Balzac Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 So here's the question - assuming he isn't 100% for Sunday night's tilt, who is the better replacement in a fantasy lineup . . . James Jones or Jordy Nelson? Last week I would've said Jones but he was blanked on Sunday. Nelson, on the other hand, stepped up and chipped in with appreciable stats when Driver missed significant snaps. Does Nelson slot in for Driver when he's out or is it Jones?

Balzac Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 If DD plays, even if not 100%, I think you play him over the other two. DD is old, so sitting out mid-week is probably typical. Also, I think he's got plenty left in the tank, fwiw. I was of the same mind last week - and then he laid an egg for me b/c he missed half of the snaps.

Big John Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 If he is out expect Nelson to fill in, but I expect DD to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is out expect Nelson to fill in, but I expect DD to play. And expect more drops and drive killing plays from that spare. I'm still going to say James Jones fills in if Driver can't go.

theeohiostate Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Donald Driver (quadricep) has informed coach Mike McCarthy that he will be fine to play on Sunday.Driver has missed consecutive practice the past two days, but that was in the plans all along. There's some risk that his snaps will be limited or that he could aggravate the injury during Sunday's game. Take that into account when considering WR3 options this week.

Balzac Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 yeah - saw that. still lacking confidence in it though because he played last week as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUMbotron Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I stopped betting against Driver two years ago. I got tired of looking dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got tired of looking dumb. no doubt - and precisely why I drafted him. hopefully this isn't the year he falls apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
