Fantasy Football Help!
 
Hey guys couldn't think of a better place to get some fantasy football advice. I watch a couple of forums and you guys always have the best advice and comments!
Here is what I have. I am looking for a consistent wide receiver to add to my team. How would you guys rank these 3 players and why.

Terry Glenn
Steve Smith
Reggie Wayne

Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!

Smith, Glenn, Wayne.

This is of course if you're playing Yahoo. Smith also gets return yards so that will help him get more points. Glenn has been hot lately, but his ranking shot up because of the 3 TD's he got on Sunday. Wayne is also a good choice.

In Yahoo they rank 50 (Glenn), 62 (Smith), 74 (Wayne) respectively.

Our Scoring system is 1 pt for every 10 yards and 3 for TD.

I'd rank them Glenn, Smith, Wayne.

Glenn is a Parcell's favorite and will play as long as he is healthy. Smith can be iffy based on his drug problems.
Wayne is hot now, but Harrison is the workhorse on that team.

But any given Sunday could be a career game for them.

Thing is Smith gets points for return yards, Glenn has had 2 games with 0 receptions which means 0 points.

The only thing with Wayne is that the Colts like going to Harrison, but when a team focuses on Harrison, Wayne has huge numbers and is a Fantasy monster. The key is using him when the defense keys on Harrison.

Glenn! he is the favorite target for q carter. he got 3 td's last week. he's a good pick.

Worked for Tampa Bay. Problem is, the ball is going to be spread to James now too, meaning Wayne will get even fewer passes.

If your league factors return yards, always pick the returner out of a pack of average guys.

I'd steer clear of Glenn. Why? Galloway. Bryant. Doesn't matter if Parcells does magic happy dances designing plays for Glenn, if he's not open, the QB doesn't throw. If he's not open, one of the other guys is, meaning no points for Glenn.

That leaves you Steve Smith. Not an ideal choice, look for almost anyone else. There's bound to be a diamond in the rough in there somewhere.

Actually, Bryant hasn't had any great games this year. Lately, Glenn has been taking away most of his touches.

It is true about the return yards though.

You don't need a great game, you don't even need a good catch. You get 500 yards in a season and a few TD's, that's points away from other guys.

In fantasy football, you can't just take one guy into your thinking, you need to take that player, his entire team, his team's tendencies, the defense that week, their tendencies, then to know when to throw it all out the window and go with your gut. (Like I should have done instead of benching Harrison against the Bucs).

It depends what league you're playing in. Because in head to head matchups, you almost always need a great game from at least 3/4th of your roster to make up for the slacking of other players.

Thanks for all your help guys, If you care I ended up getting Terry Glenn, just hopes he doesn't get a hang nail and not play. :)
