[DawnBTVS]

TE Owen Daniels out of Houston

 

[Sigmund Bloom]

Samkon Gado

 

[Man in the yellow hat]

Samkon Gado

Anyone have word on why Gado was getting the carries? Lundy just ineffective? Or is was Gado just better agains that type of defense? Just curious.

 

[One]

Ladell Betts if he's still around.

 

[Slum Lord]

TE Owen Daniels out of Houston

Nope your about 3 weeks late on that one.

 

[Rusty Syringes]

Patrick Crayton

Tyree?

Caldwell

Copper

Floyd

McMullen

 

[FunkyPlutos]

Bethel Johnson, even though McMullen got the TDs, I think Bethel will see a ton of increased playing time.

 

[PsychoMan]

Mark Bradley

at least while berrian is out ... when he's back, i'm not sure who will see the field more between bradley & rasheed davis

 

[aggie_dave]

It could be a bust, but maybe take a flier on Duckett?? I would guess his carry number will increase with Portis out.

 

[Avery]

Sinorice Moss practiced this week (more and more each day, according to Coughlin) and didn't have any setbacks to his 3 month quad injury.

With Toomer out and Carter and Tyree not lighting the world on fire, Moss may get some playing time down the stretch.

just throwing this out there - why would berrian automatically get his job back anyway? he had 4 good games to start the year but since then has been basically mediocre.

Right now Berrian is the way more polished receiver. Although he has not been used in such a manner often this year, Berrian is much more capable of going over the middle and running various routes at this point. Bradley has the ability to be very special and probably better then Berrian in the long term but right now a healthy Berrian is the #2 while Bradley would be a great burner in 3 WR sets.

Floys is definitely intriguing. I still haven't figured out that passing game.

Over the last three weeks, the targets have been fairly evenly distributed between Gates, LT, Floyd, McCardell and Parker, but the problem with Floyd will likely be consistency.

LT's too strong in the red zone, and Gates still leads all SD receivers in targets. But, Floys is probably as viable a target as either Parker or McCardell.

Eric Parker was hurt early in this game. Remember that when looking at Floyd's latest stats.

 

[Marc Levin]

How badly is he injured? On the blogger it was a "neck injury" - Floyd could be very valuable if Parker's out for an extended period of time.

He filled Parker's shoes very well - 4 FDs and a TD, three of those FDs came on third down.

 

[J R]

I was thinking of Duckett as well. I'm interested in a TD-heavy league, but I have no idea how the carries are supposed to shake out.

Reche Caldwell seem to be Brady's favorite target over the last couple of weeks.

 

[Marc Levin]

Reche Caldwell seem to be Brady's favorite target over the last couple of weeks.

Over the last 3 weeks, he has 21 targets for 16 catches - turned those catches into 11 FDs and 2 TDs.If Caldwell's on your WW, he's probably a good investment. A few weeks ago, I thought it would either be Gabriel who would emerge as Brady's favorite target or that the Pats' propensity to spread the ball around would hurt Caldwell.Those fears have not materialized.

You should look at each week vs just looking at the last 3 weeks.Week 8 7-84-1Week 9 1-21Week 10 9-90-1Maybe it does hurt him on certain weeks? Not that he is not a good investment but he may not be the most consistent WR out there.

I looked at him this weekend as a #3 WW pick up, but Brady just drives me nuts trying to make a play for this WR or that.

Bills Defense.

They could've been dropped last week as they were playing the Colts...this week they got the Texans.

eta

Chiefs Defense at home vs Oakland seems juicy as well...
