Jacoby Ford (2 Viewers)

[rawdog]

He's blown up 3 of the last 6 games and getting about 20% of the love Dez Bryant was getting. Is it b/c it's the Raiders and Jason Campbell is his QB? Colts feel like a good matchup this week, top corner is out, can Jacoby Ford help put some teams over the top this week? Or is Jacoby Ford a pure gadget guy?

Agree with OP

I'm starting him this week over Miles Austin and Percy Harvin.

I love his big play abilitiy. Leagues that include yardage, he is a great start he has scored touchdowns Receiving, Rushing and Returning, hes got a good matchup vs the Colts, his ceiling is very high but downside is well 2 catches 45 yards and 50 Return yards, so he is a risk still.

But my gut says he will be a good play this week

you are really comparing him to Bryant -

two different skillsets, two different body types . . .

is Ford even starting yet??

Last week on the first play of the game, Ford got his number called and he ran a reverse 76 yards for a TD. He's not a gadget. He's a weapon. They will continue to try to get it into his hands and I believe in his big play ability. I guess the best advice I could offer is if you feel you are better than your opponent already, then you should consider more conservative target hounds. But if you want the home run with risk/reward, then Ford is the play.

Might be bumping him up over DJax now due to the blizzard expected in Philly.

Kelvin Hayden did not make trip for Indy. Ford now being covered by Justin Trynon.

i think he might have a good week but if they cover him really good he probably wont so its a toss up and i wish you all the best of luck in the spirit of the holiday and felize navidad

Dude is an animal.

I guess if your league for some reason gives return points to both the DST AND the player.. then yes, great start today.
