Which WW WR to Wrap up? (1 Viewer)

Not all will be available in all leagues (and in some perhaps only 1 or even none will be), but these are the guys that appear to have he biggest bump in value this week at WR. Who do you think will get the most points for the rest of this season?

My choice is Maclin -- he will have the opportunity to start in Philly, and they are primarily a passing team. McNabb will find him regularly, even thought they spread the ball around. Not the other 3 choices are bad! Austin may start in Dallas if the team has the guts to start him over Williams, and he'd do well there if he did. Collie may continue to start in Indy when Gonzalez returns, and he's a slot guy while Gonzo plays outside. But Nicks may end up being the best of all, although he's in a WRBC right now. He's at least the 3rd best WR on the team, and may end up as #2 soon.

I have a WW claim in for Collie, Austin and Royal. I have the last claim, so I doubt I will get one of these guys. This is why I have a hard time upgrading every year. I guess it's a good thing in a way.

 
I'm torn btwn Maclin and Collie... Collie has the stats I look for in an emerging WR... targets continue to increase, catches everything thrown at him... and probably won't lay a goose egg (like Garcon did this week). Austin certainly has the opportunity to step into a lead role as aside from Witten DAL has NOTHING.. but the situation isn't great as the offense is struggling and has no consistency... they apparently had to keep Witten in to block this past weekend (never a good sign for a passing team)...

Drafted Maclin after reading all about how big a stud he was in college and how he's a great deep threat (and McNabb likes to go deep)... of course cut him when he posted goose eggs and wasn't starting... but grabbed him again when he went off this week and looks to possibly be taking Curtis' spot in the slot (hoping for a Curtis trade--but who would be dumb enough to take on that contract for an injuried player?)

Royal has the skills--saw him a lot last year. However I don't trust Orton or DEN passing O... the fact he was non-existant till this week makes me think he'll disappear again.

I like Nicks in dynast leagues. Has the end zone in sight every game. Macllin looks good but Austin may be the best bet to produce this year. IMO if Roy comes back, it will actually take coverage to roy and Austin should produce

 
Collie and Austin do not play this week - they may be a little easier to acquire as a lot of owners are in WIN NOW mode.

 
I'd like to hear more opinions on this. I'm thinking I like Nicks over Collie/Austin/Maclin. I believe he's going to supplant Manningham and if so, would have greater value going forward simply because I think he'll be more consistent.

I'm curious about people's views of Collie as well. I doubt he'll be starting over Garcon when Garcon has been just as affective and reliable (if not moreso) since AGonzo's injury.
