Anyone Starting Stallworth (1 Viewer)

I actually think that it's a sneaky play that might pay off. I would weigh it against your options. I have to start 3 wr's myself. I have Housh, Jennings, Chambers, Engram, Stallworth, and Branch. So, this week my options come down to starting Housh and Jennings.... and then either rolling with Engram (without Hass), or Stallworth. I actually had a great feeling about Stallworth before the season. Maybe even better now as he ought to be fresh. With Edwards being double teamed, Winslow (if he even plays) taking key coverage... Stallworth could really have an opportunity to run up some nice numbers. He can go deep, but he can also catch the short pass and do great things after the catch. I can see Anderson dumping it to him under pressure.... or Stallworth getting a couple bombs his way due to ineffective coverage on him.

The fact that it's a monday night game... and they will most likely be airing the ball out while trying to play catch up.... I like his odds.

I'd like to wait a week or 2 before playing Donte' for a couple reasons.

#1 - To see if he can actually stay healthy

#2 - To see his role with the team, 1 game won't be enough for me to plug him into my lineup unless he REALLY takes off against NYG. Seeing him through 2 weeks will be better to gauge his performances/roles with the team, then we'll be able to take a better look at Donte through his stats (namely Targets and Receptions).

CLE is going to be playing from behind alot of games so DA is EVENTUALLY going to have to air it out.

I might have to start Stallworth due to bye weeks and injuries, so I hope you are right.But the short passing game is where DA has struggled this season, so I'm not sure how much Donte will do on Monday.
