Doyle or Hooper ? (1 Viewer)

[BearsFan4Life]

Standard scoring .. no ppr

Need to start a TE for Reed's bye this week.

Doyle @ GB- looks like Allen will be back

Hooper @ TB - I am playing against Ryan so do I try and negate some points?

Thanks.

I'd go with Hooper for multiple reasons.  First, Dwayne Allen is returning for the Colts, and last week with Moncrief coming back it hurt Doyle.  I can only imagine having Allen in the mix with muddy things even more.  Second, Tamme is ruled out, so Hooper has no competition at his position.  Third, although Thursday night games are historically low scoring, the Falcons are one of the most potent offenses in the league.  I don't see them slowing down too much.

Hooper has a higher floor and as high of a ceiling as Doyle.

Good luck, and please see mine if you have a minute:  https://forums.footballguys.com/forum/topic/750689-hill-for-martin-whir/

I don't think its a lock that Allen is back this week. He's practicing a bit, but there hasn't been an indication that he'll be ready for this week. Doyle has been very solid every week until last week, and even then wasn't awful considering how below average Luck was. I think Doyle is a much safer option than Hooper, Hooper probably has a higher ceiling, but his floor might be 1-2 catches.
