    Good rankings..I can’t believe B. Edwards looks so good so fast…same goes for Colston but for differrent reason.

    Who would have thought neithe of the Moss’ would be top-10 WR options in Week 4? My how the highty have fallen….Randy may break out this week, however.

    I hope Randy Moss breaks out this weekend…I’m happy with Boldin as my #1, but I have to choose between B. Edwards (isn’t the speed the last thing to come back??) and A. Bryant as well, and they each have good matchups. Is Walter going to do a better job of getting Moss the ball? Will the Raiders run enough to get some safeties cheating up?

    Exactly, I can’t figure out how Braylon Edwards’ speed is already back either…The early word was he wasn’t even going to play until midseason, and now he’s already dominating. Hard to figure out…Surprisingly, KC is rated #3 against the pass and Oakland #2 so far this year, so it’s tough to go off the numbers…Although Oakland’s high rank probably has more to do with teams just running w/ big leads than it does their secondary…Screw the numbers, I agree, both are good matchups, and as you can see, I like Bryant slightly more than Edwards…I do think Walter will do a better job of getting the ball to Randy Moss, but if you went with those other 3 WRs and sat Moss, I seriously couldn’t blame you, something just doesn’t look right there.

    I’ll probably stick with Moss and hope the Raiders figured something out over their bye week, but if he stinks it up this game…he might not find his way off the bench for a long time.

    My other deeper league I’m trying to fill 2 WR spots behind Holt, and I have Branch, C. Henry, Gabriel, and the 49ers’ M. Robinson (elligible at RB & WR). I was planning on Branch and Henry, but you don’t seem to be a fan of Branch this week, why is that? (that much respect for the Chicago D?) Also, there’s some word about Henry possibly getting punished for puking out the passenger window…I’d probably be ok with Gabriel filling in, but Robinson’s probably a decent play as he should be getting more involved (running and catching, heck…maybe a trick play or two) and goal-line touches, right?

    Keith, I would say Gabriel is a no-brainer, since the Pats will need to air it out to keep up with Cincy. Start Henry only if you’re sure he’ll play. As of now, its looking like we won’t know until too late. In that case, I would go with Robinson. Branch is one of four wideouts going against Chicago so you can’t expect much from him.

    Keith – I pretty much echo Robby’s sentiments…While I like Branch’s skills, the fact he’s still learning a new offense, is competing with 3 other WRs for looks and plays at Chicago means he’s a tough start this week..Although no Alexander may mean even more 4-WR sets and pass plays, so he’s not an awful start and would probably come in around 35-40 if I continued the list.

    Henry would be nice, but the fact it’s a late Sunday start really hurts matters…Word is Marvin Lewis may just deactivate him…So the safe play is to obviously bench him, and picking b/w Robinson and Branch is basically a toss up.
