Anyone starting Joey Galloway this week? (1 Viewer)

Not sure what to do with this guy. I was only relying on him as a WR3 in a keeper league, but I thought it'd be a pretty damn good WR3.

I may - but dont really have any other options - start 3 and my bench is A battle or C Wilson. May pick up R williams or b berrian or w welker off waivers.
 
I do not own Galloway in any league (I did last year) but he had two zero catch games last year. He followed the first one with a 2 TD game and the second with a 138 yard game. That may bode well for him.

 
Im not sure what to do with him this week. I can start him as my final WR, or I can also opt for Williamson or Wilford. I think all 3 could potentially do well, but its anyones guess really. Think Ill still go with Joey just because I do still think hell have a good year, but I was quite surprised to get a goose egg from him to say the least.

 
He will probably be covered by Hall, and I hear Abraham and Kearny may start. Both of those guys went from probably being out to feeling much better in a day, can anybody say HGH :bs:

 
yep. gotta start 4 of 7 (te/wr combined): Holt, Wayne, Galloway and Watson with Engram, kenninson and Wilford on the bench. The only change i see is putting Engram in for either Watson or Galloway, but probably just stick with my first instincts for now.

i'm starting troy williamson in favor of galloway. the bucs play one of the best defenses in atl this weekend and chris simms, for lack of a better word, blows.
 
I don't have a lot of options here. I lost Joe Jurevicius for the short term, and the next guy is Travis Taylor (yikes). I'll just have to hope for Galloway and the Bucs' passing game to shake it off. This is a league with limited waiver moves and small rosters, so I might or might not be able to get some short-term WR help.

 
Im starting Antonio Bryant instead of Galloway. Galloway had one of his 0 catch games last year against ATL D. Hall is a great CB, with the speed to keep up with Joey. TB offensive line is banged up and Caddy is banged up.

 
I am not going to panic after one week. I am starting him and expecting a 7 catch 100 yard and 1 TD performance. TB will come out firing all their gun's after last week. If they don't then I will have concerns. Division game and already a must win for them.

Your receiving corps is pretty bad, unless you're playing in a 16-team league.I'd say it's a toss-up between him and Williamson, but because TB's offense should be better, I guess I'd go with Galloway.You really only have one decent WR in Ward... after that is just a bunch of trash.Might try scouring the waiver wire.

Randy Moss is bad?Seems like he has 4 WR1s for their respective teams. How bad could it be?
 
I'm starting him over Troy Williamson and Eric Parker. Week one was an abberration caused by a fantastic Ravens D. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. At least for this week...

 
Atlanta was one of the teams that held him to 0 catches last year. Hall has quickly become one of the best shut down corners in the league, and they are likely to have some good pressure on Simms.

On the other hand Gruden was quoted as saying that the Bucs need to do what ever it takes to get the ball in the hands of his playmakers Galloway and Cadillac. Gruden loves Galloway and I'm sure he blames part of the loss last week in not getting the ball to Joey.

 
I don't have much of a choice, I'm starting him.

Damn Chris Simms, damn him to hell.

I have him benched in lieu of Randy Moss and Donald Driver, and have Donte Stallworth above him on my 'depth chart'.

Well, when only one of them breaks 1000 yards, I'd say pretty bad.Shell doesn't want Moss on his team anymore, and he'll get his wish after the season.Gruden is trying to spread the ball around and focus more on Clayton, because Galloway is gone after this year.Williamson is still largely unproven, and is only the #1 by default because of suspension/how high he was drafted. He still has a lot to learn, and while there's no reason to believe he shouldn't be effective this year, calling him a #1 as if he were in the same tier as Hines Ward is pretty bad.He's probably looking at about an 800/5 average from his 2-4. Just because someone is listed as a #1 does not make him a solid fantasy option.
 
ESPN was making a pojnt earlier today, that the last time Simms got throttled as TB's QB, he came back strong in the next game, throwing for some 290 yards and a few tds..that team was atlanta, same as today's opponent..

I'm thinking that Galloway is going to have a very good day

Welcome to the essance of Joey. That's what Joey does - he's a very boom or bust player. Some weeks you get bupckus some weeks he'll be the highest scoring receiver in the league. You can't afford to sit him because there's no rhyme or reason to when he has big games, it just depends on whether he makes the big plays or not, and that can happen against anybody. You should have known that when you drafted him, but now you know.PS. LOL at all the people writing off Galloway after one week.

I benched him in favor of Bryant, Edwards, and Muhammed.

Galloway has more receptions and yards than Edwards & Muhammed at this point.

 
The ONLY issue with Joey Galloway is that he is injury-prone.

IF he is healthy, he should start every single week.

When he plays, he produces. Period.

:confused: 0 Catches for 0 Yards ring a bell
No WR will put up great numbers every week. I never meant to imply that Galloway can do this. You start Galloway every week IF he is healthy because over the course of a season he will put up great numbers. he tore his ACL in 2000 and it affected him in 2001. He hadn't recovered yet. Now, he is healthy and 100%. You start him every week because over his career whenever he is 100% he puts up stud numbers.
 
I swear Galloway continues to be the greatest WR steal in the draft. I can't believe I got him in the lower mid rounds.

 
I'm starting him in one league. Not sure about the other. I have more options in the other league....
Started him in one league :banned: :pickle: :thumbup: Didn't start him in the other :banned: :sadbanana: :thumbdown: The wonderful thing about this emoticon? :banned: When things go well, have a beer and celebrate. And when they don't drink anyway to drown the sorrows!?!?!
