CardinalEmpire.com Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I think you mean Buffalo for Holcomb, and I'd take him if that's what you intended to post. Holcomb has lots of weapons there and enough talent to get the ball to them. I can't say the same for the other two. Take Holcomb and the 200 yards, 1 TD each week. Please see mine... http://forums.thehuddle.com/index.php?showtopic=119541 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLP1721 Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 I need a replacement for Bulger... not sure how long he will be out and my backup is Harrington... I can pick up one of these three off waivers... Martin (stl) Brooks (nos) Holcomb (cle) which would u take? 1080065[/snapback] I would take Brooks out of those 3. The saints lost McAllaster which means Brooks will have to pass more he threw for close to 300 yds and a few touchdowns plus he can get you points with his feet. He will have to throw at least 10 more times now with out Deuce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDread Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 The Priority News update on Bulger has him saying he'll miss two games. Those are both home games: vs. Saints Wk 7, and Jags Wk 8. The Rams (Martin) have a bye in Wk 9, so Bulger has 3 wks to heal. If he can return after the bye, then his next action would be @ Seattle Nov. 13th. Holcomb is playing well & does have supporting talent around him. His next two games are @ Raiders & @ Patriots, but Buffalo has a bye in Wk 9 like the Rams. Brooks' next 3 games are @ Rams, vs. Dolphins, vs. Bears (Wk 10 bye) Does your league have an IR option? If you do, then put Bulger on IR and get Holcomb & Brooks. You'd be secure at QB as more info is available on Bulger in the coming weeks. If IR isn't an option and you intend on keeping Bulger, then your only choice is Brooks based on bye weeks alone. Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you will have to roll the dice with Brooks :doah: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDread Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I forgot to mention I have Bulger and I'm looking to my waiver wire for a little help this week too. Some one else to consider... Trent Dilfer His next 3 games are vs. Lions, @ Texans, vs. Titans. He could be a decent fill in while Bulger gets healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolv Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I'd take Dilfer as well. Unfortunately I have Bulger as well. Fortunately Brunell was available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kicker22 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Stick with Martin. 1080720[/snapback] Martin did well against a very stout Def in Indy. Go with Martin and smile. Check out my post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be secure at QB as more info is available on Bulger in the coming weeks. There is no IR option but i can hold up to 3 QBs... so if i drop harrington, i can pick up one guy this week... and one guy next week... i would just have to drop another position which would be no problem... Now the new question... I am only allowed 1 pickup per week... who do i want this week? Aaron Brooks vs STL or Holcomb vs Oakland Im just worried that if i pick holcomb and brooks has a stellar game this week, someone else will grab him off waivers before me next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosGatosEnFuegos Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 When is Garcia due back? You could make your pickup for this week, then swap Harrington for Garcia to cover your week 10 bye if you get stuck in that position. Just brainstorming here. I'm not saying it's the best idea, or even a good idea, just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll go off one week, someone will grab him and start him, and he'll sh*t the bed the next week.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
