Laverneus Coles (1 Viewer)

[Isotopes]

Coles' production over the first two weeks of the season can't be overlooked. He seems to be fully healed from the toe injury and plays on a team that will likely be playing from behind most of the year. Pennington sure looks like he is throwing rainbows out there, but he has been effective.

The question most fantasy owners who drafted Coles now becomes, how do you get him on the field? Personally, I am thinking of starting him over Chad Johnson this week, as the Steelers D should be fired up and CJ has started off kinda slow.

How bout everyone else - who are you benching to get Coles into your lineup?

 

[Qtip Callahan]

I've started him ahead of Rod Smith in a 14 team league both in Week 1 & Week 2, and I don't see that stopping anytime soon.

 

[RamMan]

Housh is banged up and on my bench, so luckly I haven't had to struggle with this one. However, once Housh comes back I'll probably start Coles over S. Moss until Moss starts showing something more than what he has to this point.

[FatRader]

M. Muhammad, M. Jones, and B. Edwards

 

[beavers]

I have Holt, Mason, Coles, and Evans.

I am not sure who I am starting... Definitely Holt and Coles....

I have to decide between Mason, Maroney, Rhodes for the flex...

 

[conan2]

Steve Smith....

Steve Smith....

Never bench your studs, guy.

 

[The Jerminator]

Over Jamal Lewis at Flex.

 

[swirvenirvin]

Steve Smith and Lee Evans in one league

And Lee Evans in the other

Lee Evans can rot in hell

Drafted Driver, Chambers, Coles and Mason this year - has to be the most solid WR core I've ever had. Started the season with Driver and Chambers, and haven't brought myself to bench either for Coles. I'm thinking of trading Coles off while he's hot to bolster my running backs.

Why not sit Chambers until he proves worthy of a roster spot? The way Daunte is playing, I wouldn't hesitate to insert Coles into your lineup.

I agree. Chambers could certainly light it up if Daunte gets his feet under him, but I'd ride the hot hand here.

 

[Keys Myaths]

Am I the only one trying to trade the guy?

Yeah, it's magical, but do you really think he's going to go for 1600/8 this year?

I wouldnt have thought the same about a lot of guys. Its always some marginally talented would-be malcontent that comes up with stuff like this. I still can't figure out why we have 5'9 guys getting 10 catches per week and no one can stop em, but I'm all for it.

[lord_helmet]

I really can't figure out who to start between Ward, Walker, A.Bryant & Coles.. Guess I'll just continue to play the match-ups and start the wrong guys every week

Oh and I also have Housh lurking on my bench, guess its a good problem to have tho

 

[sandlotshrink]

I can only start 2 out of this group so......

Coles @ Buffalo

Stallworth @ SF

Chambers vs. Tenn

Holt @ AZ

am leaning toward Holt and Stallworth this week.

 

[jpeace121]

I have CJ, Driver, Coles, Roy Williams, and A Bryant. Coles has been on my bench the first two weeks, but with the matchups this weekend, and Coles hot hand, I'm about 85% sure I'm going with Driver and Coles this week.

 

[purestrength]

For me, it's Thomas Jones and Joseph Addai as a flex. My main two WRs on this team are Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne.

don't you hate it when you sit the hot hand for two weeks? i did the same thing...i plan on starting coles so if history repeats itself, he'll have 2 catches for 23 yards...

 

[moneyman]

sitting Muhammad, M Jones, and Williamson to start Coles this week. Hoping he keeps up the magic.

 

[John Maddens Lunchbox]

You'd have to be in a 1 WR only league to not be starting him in the first place

I hope youre not serious. Chambers is definately worth a roster spot.The Phins have played 2 good defenses so far, and Chambers had 59yds against PIT and 55 and a TD against Buffalo. Hes still 3rd in the NFL in targets (he has 5 fewer catches than Coles at this point and one more target...thats more indicative of CPeps play than Chambers'), and this weeks matchup against Tennessee looks pretty good. If he doesnt produce THIS week, maybe it would be time to bench Chambers, but this is NOT the week for him to ride pine.In start 3WR leagues, I dont see too many people having 3 better options than Chambers against Tennessee

You are right...I wasn't trying to insinuate that you should Drop Chambers...only that he should be benched for Coles until he proves worthy of a starting gig.

 

[staggerlee]

With Boldin, Burress, Coles, Bryant, and Matt Jones, I'm having a hard time picking which two starters each week.

 

[GATOR HATER]

Man it is tuff for me. I also have Cotchery, D.Jackson, Driver and Jennings in a keeper league. It doesn't make a difference who I bench, they all have been producing.

 

[dudaman]

I REALLY want to start Bryant, but LC is making it very hard to do so. No complaints, though.

 

[dfwboiler]

I'm starting Driver and Chambers over him still...

I may start playing matchups though.

Yeah, its just that I had to start him twice already and nothing, I think I dropped him early in the one league I had him and ended up getting burned by him later in the year when someone else picked him up

How the hell is this name pronounced "LA VERN EE US"?

What was the question?...

 

[ipljeff]

This week Droughns at the flex, easy choice he's questionable and playing Baltimore. Next week I'm leaning toward sitting Roy Williams for Coles.

 

[Frank Black]

I've started him ahead of Rod Smith in a 14 team league both in Week 1 & Week 2, and I don't see that stopping anytime soon.

Same here, for week 2, and going forward until proven I should do otherwise.
