What's up with Welker's ranking this week? (1 Viewer)

[PR Sparty]

I know he's made comments re: his lack of being 100%, but he's still playing right? 35th ranked WR? 84th flex option? Ya gotta figure there's gonna be some point scored in this game.

With Edelman looking like he may be out I think Welker gets a big bump up.

On Sirius it was reported that his doctor stated that he was no more of a risk to injure his knee than any other healthy player.

I think his ranking probably just reflects that he is a risky play; until you see him perform well in a real game situation for 4 quarters, there are probably safer plays out there.

Just my two cents; I have not seen the rankings.

It's Welker... Is this PPR or something?

The lingering effects from Welker's injury is really something that's been beaten to death this offseason. Until he gets on the field, nobody really knows including those that make projections. As a Pats fan, I'm equally as interested to see what impact the Hernandez/Gronk duo has on Welker's overall production as the season goes on. Welker's never been a big TD guy, but the Pats all of a sudden have 3 guys (Moss, Hernandez, Gronk) that seem more than capable of being elite redzone targets. There are more mouths to feed this year.
