KryptonKnights 6 Posted September 29, 2012 Week 2 Box Score: VaGiants 36 at Carolina 7 I would say that just about answers the question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,459 Posted September 29, 2012 I just grabbed Barden. He's got more upside, and I've got this sneaky feeling that Nicks may be hurt for a while. I don't need to start him (Green, Harvin, Maclin) but I wouldn't mind doing it if I had to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PATSSOX 22 Posted September 29, 2012 I just grabbed Barden. He's got more upside, and I've got this sneaky feeling that Nicks may be hurt for a while. I don't need to start him (Green, Harvin, Maclin) but I wouldn't mind doing it if I had to. I also did in 2 leagues. Nicks is always hurt it seems and the fact that it is the opposite knee of the broken foot is not good. 2 flat tires he has It was probably mostly Carolina's defense but that game last week Barden looked wide ass open on every play. He is 6'-6" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zac3434 5 Posted September 29, 2012 I would say that just about answers the question. Yes, a link to a game where Hicks and Hixon are out, clearly shows us that Barden is better WR of the 3 to own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Law 220 Posted September 29, 2012 Yes, a link to a game where Hicks and Hixon are out, clearly shows us that Barden is better WR of the 3 to own. Exactly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
effective 0 Posted September 29, 2012 They've been talking up Hixon for years and the guy never does anything. Even when he does sniff the field. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PATSSOX 22 Posted September 29, 2012 Yes, a link to a game where Hicks and Hixon are out, clearly shows us that Barden is better WR of the 3 to own. It shows who put up big numbers that is all And me personally I like players that put up big numbers. If a player, like Braden, is given an opportunity to start for first time and said player catches 9 balls for 138 yards and gets another start the following week i am starting that player. So you guys take what you will from that but im going with Barden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patmos 2 Posted September 29, 2012 I'm starting him too, but out of desperation. Last week he was up against a rookie who played way off of him, this week he gets Asomugha... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
72dolfan 5 Posted September 29, 2012 I'm starting him too, but out of desperation. Last week he was up against a rookie who played way off of him, this week he gets Asomugha... He does get Asomugha, but Cruz will get the double team. The big beneficiary will probably be Bennett, but a 6' 6" WR makes for a nice Red Zone target too.

monk 1 Posted September 29, 2012 They've been talking up Hixon for years and the guy never does anything. Even when he does sniff the field. Been a Giant forever ... never heard anyone talking up Hixon other than as a kick returner and possibly a 3rd WR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes he put up big numbers but they're saying he did it while not only Nicks was out but Hixon was also out that game but i also picked up Barden in two of my leagues and i'm trying to decide if i wanna start him over Colston anyone have a comment on who to start out of them two???

Maybe Hixon will catch a few balls but the 9 catches for 138 last week by Barden nearly matched Hixon's 7 year career totals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Gladstone 33 Posted September 30, 2012 He's been great this season, but this is the week Bennett really explodes all over our faces. 100 yards and 2 scores. Also Barden > Hixon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gepetto 1,013 Posted October 1, 2012 I told you guys it was Hixon!!! It should be Barden. Hixon sucks! Are you watching? I predict for the 2nd half Barden starts and Hixon is benched. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
