to Baltimore games on NFL.com and he seems to get a fair few looks. With Taylor and Heap out and KJ not producing Boller has to have somebody to pass to. I wouldnt expect anything great from him but he could get you 60ish yards or something per week and maybe a long score as he seems to hit him pretty deep.

He is worth a look, dunno if I would drop any of your current receivers for him but if you can make some room elsewhere then go for it.

MMH, very helpful! Thanks for the input

Presto, worthless!

I picked him up in one league on Monday... I almost picked him up last week, but I wanted to give him a week and see, and sure enough he has a good week... The thing about a young QB in a system like Baltimore's is that he needs to have a receiver he is comfortable with and has chemistry with... When he finds that, he'll go there time and time again... I think Hymes has pushed himself to the forefront in the mind of Kyle Boller, and he'll probably get Boller's first looks... Even in a crappy passing game, that is worth something, especially when he's facing consistent 1-on-1 coverage because teams do not respect the passing attack... I wouldn't start Hymes just yet, but he's definitely worth stashing on the bench for right now if you have the room....
