Steve Breaston or Vincent Jackson - Week 12


bleys

Recommended Posts

Steve Breaston has been a big target for a bad QB, but still getting the numbers.. he just needs to find the endzone more often.. he has put up big numbers 3 out of the last 4 weeks.. Cards play San Fransisco this week.. and that's tempting..

Vincent Jackson is finally making it back to the field.. The one and only target for Rivers (although we've seen Rivers will find people to catch the ball regardless)... San Diego plays the Colts this week, and the chances are high it'll be a shootout..

Who do you start?

(I already have VJack in the starting lineup, but figure 2nd opinions won't hurt ;)

Fred Jackson is another option, but I'm going to sit him against that Pittsburgh run defense...

ive got Jackson, Johnson, Wallace and Nicks on my HCL team.

Tempted to play Jackson, but i think im going to wait a week, playing Johnson and Wallace this week.

If the rest of SD's catchers weren't so banged up, I'd do the wait and see thing ... as is I'm in the do I bench Welker or Austin quandary.

I find it hard to believe VJ isn't going to step right in and blow up with some numbers.. Rivers has been murderin folks all year, now he has a legit #1 playmaker on the field...

My biggest concern was Breaston.. I prob'ly should have started him over Santonio Holmes, but I got a solid showing from Holmes last night.. I just have a funny feeling that Breaston is going to have a huge week and I didn't start him..

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
