Week 9 WRs

I can't trust Torrey Smith with how bad Flacco is. They are also playing Steelers D this week. Not good

I have:
Vincent Jackson
Eric Decker
Julio Jones
Plaxico Burress
Torrey Smith

I'm thinking Jackson, Decker, and Jones. Jackson is a #1 and Packers pass D isn't great. Decker is the guy in Denver. Even with horrible Tebow was...I think this is an ok match up. Decker even put up 15 points last week. Julio Jones is facing the Colts. This could be a great game for him

I like it. Though you're gambling with Decker/Tebow. Though I suppose he's a safer bet than Smith (though Smith has a higher ceiling with Evans out). Hopefully Julio is 100% and they pass more (seems they've been leaning on Turner a lot lately). But I like your picks, particularly in a PPR league.

I agree, Plaxico could do something, but I would go with the three you have. I would probably even drop Plaxico for someone like Jon Baldwin of the Chiefs, but I really don't like Plaxico.

Baldwin got picked up. It's funny; whenever I put in Plaxico he gets me nothing but every week I leave him on the bench he decides to be elite. Torrey Smith was a donut for me the past couple of weeks. Flacco cannot pass and it finally shows.

Decker might be a gamble but he did get a garbage time TD and had a good amount of receptions.
