electricrelish Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 It's championship week and none of my TE options are solid in my two PPR leagues. In fact, in one league, my opponent has Dallas Clark who went off for 24.50 points. To win a championship, I believe sometimes you need to make bold moves. I am leaning towards going with either Jerramy Stevens (superb match up against SD, who are averaging 10.6 in a standard league to TE's ) or Heath Miller (OK match up against TEN - 14th worst in fantasy against TE's). Both of these are on the waiver wire. Which TE do you prefer? Heath Miller or Jerramy Stevens? Would you bench Tony Scheffler and Kevin Boss for the any of the two TE's listed above? Remember neither Tony Scheffler (vs. Buffalo) nor Kevin Boss (vs. Carolina) have good match ups on paper and they both have been cold lately. Lineup is below. Any advice is appreciated.

footballzombie Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I like Jerramy Stevens, even though I'm 95% sure I'm gonna roll the dice with SD defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmith379 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 How has Stevens been lately I know earlier in the year he wasn't doing much. I like Miller, but he can be held in a lot to block(screwed me last year) Scheffler really hasn't done much since earlier in the season before he got hurt. I like Boss, he probably has the biggest upside in my opinion but he has been shut out lately. The weather is supposed to stop in NY before game time but be windy. I think the wind favors Boss as Manning will have to go with the shorter routes and maybe he will go back to his better target. I would say it is a toss up between Boss and Stevens but if Stevens has been good lately I think I may play the matchups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Favre4ever Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I like Stevens more than Miller but I like Sheffler the best.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhinsFan13 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 That's a tough call. I believe Miller has a couple of TD's in the last 2-3 weeks. Stevens is a wildcard. He'll have the best chance out of the 4 choices you have given. Roll the dice with Stevens. If he's not there anymore, I say go with Boss. Good luck!

The only reason to go with Stevens is because he's going up against the worst against the TE which is San Diego. Last 3 weeks Week 15 Kevin Boss had 1 catrch for 23 yards against DAL Heath Miller had 3 catches for 26 yards against Baltimore Jerramy Stevens had 2 caches for 27 yards against Atlanta Week 14 Kevin Boss had 1 catch for 5 yards against PHI Heath Miller had 3 catches for 20 yards and 1 TD against DAL Jerramy Stevens had 5 catches for 33 yards against CAR Week 13 Kevin Boss had 3 catches for 45 yards against WAS Heath Miller had 4 catches for 60 yards against NE Jerramy Stevens had 2 catches for 21 yards and 1 TD against NOR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Miller the best. I forgot that TEN gives up quite a bit to TEs and Vanden Bosch and Haynesworth are not playing so Miller will not have to stay in to block as much against that front 4.

baddfish2 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I only play in one TE league, and I'm out in that league now, so my advice should be taken with a grain of salt ... but I'm a Heath Miller fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
