TB WRs with Griese at the Helm (1 Viewer)

[tombonneau]

Checking out my slim WW, and at this point the most value that seems to be out there is the Bucs WR2. Per FBG:

Ike Hilliard caught every ball that came his way last week (6 for 6/45/1), while Antonio Bryant was a valuable 3rd option (8 targets for 3/43/1).

Bryant had more targets and had the higher YPC, but Hilliard still got 6 balls. Does Hillaird still represent better value in PPR? Does Griese favor one WR over the other?Is Bryant the true starting WR2? Before last week's game there was speculation Hilliard wouldn't even be active, then he pulls down 6 balls?Finally, I'm reading rumblings Gruden isn't happy with Galloway? Could he possibly be passing the torch to Bryant in this offense?Any TB homers can chime in with input to these questions or more?I'm leaning toward grabbing Bryant in hopes he can post good numbers and maybe even be Griese's top target? Hilliard is more of a known commodity; he'll be there in PPR getting you 6 catches at 7 yards per? But is that actually better with Griese at QB? In the preseason game vs. the Pats I don't think he threw a pass more than 10 yards ...

I know the Bucs are a boring offense, but surely there are some homers who can be moved to discuss their team.

Paging, Capella ...

I'm no Capella, but I remember Griese moving that offense in 2004/2005, and finding Galloway in the end zone. They hooked up for nine TDs in 14 games. I like Bryant's potential. Griese presided over Michael Clayton's breakout rookie year of 2004. Clayton was a healthy scratch, but I think Bryant can benefit in the same way since he's athletic and plays big - even though he's not as big as Clayton.

On the whole, I'm much more excited about the Bucs passing game possibilities with Griese than Garcia. In fact, other than the Pats, every team that lost their starter in week should actually see an improvement in the efficiency of the passing attack.
