Bedoman Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I picked up Copper because I am having WR issues and need a win and I'm in the playoff's.... I read that he practiced fully today and will start next to Joe Horn on Sunday as long as he continues to fully practice. I know Devery will be part of the offense also but with Colston most likely out this week wouldn't that benefit Copper more than Henderson? By the way my other options for WR next to Roy Williams are Mushin Muhammed Derrick Mason Drew Bennett You can see my issues this week for sure..... It would be Copper instead of one of these guys..... Please Help with your opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfdigger Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Henderson has had the hot hand 2 of the last 3 weeks. I'd go with Henderson, but if the Saints Wr situation scares you then I see Muhamed having a nice game too!

joeyd524@msn.com Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 f.football is a guess and im guessing henderson,copper is still hobbled by a sprained ankle,he should play but he's not 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baddfish2 Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I'm "guessing" Henderson too, and may personally start him over Mark Clayton based on my own "guess".

DFox Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Copper's hurt worse than Colston. Henderson has the better upside here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedoman Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 Can someone tell me why Copper practiced fully yesterday then and Colston was excercising in a pool??? Am I missing something??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelhead Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I'm a Colston owner and picked Henderson. You should do the same. Copper's ankle isnt' 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysight Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Terrance Copper (questionable, ankle) practiced fully Wednesday. Impact: Ernie Conwell was also back at practice for the first time since undergoing surgery. Copper will likely start this week against the Falcons if Marques Colston is out and remains a fine one-week solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman1977 Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I live in New Orleans and Copper is definately starting.This is best for he and Henderson. Henderson is at his best as the slot wr, He is super fast but dumb as dirt,he doesn't know the playbook well and doesn't run good routes , decent corners can shut him down on all but deep or slant routes,thus he needs to stay away from the 2 starting corners, as slot he draws safeties,linebackers and rusty nickel backs, Copper is the opposite,runs very good routes ,above average hands(to catch not to carry)but only average speed.Both should fair well vs the shaky ATL Defense, To sum it up, I look for colston to have more catches 4-8 60-90 yds henderson 3-6 catches 80-100 yds (scores only on deep or trick plays) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the two Copper appears to be the worst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedoman Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 From KFFL Saints | Copper practices Thursday Thu, 23 Nov 2006 19:34:09 -0800 New Orleans Saints WR Terrance Copper (knee) practiced Thursday, Nov. 23, and is questionable for Week 12. I think they will rest Colston and both Copper and Henderson will play big parts..... Crazysight already posted the source in this link it was from Rotoworld yesterday after Copper practiced FULLY The one above is from today, Copper practiced fully again, sort of thinking he is not worse than Colston as the huddle is saying.... Iceman....... I assume you meant Copper 4-8 catches 60 -90 yards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman1977 Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 yes, Copper for a short T.D. Henderson maybe a long one(Falcons play hard vs the Saints) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedoman Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 This has turned intop a nice thread of opinions and I thank everyone for all of them..... But..... My real question is if Colston sits out Sunday is Copper a better start than Muhammed Mason Bennett Please give me a few opinions on this......sure could use them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MERLINS Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 Copper has sore knee while colston is ankle, 2 different injuries, I believe Copper will play but how effective? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhamp Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 apparently, there's no question. Copper IS playing: Copper (ankle) was removed from the injury list on Thursday, the Times-Picayune reports. He had been listed as questionable.

Dingoes Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 TSN reports: According to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, Copper (knee) was removed from the injury report Thursday. and The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports Colston (ankle) practiced fully Thursday but remains questionable. Colston says the ankle is better, but he isn't sure if he'll play Sunday. So my guess is Copper will probably play and Colston won't.

I assumed that Copper would start for Colston and Henderson would start for Horn... however, I've been reading that Copper is in the doghouse after his two fumbles the last two weeks, and that Henderson is listed as Colston's back up (read that backup part on fantasyguru.com) So... will Copper start if Colston is out?
