hehe, i dont even think berrian is on a team in my main league, but then again not many minnesota fans in it so not surprising I guess.

My opponent is starting collie this week so thinking and hoping week 1 was his best week and they'll put him a notch higher on "things that concern our defense against the colts" and shut him down!

I had Nicks in two of my leagues! Both on the bench!

I don't do fantasy football, but if I did I would not have Berrian on my team. he's not a #1 wr

Well there are not enough #1 WR's to go around in most leagues. So either you would be pretty thin at WR, or you would have to adjust your strategy, if you did play.

There are 32 teams all of which have a #1 WR and most fantasy teams have 12 teams (though some have more) with two WR slots (though some have more). Realistically, unless you got out-drafted, you should have two WRs that are #1 for some team.

Even with injuries in most leagues there should be plenty of WRs to go around.

Berrian isn't the #1 for the Vikings ... he's filling in for the #1 and there is a pretty sharp drop in production from him to Rice.

I don't think it's a "bad" idea to start Berrian ... but until he shows something it's definitely a risk.

At least I started Romo over Favre
