Title: Patten or Branch?
Post by ColaSteeler on Oct 3^rd, 2002, 1:12pm

My WRs are currently Horn, D. Jax, Chambers, McCardell and Patten. I have to start 3. I get 1 point per reception, and per 10 yards received. TDs=6 points.

McCardell and Patten would only start if they had favorable matchups, and during byes. I also pay $2 per add/drop.

Is Branch more valuable than Patten? I've been going back and forth on this, and I actually picked up Patten since he was the #2 on the depth chart. What I don't know is if Branch gets more looks each game, and if I should keep Patten's steady average of 10-15 points over Branche's upside and my $2.

I would stick with Patten. He is still the starter and that alone is the only difference.
