Trying to decide what to do with my 5th wide receiver spot. It's a auction, PPR keeper league. I have Dez and Julio as my starters with Cobb as my flex.

Cody Latimer and James Jones on my bench. I know I could pretty much flip a coin and pick up a FA for Jones. Which of these would be better on my squad for a bye week fill or possible keeper:

Nick Toon (NO)
Brandon Lafell (NE)
Jermaine Kearse (Sea)
Martavis Bryant (Pit)
Miles Austin (Cle)
Justin Blackmon (Jax)
Donte Moncrief (Ind)
Da'rick Rogers (Ind)

There's a few more but they all look the same to me

Maybe him. Hard to say right now. I'm not expecting much from James Jones this year.

I'd roll with Rogers' potential upside. Only problem in Indy is there are quite a few WRs to feed.

reports out of saints camp have toon looking good, could be a good looking keeper option with solid potential to do well this year.

12 teams.

I have also heard good things about Nick Toon. I think Brandon Coleman will eventually be the guy to replace Colston though.

I do like Da'rick's upside and i have him in one of my dynasty leagues from last year. Moncrief is a monster though, so i guess it will be whichever one of them steps up first in Indy

What do you guys think about Montavis Bryant in Pit? He might not be a great PPR player but what other big body do they have to throw to?

I would seriously consider Marquess Wilson.

Interesting. Didn't even think about him. No more Earl Bennet and #3 receiver in Chicago.... Very tempting

Chicago's WR3 wasn't valuable last year. Earl Bennett has never been good

Steelers GM Kevin Colbert told me Ben Roethlisberger is in best shape of his career. It shows. Just stroked bomb to Markus Wheaton


quote:

According to CBS Sports, "several Steelers people" say that Wheaton is having a "strong start to camp" and that "his role will increase greatly" in the coming year.

Scott Brown ?@ScottBrown_ESPN
Markus Wheaton catches deep pass from Roethlisberger after getting in between CB William Gay and S Shamarko Thomas.

James C Wexell ?@jimwexell
There's Markus Wheaton with a home run over Brice McClain.

SteelersPage ?@SteelersPage
Markus Wheaton is said to be having the best camp out of anybody. After every practice he is giving everyone more confidence to play #2 WR

There is your answer. Earl Bennett was never good.

Marquess Wilson was an extremely talented player in college. He dropped in the draft in 2013 because of his childish acts at Washington State that ultimately led to him quitting the team.

He's been receiving a lot of praise from coaches and fans.

The OP is looking for a fifth WR. Why not take a waiver on Wilson? He has the talent.

I do like Marcus Wheaton a lot... Unfortunately they had 2 real life Steelers fans at the draft that had a bidding war for him.

Everything I'm reading about Wilson has been good so far. B Marshall has been praising him

Forte is essentially CHI WR3 and Martellus Bennett their WR4

The volume of passes the top 4 pass catchers in CHI will see should not be underestimated. They really don't have room for another fantasy relevant WR unless cutler airs it out 800 times

I don't think he will either, but I want to hold on to him as a keeper. One more concussion from Welker and I'll have a decent PPR bye week wr
