    Default WR pickup help

    For the league and team listed below, who of the following do you think makes the better year long pickup for my team. Keep in mind that this is a PPR league that also counts return yards. I would be dropping Hawkins. Or do I drop Hartline as well and pickup two of them? Thanks!

    Josh Gordon
    Titus Young
    Brandon Gibson
    Chris Givens
    Cecil Shorts


    12 team H2H, PPR w/ return yards. Starters: 1QB, 2WR, 2RB, TE, WR/RB, WR/TE, K, DST.
    QB: Rodgers, Ponder
    WR: Colston, Wallace, Britt, Hartline, Hawkins
    RB: Peterson, MJD, FJones, Rodgers, Ballard
    TE: Bennett, Finley
    K: Tucker
    D: Vikings

    I don't think you can deny Josh Gordon's recent hot streak with the Browns (4tds in 3 games) so I would go with him.

    Hartline has been mediocre aside from one unbelievable week so I would drop him as well if he's in your starting lineup and you need a better option. If that is the case then I would go with Gibson on the Rams.

    Gibson and Gordon.

    Drop Hawkins and Hartline. Replace them with GORDON and YOUNG - Megatron is being double-teamed, Pettigrew drops the ball too much, and Burleson is out for the year. Also, add to the fact that Det has no running game and is a pass-happy offense, he's a must add, imo.

    The Rams receivers will get receptions, but they won't score many TDs. I like Young's chances of doing so a lot more. Also, when Amendola comes back, whatever chemistry they do have with Bradford will likely suffer. Lastly, i can't trust Shorts or any Jag besides Jennings.

    I'd drop Hawkins forsure, just not enough plays. I'd keep Hartline for a little bit longer.

    Josh Gordon (has a nicer week) or Titus Young (who may split snaps with Broyles), but I'd take either over Hawkins.
