Because after owning him for every year that hes been in the league he has built up my confidence in him.My thinking is Niners D is no joke, but their secondary are no world beaters. I figure they havent been focusing on Nicks, so he will be able to exploit some situations provided Eli can survive the pass rush, which I think will happen.
This is my first year owning him in any leagues, so I'm interested in your thoughts since you're a longtime owner. Does he typically perform well coming off an injury? I know that I was disappointed in week 1 after expecting him to perform (followed by benching him when he blew up the next week)...
Nice. I was thinking about pastrami for lunch today but ended up going with a French dip. It was solid but not spectacular.
Another example of a new member running around using our board as their personal jack off sock. Did you get off with this post?
No, but keep going. I'm almost there.
Do you pull this stuff away from a keyboard?
Hes had nagging injuries as long as I can remember and a few serious ones, but I cant think of a single time he hasnt performed well while injured or coming off an injury. Hes one of the toughest WR in the NFL, and plays hard every game.
uh, ya.you got him, you start him
That advice would have left you frustrated almost every week.
Different situations. Nicks = stud whenever he's active. Even when dinged up. A Johnson = assumed stud at beginning of year but isn't anymore.I wouldn't hesitate to scratch a healthy AJ. Iirc he's even playing less snaps by design this year to keep him fresh for later.
Agreed. Not only does AJ look old, but he barely looks to be part of the game plan anymore.I can't see how anyone would view him as an auto-start anymore.
Same choice for me, and I'm going insane trying to decide the right one. I was leaning toward Nicks, until I saw this quote today...
Yeah, I'm having a hard time being able to start him as well. I don't have any backup options in the late games due to injuries and bye weeks so it's either him at 4 or Mike Williams at 1. I'm probably going to go with Williams unless I hear something before the 1 oclock games start.
How has he performed while gimpy?
One terrible game, one amazing game. Makes it even harder!How has he performed while gimpy?
I guess the hope for you is that Williams has a great game and you don't have to sweat it. For me, it's Hartline or Bryant. I'm sure I'll make the wrong decision, but I have Hartline in right now. Nicks may be maddening all season...one of those guys that I miss the good games and he stinks it up when I use him. Just feel like I need to see something out of him today before I plug him in.
Thats just this year.One terrible game, one amazing game. Makes it even harder!How has he performed while gimpy?
He's been gimpy most of his career. He performs as a top 10 WR on average when he plays.One terrible game, one amazing game. Makes it even harder!How has he performed while gimpy?
This....
Do you by chance have a link? I'd like to read the reports. TIA.
Sorry bro, just typed in 'hakeem nicks' into the search bar of twitter throughout the week and read various news reports.You dont need to register to twitter to do this (I dont have an account)
Don't believe he has moved since the early projections.
Man, hope you stuck with TB Mike Williams!!
I did! Thank god. I really would have been kicking myself right now if I didn't.
Awesome - way to go. Glad it worked out. I sat Hartline and put Nicks in, so I still hope Hakeem has a good game. I'll post any Nicks injury update I see in THIS THREAD...keeping an eye on Twitter.
