ramblin'wreck 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I need a fill-in WR in a week other starters are on bye. It's a PPR league. Who would you choose between the 2 ? Wes Welker at NYJ Cotchery vs MIA With Booker is out, I am leaning toward Welker since he may get a start. He also returns punts. Our league also counts return yards. Leave links. I will answer all, as always. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's been getting plenty of looks and will still return kicks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
artamuss 0 Posted October 14, 2006 All I am hearing is to start Welker. Cotchery seems to have slipped a little. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=243936 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ggroovy17 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I'd start Wes Welker. Since he's starting, Joey really likes to throw it to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigDaddy1978 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I like Chad Pennington a lot more than Joey Harrington...heirgo, I would take Cotchery over Welker. Cotchery has shown what he can do and Chris Chambers is hardly getting the attention he deserves, let alone a #3 filling in for a #2. The Dolphins passing game is a recipe for destruction, so I would not rely on any Dolphin receiver to produce consistantly. My bet is on Cotchery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itsbigmoni 1 Posted October 14, 2006 I think the safe pick is Walker cause you know he'll get a few receptions and the return yards. But when it comes to touchdowns he might not get one because they have mcmichael, chambers, and brown so he's the 4th option. Cotchery on the other hand has a much better chance at getting a TD but he could also produce a dud. If you're a gambling man go with cotchery, if you want the safer option go with walker. Miami's D isn't what it use to be so if it was me i'd lean towards cotchery. Plus, did you see that stiff arm??

dcbandit 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I think I like Welker better here. Last week with Harrington starting, he was targeted quite frequentley, always what you want to see in a WR. Cotchery seems like he's a hit or miss kinda guy, so I'd have to go with Welker, especially in a PPR league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kcjoker 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I like cotchery for td's, but if you get his return yards, go with welker. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=243955 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thurman thomas is the man 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Go with Welker. Harrington favors him with the ball, or at least he did last week. For more on Welker, check out this week's Fantasy Football advice at http://www.davissportsdeli.com/. They got this guy Collin Kilpatrick. He's pretty good.

just_want_2_win 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Cotchery, Coles, and Pennington may be slowing as teams adjust to how to defend them. And there's no running game to take the heat off them. Harrington showed a proclivity to Welker last week and he's Miami's leading WR so far. I think given the trends, go with Welker. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=243960 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vinniedasquid 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Thanks for your suggestion. I don't know much about either of those guys except for the numbers they've put up. Haven't watched any of their games. How do you score return yards? Cotchery is having a breakout season and with Coles hurt and whining should have plenty of opportunites, but Miami's D is pretty solid, it's been their offense that's horrible. If you get significant points for return yards then I'd run with Welker, who should get his share of looks as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wpmkhein 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I think the safe play is Welker -- Harrington is showing SOME ability to stay on his feet and looks like he prefers Welker as his receiver of choice. Cotchery (I have him on my team) is a big play guy -- he can put up good points or not be effective at all. I would go with Welker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blue Crue 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I was all ready to say Crotch rocket until I read the part about your league counting return yards. Welker's getting more involved in the passing game and the added bonus of his return yards gives him the edge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sta 5 Posted October 14, 2006 I would start Welker for sure espicially if it a PPR. See mine http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=243977 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeBron 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I'd go w/ Welker. Leads the team in catches and gets a lot of looks. Thanks for answering mine. LeBron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vilma=GOD 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I would go with Crotchery, I have a feeling the Dolphins will target Chambers alot this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PatriotsNation4 0 Posted October 14, 2006 ya man seems like an easy decision for Welker. Leads the team with receptions, Joey loves throwing to him and hes a great returner. im starting Welker and i think he'll get 5 rec. 70 yrds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Illini4evr 0 Posted October 14, 2006 First and foremost, Cotchery isn't slipping at all, he's had strong weeks every single time except last week, which was bound to happen cause no receiver does great every week. Having said that, Welker is the wiser choice. He is averaging more TTA then Cotch and is going up against a banged up secondary in the Jets. And if your league rewards return yards then Welker is just that much better of a choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stopper 0 Posted October 14, 2006 I'm going against the trend here and I'll say Cotchery. Welker gets return yards and that's a plus, but Pennington is a better QB than Welker AND THIS HAS NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH ME NEEDING GOOD PRODUCTION FROM COTCHERY THIS WEEK AS A BYE WEEK FILL OH FITZ COME BACK SOON I MISS YOU!!!!!!

ramblin'wreck 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Wow, lots of responses here .. thanks! I think I did answer all the links here. Now let me give y'all a quick tally .. Welker: 19 votes Cotchery: 6 votes It's a landslide win for Welker. Thanks again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyBravo17 0 Posted October 15, 2006 Sorry to answer so late but I'd pile on with Welker. He was a favorite for Harrington vs the Pats. If the Jets D is similar to the Pats (duh) then he might be a favorite target once again! Thanks for your help with mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
