Hank Basket - Sleeper Alert? (1 Viewer)

Wilbur Wood

I was listening to Sirisu Fantasy Sports Radio yesterday and one of the guests was pimping Hank Basket as a 2H sleeper pickup (he's availalbe in most redraft leagues, but probably not in many dynasty leagues).

Childress will definately go out of his way to demonstrate that the Vikes still have the deep threat capability without Moss and Basket has always earned plaudits for understanding Childress' system. Chilly wants to keep Harvin in the slot as he is built in big play strikes into the offense with Harvin working the slot. Rice is still weeks away from contributing. Chilly knows that downfield threats are needed to maximize AP's running lanes.

Hank Baskett may finally get the opportunity to show his considerable skills in a feature role.

 
Weren't you watching when he dropped all those Peyton Manning passes? If looks could kill Manning's stare would have killed that bum when he was at Indy. He isn't worth a roster spot on a 100 man roster.

 
my favorite part was when he muffed the on sides kick and then IND lost. if you're best hope is hank Baskett, you shuold take up chess as a hobby or model railroading.

He's unowned in all 14 of my leagues including 12 dynasties, and they all had a Wed night WW (last night). No one I know is buying into sleeper value for TisketTasket.I would, however, possibly take a look at Shiancoe, Lewis, Berrian (Camarillo?) if desperate for a one week play. Shiancoe beyond one week also. These would all be ahead of Baskett for me.

I think Berrian is probably your best hope for a Vikings WW sleeper IMO. He looks to be the guy Favre turns to most often when Harvin isn't there. But I wouldn't even go there unless I was really desperate.

Coach Payton - Kick it right at Baskett he cant catch, how in the hell is he on the hands team??? LOL

Debatable.This guy's wife is mentioned in every thread he's ever in. She overshadows him. He's not a sleeper. He's dead.

Actually i don't want to be mean to him because he seems pretty good to her and vice versa so i think that is cool but he has had some difficult times on the field and hopefully things will turn aruond for him so that he can remain a paid player and support his child and have a happy household and not resort to wiener texting. I guess in the end compared to John Edwards II favre he is a pretty decent guy and i should not have disrespected him under the Golden Rule set forth by the Code of my man man Hammurabi.

She can support the family. She has probably made more money than him by servicing Hef.

thats sort of amean thing to say because at least she has cleaned up her act and got off of the drugs and is a mom who is clean and who has a good family man husband even if he does have hands that are a lot like pieces of granite (which is one of the hardest rocks out there) so in the end I supporT what they are doing iwht thier lives and retract my earlier rotten statements about Hank.

use a comma man!
 
haha Hank Baskett..........you don't get points for special teams.

Greg Lewis is more of a sleeper in my opinion.

 
Hey he is owned in 2 keeper leagues that I'm in (although these have large rosters).

He was crap with Indy, but showed promise with the Eagles and Chilly mentioned him by name as someone to handle deep routes yesterday in an interview. And he does have a very hot wife

you are right because I'm pretty bad at typing and grammar.
 
Even iF no one else wil i stand behind Hank The Kendra Family Man Baskett and bet that he'llbe proving you wrong by week 10.

 
pretty amazing that one person can get this much hate

I think it's short sighted to write him off. Stranger things have certainly happened. Not like he's never shown any talent what so ever. There was a time when he was in philly the 1st time where people certainly had high hopes for him. He's capable if he can develop consistency.

Something no one in fantasy pays attention to, but he Must have MAD skills at tackling on special teams to explain his extended career?
