Donutrun Jellies Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Just heard on Holmgren's press conference that both Darrell and Engram are OUT this Sunday against the Rams. The starters will be Jurevicius & Warrick with DJ Hackett in the slot. Jurevicius is probably the only safe play of the group, however, I predict Hackett to be the guy to make a few big plays and get a TD and possibly near 100 yards. Having seen this posted by THE Seattle Homer, I'm left to find a replacement for DJax in my lineup ... I have trade offers out there, but can't count on anything coming through. I have Lelie of Den vs Was on my bench -- who has done NOTHING ... or I could go pick up: McDonald of StL vs Seattle Moulds of Buff vs Miami FJackson of Cle vs Chi BJones of Tenn @ Hou DCarswell of Den vs Was RCaldwell of SD vs Pitt MaJones of Jac vs Cin CWilson of Pitt @ SD Not much there ... but maybe a gem ... who's my guy?

alchico Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I am also being forced to consider putting lelie back in my starting lineup. I'm in a similar situation because of byes. I thought about McDonald but i already have Curtis. Not sure anyone else on your waiver wire is worth it. If Holcomb starts for Buffalo maybe Moulds.

admtahoe Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I would grab McDonald Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PghFan Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I would also go with McDonald against Seattle. The Rams gotta pass to stay in every game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Rugby Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I just grabbed Jerv. McDonald was available, but I already am playing Curtis. Hope he fills in well. My only consistant reciever is out again (same thing happened last year with Moss). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pzarvell Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Lelie is your guy. THIS is his week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boat_hacked Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 From your listing I'd take McDonald. Don't know if C. Henry (Cinn) is available. TJ Housh is listed as Questionable and he's starting to get looks as the #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabearsstillsuck Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 McDonald the best pickup, but I'd start the dude named Ashley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerv becomes the No. 1 WR, and although Seattle will probably give Alexander plenty of carries, I don't think they have a good enough defense to play a ball control game with the Rams. For those looking for a TE to spot start, this is probably a good week to get Jeramey Stevens in your lineup as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donutrun Jellies Posted October 6, 2005 Author Share Posted October 6, 2005 Lelie is your guy. THIS is his week. 1046381[/snapback] Here's Hoping!! That's where I'm at right now ... a deal might go through, but deadline for effectiveness for the weekend is fast approaching -- and I'm still mulling a pickup of a waiver wire wonder wannabee ...

wildbluefan Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Might roll dice on Brandon Jones, Mc Nair has been chucking the ball quite a bit lately ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down The Middle Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 So is it 100% that DJac will not play or should we watch what is happening on Saturday? Gotta point towards McDonald. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Rugby Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 So is it 100% that DJac will not play or should we watch what is happening on Saturday? 1046725[/snapback] He is out according to yesturday's news conference (thanks for still not getting it CBS Sportsline ).

Oh well - that is why this message board is popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admtahoe Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Even the huddle hasn't updated - I can understand missing a player like doug jolley or something, but DJac is in the top 5 WR this season. Oh well - that is why this message board is popular. 1046742[/snapback] He's actually more like 7th, but who's counting, 7th in yardage and 13th in TD's. But I always say its not about the receiver, its about the QB delivering the ball to the receiver. Look at Moss for example. The person that made him great was C. Pep. As Bad as Collins is, Moss will never have the numbers he use to. So, I believe Hass can and will make legit receivers out of Jurv and Stevens. Even though Jurv is listed as a 3 or 4 receiver, he wouldn't be in the NFL if he wasn't capable. Just imagine what Jackson's numbers could be if Alexander didn't get the ball 100 times a game.

Tally Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 I picked up Jurvicious, if he's available grab him if not Mcdonald would be my 2nd choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
