Help me pick my #1 & #2 receivers!

Recommended Posts

I have 2 picks back-to-back coming up shortly in an 8-team draft. I've already gone RB-RB-RB...with Portis in the keeper draft, then SJax/Ronnie in the 1st/2nd rounds. Now I need to go WR-WR I think to solidify my offense. Offensive scoring looks like this, and we start QB-RB-RB-WR-WR-TE-K-DEF each night:

 

WR/RB Total Yardage Bonuses:

100+ Yards: 2 Points

150+ Yards: 4 Points

200+ Yards: 6 Points

 

WR's already off the board:

- Steve Smith

- Chad Johnson

- Terrell Owens

- Larry Fitzgerald

- Marvin Harrison

- Torry Holt

- Randy Moss

- Anquan Boldin

- Donald Driver

- Chris Chambers

 

My top choices (as I see), in order:

- Hines Ward

- Plaxico Burress

- Reggie Wayne

- Matt Jones

- Santana Moss

- Deion Branch**holdout

.

.

.

the rest

 

I'm leaning towards Burress/Wayne right now to take back-to-back because the WR core is getting pretty thin, especially since I need a #1 & #2. So what do you think?? Go Burress/Wayne...or Burress/Ward...or another combo?

I'm guessing most people will tell you Ward and Wayne, although I think Plax is going to produce this year. It's probably safer to go Ward and wayne, however. Check on Big Ben's status however before going with Ward.

 

Good luck. Please see mine, thanks.

A couple others not on the list could be Roy Williams and Donald Driver.

 

I would prob go Williams and Plax/ Ward/ or Driver

Reggie is a must, he is in for a big year (IMO)

 

Then personal preference for the next one, Ward vs. Burress. I lean toward Ward, but you would do fine with Burress as well.

 

You didn't list Roy Williams, who I would take over both Ward and Burress, risk/reward type of pick.

Yeah I've been looking at Roy...but in an 8-team league I could almost grab him as a 3rd receiver on the next turn-around. I'm taking Wayne for sure, then the next pick is tough. Driver is on list of taken players.

 

The thing with Ward is he is their only real option, and will get blanketed in coverage. I like Burress this year too, but I'm looking to get Eli as well...and thats one thing I dont like is having a QB-WR from the same team...I duno, just personal preference.

8 team league? Wow. Wayne and Plaxico from that group that's left.

Yeah I know, it's my first one so it's a little harder to predict who goes when. But it's a league of long-time buddies, with a very basic scoring system. I'm not looking at it as my "main league"...more like a side league to have fun with buddies...and take their money :D
