mamaboy Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 So love alittle debate over this, one point per reception, and one point every 10 yards. My rankings: Domanick: caught around 70 balls last year, and was as good as any back the last 6 games Edge: very consistent, and seems to be getting better every year, negative Manning Willis: If he only caught more balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tboogs Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I love DD and I think Houston is a team on the rise...Defenses will not be able to put 8 in a box against them (D.Carr & AJ will prevent that..) DD will have a monster year catching balls out of the backfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearcatGreg Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I'm also a big DD fan. Points per reception gives him an advantage over Edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamaboy Posted August 4, 2005 Author Share Posted August 4, 2005 I agree, can't believe that Edge and McGahee are rated higher then him. I have even seen Deuce and Tatum Bell rated higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tboogs Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 That's crazy...There are just too many options in Indy (Harrison, Wayne , Stokely and Clark)...I like DD at that spot...after DD & Andre Johnson who else do they have???? Is there a true #2 WR in Houston? (DD will EAT...trus' me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canman1104 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I like Edge here. Yes, lots of options in Indy but with a passing game like Indy has its really opens up the run game for Edge to have a great year. Edge only has 5 months left on his 1 year franchise player tag. He will look to showcase his skills for other teams. Edge wants big money and out of Indy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamaboy Posted August 4, 2005 Author Share Posted August 4, 2005 I just don't see Edge having a better year then last year though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chires Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Because of the 1 pnt for receptions I would go with DD although Edge isn't too far behind and I suspect he will get around 12+ TD's this year instead of 9 like last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUBJPO01 Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 If Edge is there, then you've gotta take him there b/c he's a double threat. He does not get snaked at the goal line and he will get 50 recepts. I know the same case can be made for DD but, Edge is much more proven and on a much more powerful Offense. I also don't think all 3 WR's in Indy will get 10 TD's this year. please see mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrenaline Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 I'd take Edge here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHook Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Dom Davis over Edge???? You are out of your mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimm74 Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Dom Davis over Edge???? You are out of your mind. 911372[/snapback] I do not think so home boy. I would and will go DD as well with my number #5. I would consider Willis over Edge as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantsfan Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Edge: 334 carries, 1548 yds, 4.6 avg, 51 catches, 483 yds, 9 total TD's DD: 302 carries, 1188 yds, 3.9 yds, 68 catches, 588 yds, 14 total TD's SO to me any gains DD gets in receiving, and they aren't huge gains, he loses in rushing yards. To me the question is total TD's. I would be shocked if Edge isn't in the 12 or 13 range this year. Last year was a crazy year with Manning throwing all over the field. I don't think anyone thinks he will put up those huge #'s again. Of course he'll still be super, but will he throw as many TD's inside the 5? I say no hence Edge adds 3 or 4 TD's I believe. So it is close but to me I go Edge. He is much more proven and plays on a much higher powered O. Until Houston gets an even decent # 2 WR I think their O won't be as good as it can be.

And that's coming from a huge DD backer. I'd give Edge the slight "edge" over DD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwatz Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Interesting.... Because I have been getting responses from people that like Edge, but then McGahee over DD?????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhoops Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I'm fighting with the same issues. Thing that scares me is that his team is not as good. Same goes for McGahee, but he has a better D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Man Inc Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Because of the 1 pnt for receptions I would go with DD although Edge isn't too far behind and I suspect he will get around 12+ TD's this year instead of 9 like last year. 911156[/snapback] I have basically the same problem. Without the points for receptions, is Edge a no-brainer over DD? Who is a better pick between Willis and DD (without the reception points)? 1/10 yards rushing/receiving, all TDs = 6 points no reception poins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
