I know there are threads touting these guys. Are either of these guys worth picking up, on most everyones WW. It seems like they are becoming, if not already, their teams #1 WR option. Will the increased workload/production continue??? WHO HAS A CRYSTAL BALL????? GIVE US SOME CONCRETE REASONS TO GO GET ONE OF THESE GUYS!!!!!

For this year, I would have higher hopes for WR Roydell Williams(Ten), than WR Bowe(KC). His QB situation is better, the team overall is better, and there is a possibility he is developing into the #1 WR target.

While I think WR Bowe(KC) is the better WR, he is not in a good situation. They are a run-first team with average QB play, and the OL seems to be a mess.

For redraft, I would go Williams(Ten). For dynasty, depending on whether I needed immediate help or not, I would take Bowe(KC).

 
I recently picked up Bowe as my WR4 and WR5 in two different leagues. I like his upside. He may not be the first or second options on his team, but I choose to look on the brighter side of things with regards to this. I have a feeling KC will be playing from behind quite a bit, and teams will be looking to stop LJ and Gonzalez in the Red Zone allowing Bowe some scoring chances.

 
Not to turn this into ACF, but would you drop Demetrius for Roydell Williams? Seems like a decent gamble since Demetrius is really WR3 for his team when Clayton is back.

No... Tenn WRs are a mess right now... Brandon Jones owners know this.

Its is redraft, looking for bench WR, to possibly spot start at times. I think Bowe is the better talent, I just wonder if KC will start utilyzing this guy, especially with kennison hurt.

It will be LJ first, Gonzo 2nd, and then Bowe. With their OL problems, I don't see a high upside for him this year. In Tenn, VY is the man. Their OL is sound, and their running game is effective but not spectacular. If Williams becomes VY go-to guy, he will outperform Bowe even though Bowe is more talented.

No Titan WR will catch 80 balls!Maybe 50-60 receptions and 5 TD's

 
Bowe and it aint close redraft and especially dynasty. Last week was the real week to snag Bowe, Grats if hes still there , he should finish the season as a solid WR3

 
Bowe looks like the real deal. He stole Tony G's TD pass! And I get the feeling that that might be a common phrase uttered by Gonzalez owners in the future.

The KC offense is pretty pathetic. If D BO is the real deal, then they need to get him the ball.

"Chicago but that was on a broken route by rookie wide receiver Dwayne Bowe who cut in front of tight end Tony Gonzalez in the end zone and effectively stole the pass from him."Yea, that caught my eye too. Shows aggressiveness and a wanting to succeed. If he were available in any of my leagues I would grab him.

Yeah cause Jones is worthless and has nt produce anything in three years . Williams is slowly nut surely taking the #1 Wr spot in Tenn , Jones key drop last game wont do anything to help him .
 
Grabbed Roydell Williams from free agency the other day in a 16-team dynasty league for the minimum salary, Bowe was long gone in the rookie draft. That one sideline catch he had Sunday was pretty impressive and he has the same number of redzone targets as both Jones and Scaife. Definite sleeper material.

 
Does Roydell Williams even start? Every depth chart I've seen has Moulds / Jones. Do they use alot of 3 wide? I honestly am not familiar with there offense.

 
Hope you guys r right about D BO, not alot of targets so far, but Kennison is hurt, I stashed D BO on my bench #4 WR, thanks for the opinions!!

 
Williams looks like a playa.

Bowe was drafted with expectastions of being a top guy in this league.

Both are nice for a dynasty. Bowe was drafted in every rookie draft. Williams in none I was in. I picked him up in a few dynasty leagues. He clearly looks like the guy who will emerge as VY #1 this season.

 
Williams is a bad add in anything but the deepest best-ball leagues.
As a Saints fan, I would say that's not an accurate statement for this week against the Saints. He's a great spot starter if your other WRs have tough matchups. I would bet that he tops 100 yards and gets a TD.
I'd take that bet. Since the beginning of 2006 (18 games) the Titans have had 4 instances of a receiver having 100 yards. Drew Bennett did it 3 times. Brandon Jones did it once.Despite the "early season fantasy football hope" of finding a breakout receiver in Roydell Williams, the odds are dramatically stacked against you.

Wrong WR. I dropped Demitrius for Bowe this week. If D is in your line-up already, better luck next year. If he is on your bench and you are waiting for him to emerge, then you will be better served by waiting for Bowe as he has more upside. Bowe will be in an offense that need to play catch up and D is in one that is grinding out the clock.

Wow. Talk about different leagues. Somebody in my league last week dumped Bowe FOR Demetrius. I just grabbed him at the #7 spot in Waiver priority this week to be my WR4/5 in a league where we start 2. People are really concerned about KC's offence.Edited because I can't spell.
