Who will have move of an impact this year, Devin Hester (CHI) or Anthony Gonzalez (IND)?

Question

Who will help me the best in fantasy football?

Answer 1

Gonzalez

Answer 2

Hester...name a top WR from Chicago?  Exactly.. Hester will be getting many more reps on the offense, along with continuing to return kicks.

Gonzalez has to compete with Reggie Wayne, Dallas Clark, Marvin Harrison, and Joseph Addai for catches, I'd doubt he'll make much of an impact for more than a game or two.  Indy is too stacked to take Gonzo for serious points.

Answer 3

At WR, or overall?

My league rewards points for return yards, so Hester is far and away the choice for my scoring settings.

In leagues that do not reward special teams scoring for Hester, it's closer.

Gonzalez could be positioned to start pushing for more touches if Harrison's decline continues.  So far, it's been mostly the Reggie Wayne & Dallas Clark show.

Hester learned on the job at WR and made some strides.  He's most often used as a decoy, but given their lack of talent at wideout, he may get a lot of work.  Brandon Lloyd, Marty Booker, yecch.

I like Hester, particularly if his return yards count.

Answer 4

Gonzo...ONLY because of the team and Peyton

Answer 5

tough call. we don't know yet what gonz's role will be, e.g. wr 1, 2 or 3. also, hester is probably the only WR left in chicago, but hester also has a new rookie qb, and a completely unknown running game. if you are drafting now, i think gonz is slightly safer, but you nreally need to wait until week 1.

Answer 6

Gonzales.
