Harrison went about 9 picks before I got Wayne in the 3rd round. But I still would have taken Wayne over Harrison.
Shame on you
I agree. Wayne may have some better weeks, but over the long haul Harrison seems to me to be the guy that will consistently score solidly for you. That is a tremendous thing for a WR.
Not true, based off of '06.In a premium article by Dodds, he breaks down WR consistency. I won't go in to detail, but both Harrison and Wayne are near the top of the list (neither #1). Harrison is a little higher, but it's a minimal difference. 1 more game with 75+ yards and 1 more game ranked in the top 30 WR for the week. Wayne had 1 more game with both 75 yards and a TD.I like Wayne more in '07 also.
Go back a year. If you're going to base everything off of just last year then by all means take Wayne. Course, I did that after '04 and wasn't very thrilled with the results.
I get the bad '05, but it doesn't mean as much to me. Wayne was consistent last year, and more consistent than Harrison thru the playoffs. He's getting plenty of targets in the preseason also.I have TO ranked higher also...based off of '06 and his '07 situation.I like Wayne's floor more than Harrison's.

Those guys were so good last year that I had the #1 pick, was an idiot and DIDN'T take LT...and still won the league. So I'm an advocate of your theory, expecially since you'll make a better choice at #1 than I did.laughinboy_2000 said:Im drafting from the #1 spot in a 10-team redraft PPR league and am thinking about taking both at the 2/3 turn. I just don't think the Colts defense will be very good this year, and they will be in some shootouts. Having LT, Marvin, and Wayne with my three picks would be sick!
As long as Harrison always lines up on the right, and Peyton Manning remains right-handed, your analysis has merit.Otis said:
Wayne over Harrison is the ***OFFICIAL*** Shark Move.DaTruth said:
This is even more true with a rookie left tackle as PM knows for a fact that he has less time to throw on every play. Marvin can get separation on short and intermediate routes faster than it will take for PM to look off Marvin and hit Wayne in the face of the rush from the RDE.
I didn't know that; thanks. I don't keep up with the minutae of each situation, but that makes sense. When in doubt, Peyton knows where Marvin will be and throws it there.
I remember the interview after the Superbowl last year. PM was ticked that he didn't set any records with Harrison and would have gladly traded the win for a few of them.
Peyton Manning would have rather set more records with Harrison than to have won the Super Bowl?
I agree and I would do the same.DaTruth said:
Yeah thanks, but i took the full time to make that pick. I was so hesitant to select Wayne, but i decided to pull the trigger and we'll see how things pan out. Like everyone else said, even if Harrison is the guy this year, it won't be a steep dropoff. Let's see how this plays out. DaTruth

I attribute it to a dynamic offense.
So why do Harrison's numbers go WAY up in the regular season?
The regular season lacks playoff intensity, and offers some softer matchups.Wayne's numbers also declined during the playoffs.Marvin caught 15 for 193 and 0 scores (12.9 ypc), Wayne 17 for 216 and 1 score (12.7 ypc).
Wayne had 2 TDs...thus 4 pts/game more than Marvin.The comment about the playoff intensity what I was getting to...this season will be more intense than any previous for the Colts. Tough schedule, reigning champs, etc. It seems to me that Marvin has a tougher time in tougher games than Reggie. Look back at the playoffs the last 4 years. Marvin has basically done nothing. Reggie at least has had several big games.
