Which would you rather have? You would have Torry Holt as your #1 WR....you have to start three WR's and one TE!

 

Steve Smith, Javon Walker, Dallas Clark

 

or

 

Amani Toomer, Donald Driver, Tony Gonzalez

 

I made so many trades this week I lost track! I have the first group, now I'm thinking it may not have been the right move!

 

Leave a link or simply reply and I'll help you......later

First of all, this is closer than people are making it out to be. Dont be blinded by the names...look at the numbers.

 

Toomer is far from being "straight trash". He is currently a top ten WR in all of my leagues. Taking a look at the stats I see Toomer scoring 14.7ppg, while Steve Smith is only one tenth of a point better at 14.8ppg.

 

Driver is putting up 11.0ppg vs Walker's 13.3 so the edge at WR goes to the Smith/Walker combo, but not by too much. I will say that it is more reasonable to expect Smith to keep performing at this level than Toomer, so factor that in also, but dont forget to also factor in how much improved Eli Manning is this year.

 

On to the TE's...Gonzalez has been outscoring Clark by a couple points per game and that gap will probably grow even wider as Trent Green returns.

 

Final numbers: (using 1pt for 10 rec/rush yds, 6pts TD, 0.5ppr)

 

Smith/Walker/Clark - 34.1ppg so far.

 

Toomer/Driver/Gonzalez - 33.8 ppg so far.

 

So you can see that actual production has been nearly identical for the two groups.

 

I would go with the first group due to upside of S Smith, but I would also be looking to upgrade TE.

Good info.....that is my biggest fear, Green comes back and starts hitting Gonzo like he did in the first game and Clark continues to be so sporatic....yikes!! Thanks for the reply!

I think you did well, but I agree that this isn't so lopsided.

 

The difference maker, I think, is going to be Driver.

 

I was way big on him this pre-season and own him in all leagues (Holt as well :headbanger: ). Lots of things are happening that are starting to worry me.

 

Jennings...

 

K rob...

 

The drops...

 

GB not getting totally blown out lately...

 

etc.

 

I think some combination of the many concerns with Driver are going to start bringing his production down.
