Everything i've read leads me to believe hes the guy in Texas. I dont expect Owen Daniel #s put I dont have many options. Any input?

[Bears_Rule]

I think he's a good reach play....can't expect much but who out there that's on the waiver at TE has as much upside?

[TennisMenace]

He's a back up, right?

Not really, he is likely to do most of the pass catching from here on out at TE with Owen D out.

Per Rotoworld:

Texans TE James Casey (knee surgery) has resumed practicing in full.
"He didn't miss anything today," coach Gary Kubiak said. "There have been no setbacks. He’s done a heckuva job to get back that fast." We expect Casey to take over as the primary pass-catching tight end, but it's advisable to hold off on starting him in fantasy leagues until he proves worthy.

Hey, I would love to pick him up too and start him. Look at my TE (Pettigrew) and you see he ain't much.

In fact, I make take a chance and pick him up and play him anyhow. I'm sure Pettigrew will only get 3 points. What's 3 points?

Would you value him more than Fred Davis or BPettigrew?

He agrees with you.

I just picked him up and inserted him in my starting lineup too. Like I said, no big deal if he gets 0. Pettigrew usually gets about that.

How do you guys not have better options at TE?

16 team league?

Clark, Gonzo, Gates, Witten, Celek, V.Davis, Heap, Olsen, Winslow, Heath Miller, Shiancoe, Carlson, Shockey, Keller, Boss...

you guys didn't manage to get one of those guys or were you all Daniels/Cooley owners?

and im not being a ######, im seriously wondering.

16 teams AND I had Daniels

And since you asked, here's whats available:(Sadness)

Tony Scheffler
Kevin Boss
Daniel Fells
Dante Rosario
Donald Lee
Randy McMichael
Will Heller
Jeff King
Sean Ryan
Daniel Graham

[WhiteWonder]

I think I might roll with Boss

Td's in 2 straight and the Falcons give up the 9th most fantasy points to TE's

12 man league - available TEs are the following:

Watson - no thanks
FDavis - thinking about him, but still no thanks
Heap - no thanks
ZMiller - no thanks
Finley - intriguing but still hurt
Bo Scaife - no thanks

So, you see why I just picked up Casey? This is a list of guys with major flaws/baggage.

I have Pettigrew and he ain't much to write home about and it sounds like he gives me some hope.

[madd futher mucker]

He's a very low end TE 2 this week, just because it is his 1st game back from injury. But the guy can do everything Daniels can do and more (he once played 7 positions in ONE game in college). He's a very mature rookie. If you are weak at TE (I'm not), he should be picked up NOW, because if he has a good game this week, you might not have a shot.

But realistically, it will probably take him a game or two to get on the same page as Schaub and show his stuff, assuming no set-backs.

I mean, I see why YOU picked him up but I still don't really see why you had to pick him up.

You owned Daniels? or Cooley? and didn't have either backed up with one of the 12 or so solid TE's I mentioned before?

The bye weeks really screwed things up for me. I had both CJohnson and MJD out as well as Sims-Walker in the same week. I had to drop a back up TE (Vernon Davis) in order to pick up guys to fill in.

The guys in my league just all seem to have 2 TE's each, which leaves me with very little. Oh well....it happens.

When did Vernon Davis become a back-up tight end?

I picked up Boss, and that is probably a safer play, but dang HOU plays on Monday night and I'm a sucker for that.

i dont want to be the guy who told you to start boss and he does nothing but i think he is the safer play based on what he did before the bye and the fact that Casey hasn't played or shown anything yet.

No big deal here.

Fred has started 2 games. 2 points and 6 points. Yawn!

[Junkie]

Thinking of starting him over Keller. Any thoughts?

Yeah...he is finally starting to get some more action and may be relied on heavily against the Pats who may score 1,000,000 points today.

Casey may be decent, but for now...all speculation. Who cares what the coach says...they always say crap.

Was just coming to do that.

[Milwalkeysbeast]

Thanks to this thread, I started Davis over Pettigrew.

While I was also changing my lineup last second, I also replaced Greg Jennings with B.Scott!


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh well, from reading everyone's comments, I am sure there were a few other Pettigrew owners who followed this advice.

Lets just hope Davis at least gets a few points.
