Meachem, Henderson, Burleson, Muhammad?

All are available, who do you take? Why?

*Note* We get points for return yards.

If I had any assurance that Henderson would get the proportion of targets he got Sunday he'd be the easy choice. It's hard to believe that given how they used their receivers last year though.

I'd probably go with Burleson, I think his role is more firmly set.

It definitely wouldn't be Mushin.

If Laurent Robinson is around on your wire I'd strongly consider him too. Bulger targeted him all day and they'll be throwing a lot this year.

 
Add Michael and Mark Clayton.

Since you guys count return yards is Cribbs available? He's clearly the best option if available.

 
Earl Bennett because he got 13 targets last game. Greg Olson only got 6. Jay Cutler is too arrogant to dump it off to Forte.

Cribbs and Mark Clayton are owned. Why the love for Michael? Wouldnt a healthier week 2 Bryant hurt his numbers? Burleson seems to be Hasselback's go to guy as of now and he returns kicks.

Did Cutler insult your mother? I agree with Bennett, but Earl 'aint good enough to take full advantage of those targets. Nobody on that Bears offense not named Devin or Greg is worth much in dynasty leagues(although Johnny Knox has mouth-watering potential)...
 
Cribbs, Breaston, and DeSean Jackson are most likely gone in all return leagues or all leagues for that matter.

I'd target Kevin Faulk if he's still available, he was doing returns for NE. I know he isn't a WR, but he's a stud if u get PPR as well.

Andre Caldwell seems to be doing kickoff returns for Cinci and also got 5 receptions for 55 yards.

Davone Bess is he punt returner for Miami, he won't get many td opportunities but he Miami's defense is good enough for them to get a decent amount of punt returns.

Robert Meachem is doing kickoff returns for NO, but he might not stay doing it because if Pierre Thomas comes back, Mike Bell/Reggie Bush will both go down the depth charts and either of those guys might take the return job. But obviously, with Drew Brees at QB, Meachem could have a TD any given week.

Nate Burleson does punt returns for Seattle and also led Seattle in targets week 1. He's someone you definitely want to target, especially if your league gives you more points for punt returns instead of kickoff returns.

Wade just signed in KC and may be worth a shot given a couple of weeks to get up to speed on the playbook.

Saints just resigned Roby. I think Meachum lost the returning gig
 
I just picked up Antwaan Randle El for a one week run. The Redskins will be playing the Rams and Randle El had a productive first week with a good amount of targets.

 
Mark Clayton all the way;

He's always had the talent, just needed his injury bug to buzz off. Now with a semi-gunslinger QB Clayton can make plays on a consistent basis.

In wk 1 Mason had 8-9 targets, and so did Clayton. Clayton also had a rush attempt.

off topic Schedule note> Balt. is at home in weeks 11 (Ind), 12 (Pitt), 14 (Det), and 15 (Chi).
