Boldin, by the way, looked as awful as I have ever seen anyone. I think Braylon Edwards got into the lockeroom and put on Boldin's uni. Only way I can explain the drops.
I love Roddy White against a streaky secondary in a defense who cannot get pressure on the QB, and Andre Johnson against the shaky Jags D. His partner in crime is flirting with top 10 status and will probably get the TD Johnson rarely gets. I like Evans and Moss both equally, though inclement weather looms and could hurt Evans more than Moss.
I pushed the Jets WRs way back to the late teens - one of them will have a better game than that but you never know which one. Note Marques Colston has slipped into the 20's and he may not even be that good a start. Brees has begun to love Moore and a lot of the targets are going there and Moore now resides at Colston's former spot, at 13.

A lot of people have Bowe down this week - You have him way up....how do you figure?
Hey Brian, thanks for the question.
As much as the matchup is a rough one for him, Thigpen has been targeting him alot. While Nmamdi Asomugha is a great CB and the secondary in OAK has been playing out of its' shoes, Bowe will still get his targets. He's had 4 TDs in the last 4 games (tho Chargers kept him out of the end zone) and he has produced even against good defenses like TENN and Buffalo (tho that TD vs Buf was very late). He even got a nice TD against Tampa, though his yards were poor.
Finally, I think Mark Bradley plays and between Bowe, Bradley and Gonzo, the Chiefs have a lot of weapons in the pass game that cannot be blanketed without the others going off. I think Bowe will have the opportunity to do well.
I think what folks may be worried about is the oline and Thigpen's ability to get the ball off before he is buried. And that is a concern. But I think Bowe is really undervalued this week, and while maybe he's a bit high on my list, I think he's got more going for him than folks feel this week. I see him behind guys like Housh, Antonio Bryant (who has a nice matchup), and Skillet Hands Edwards and just think I would roll with the guy who has been for the most part a very consistent producer this year.
