Title: tight end hell
Post by ugley on Sep 10^th, 2002, 12:47pm

I have Dilger and Riemersma in one league, Dilger and Heap in the other. Would you waive any of them for M. Ricks? 1pt. for 10 yds,6 pt td. leagues.

I think Ricks will outperform all of the TEs listed above. [smiley=jawdroppin.gif]

I would drop Dilger and pickup Ricks. He played WR in college, but it too big and makes him a touch slow. Pollard is the TE for Manning, but while he is healing...Peyton has proven he will go to Ismail instead of the TE.
If McMichael in MIA is still avaialble go get him. If not then also look at Kleinsasser as a filler for Chamberlain for a short 3-4 weeks filler. Ricks will be THE TE in DET for a few yrs. The WRs for the Lions blow. No running game and young Qbs that will rely on the TEs while learning. This makes Ricks in a good position on a team will give the TE more looks.

Hope this response is not too late. :-[

I am basically with DOLFAN here. I would get Ricks in both of the leagues you mentioned. However, more specifically, I would drop Riemersma in the first one and Dilger in the second. Heap is definitely a keeper.

What did you end up doing?/What are you planning to do?

Agreed. Dump any/all of them except Heap. I like Heap a little more than Ricks.
