I can't decide whether to start at WR#2 I've got: Plaxico Burress (vs JAC) Jordy Nelson (at Car) Robert Meachem (vs Chi) Who do you guys think will have the biggest game (Not PPR)?
Plax easy the packers and saints spread the ball out too much for either of those guys to have consistant numbers.
Tough decision, but I'd go with Jordy Nelson, strong offense against a weak defense and he is a favorite target of Rodgers. Meachem could be a good pick with Colston and Moore out, but the Bears defense could slow the Saints offense. Also, I don't trust Burress to be a reliable fantasy option yet. It took him more than a half-game to record his first catch of the season.
Tough decision because Carolina's pass defense isn't actually that bad; however, it is aaron rodgers and I fully expect it to be a blow out resulting in an increase in running. I think though with Colston out you would have to expect Meachem to be leap into the WR1 spot for NO considering Henderson is a poor route runner. I go with Meachem
Wow, very tough decision. Basically a bunch of coin-flips. I might lean towards Plax, with the recent news that Holmes might not be available Sunday. If Holmes does play, I'd roll the dice with Meachem. Now watch Jordy blow up for 2 TD's, haha.
plax definitely. both mecham and nelson are not reliable fantasy options. i might go with meacham due to the colston and lance moore injuries. him and henderson will get looks
I'd lean towards Nelson or Meacham as Brees and rodgers consistently throw for over 300 yds. NO has the better running attack and Chicago will probably defend the pass better than Carolina. I would have to go to Nelson. It's not the glamorous choice but like others have noted, it's a coin flip.
How are either of those statements dumb? There is a good change Plax is the #1 receiver if Santonio doesn't play. While GBP and NOS receivers might put up more fantasy points per year than Plax, they won't be consistent. I believe you will see them have a big game and then fall off for a game. So when you look at the stats at the end you'll see that they Averaged X number of points but I'd prefer to have a guy that I knew would be giving me a set number points per week. :finssuck:
Soo....I started Plax...lost my game by 6. The fact that I had to pick the wrong one of three just hurts right now.
This is why i almost never draft player from my own team. Its to hard to think honestly when there is favoritism involved. Meachem honestly is a legit Number1/2 every week once their receivers are back 100% then Drew will go back to his rotations with the ball and Meachem will fall to a flex spot worthy receiver.
