franchizetag Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 So the last pick of my draft is Devin Hester. Apparently from his ADP grabbing him as the 149th pick was a bargain while Percy Harvin wasn't drafted. Then I hear nothin but Percy this and Percy that, but, he's still a rookie WR. All the gadget plays they are going to use him for in the first six weeks weeks aren't going to work later on. As far as I'm concerned the Wild Kitty stopped being effective after its second week when teams figured out they ain't gonna throw it. So it's just another running play. If I had 18 spots on my roster you bet your A@# he's on my bench, but since I only have 15 spaces, how would you'll handle this. My gut say's, don't stash a rookie WR, What's the forum have to say?

Hanson Brothers Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Ur gut sounds good to me! I lean towards Percy simply because he has huge upside and he can do it all. Hester has not proven a to be a great WR by any means. Plus look at the Vikes schedule vs. the Bears. Percy is set to have a big year, they have already said he will be on the field A LOT!

jordanzs Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I'm ranking Hester to be a top 20 receiver this year. I'm thinking Percy will be a top 40 receiver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacosud Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 (edited) I like Percy this week as well with Berrian questionable. Overall at a glance???? I say Hester. Chicago wants him to be a number 1 and he should get those targets. Edited September 12, 2009 by sacosud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franchizetag Posted September 13, 2009 Author Share Posted September 13, 2009 I lean towards Percy simply because he has huge upside When I here that a player has upside. I guess I'm wondering what that means to you vs. the next guy. Last year, two rookie recievers that would have qualified as having realized upside would have been Eddie Royal, who was considered a deep sleeper last year and DeShaun Jackson who also was a sleeper. And while those guys had really good years as rookies, they were really inconsistent. Harvin I believe is a little different because he was a first round pick and I believe there is a different expectation that comes with that. He's suppose to produce. So to me, Harvins upside would mean that he will be a consistent starting receiver. Is that what you think of Harvin in this case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
