Start Question...Austin or Britt?

  • jmog
    In my league we start 3 WRs.
    My top 2 are obvious this week with Mike Wallace and Larry Fitzgerald.
    Normally Miles Austin would be an obvious 3rd WR, but this week he is still healing from a hammy and will be covered by D. Revis of the Jets.
    Do I still go with Austin or start K. Britt against JAX?

    If it matters my QB is Romo.

    I'd go with Britt.

    I'd go with Austin. I have Britt and I am worried that his lingering health issues and not being able to develop timing with Hasselback might hurt him the first few games. Its a tough choice either way. Is your league PPR or standard.

    0.5 PPR plus bonus points on TDs based on length.
    <20 yard td 6 pts
    20-30 8 pts
    30-40 10 pts

    And so on...2 bonus pts for every 10 yards on td length after 20 yrds.

    I hope you went Britt. Big day, and the 80 yard TD.
  • jmog
    Yes...I went with Britt ..Austin would have to unload on Revis to make it a bad switch ;)
  • sportchampps
    hell yeah im glad you didnt listen to me. I played britt he got mad points
  • jmog
    The 80 yard td was 20 pts in our league...well 28.5 if you include the pts from yards and thr reception

    I played Britt in my league as well.

    As for Austin, his value wont be much higher. Still living off that big season 2 years ago. Dez is the #1 in Dallas, and Witten is the #2. Id sell him if you can.
