Dwayne Bowe, Chiefs –
You'd think with no other playmakers on the active roster defenses would be able to stop, or at least slow, Bowe. They haven't so far.

Pierre Garçon, Colts –
Reggie Wayne, Colts –
Curtis Painter throws to Wayne almost out of obligation; he throws to Garçon when he wants a big play.

Victor Cruz, Giants –
Mario Manningham may still technically be the starter, but Cruz has been Eli Manning's big-play guy. It wasn't just the acrobatic long touchdown catch, either; Cruz was the target on Eli's game-ending INT--and he dang near came up with that one one-handed as well.

Mike Williams, Buccaneers –
Tampa Bay couldn't run on the Niners, so you thought maybe this would be a chance for Williams to run some numbers; he couldn't even make a garbage-time contribution.

Michael Crabtree, 49ers –
With Josh Morgan done for the season Crabtree becomes the 49ers' WR1 by default. Now if he can just get Alex Smith to stop focusing on the tight ends...

Lance Moore, Saints –
Jimmy Graham has taken the top off the passing game numbers, leaving little for the wideouts to fight over. And Moore isn't even first in that pecking order.

Dane Sanzenbacher, Bears –
Mike Martz has found his Mike Furrey.

Darius Heyward-Bey, Raiders –
He's always had the speed, and lately he's been catching the ball. In an offense that loves to take shots downfield, that's a deadly combination.

Doug Baldwin, Seahawks –
The undrafted rookie zoomed past Golden Tate on the depth chart and is now making a play for Sidney Rice's looks.

Denarius Moore, Raiders –
Oakland said they wanted to get him the ball, but apparently that message never got relayed to Jason Campbell, who spent a lot more time and attention on Darius Heyward-Bey.

Where is Jason Avant? I would think he is in the top 70, at least in PPR leagues.

2V- Would you trade Matt Forte (or McFadden) plus Reggie Wayne for Cam Newton, MJD, and Miles Austin in a PPR league? Currently stuck with Hasselbeck/Freeman/Tebow. I draft Peyton Manning, which hasn't exactly worked as planned.

Would you drop Denarius Moore and pick up Doug Baldwin at this point? He is still on waivers because of his bye this week...who is the safer guy to have as a backup option long term?

Posted Oct 12, 2011 11:27am EDT

OK, I need a running back and am thinking about giving up 1 of my 4 receivers - v jac, m wallace, b marshall or v cruz. of course, I think v jac and m wallace are not touchable...but what about the other 2? which one would you "project" will do better the rest of season? is it as simple as looking at the list above?

AS, Little was in the mix for a spot in the bottom end of the list. But he's already been getting starter snaps (about 2/3 of Cleveland's snaps, 10/game more than any other Browns WR and 20+/game more than most of them) and hasn't done much with them, so the news that he's now officially a starter isn't going to automatically pump up his numbers. The Browns' offense is still dink-and-dunk, Hillis and TEs. Flashing a little something could have him crack the list, and there's dynasty league potential if the Browns figure out how to use him, but I see more upside in the other guys on the list right now.

No love for Greg Little?

2v thanks for reply. Maybe I am just higher on DHB than others but I would MUCH rather have him than other guys (toss in an Early Doucet) mentioned. Guess we will see. I am playing him in all 3 of my leagues this week so we will see...love the 3rd year breakout wideouts!

uconnscott- I'd be pretty damn happy that Heyward Bey is cracking the top 50! HA what a bust-he's a bum

Posted Oct 12, 2011 12:23am EDT

uconnscott, I'm sorry you feel that way. DHB has given us a couple good games, but so has Denarius Moore... and Jacoby Ford before him. I just don't know that I can trust any of them in my lineup. Crabtree has no one other than tight ends looking to take opportunities away from him, and he's getting healthier and more involved each game. Gaffney is one of those undervalued PPR machines that churns out a steady 5-6 catches each week. Crabtree is at the end of the guys I'd feel comfortable with as a WR3; DHB and Gaffney are in the WR4 range. Based on what we can expect from them going forward, I'm pretty comfortable with those rankings.
