My Pick

Pretty easy pick here. I was looking for another WR and I really like Antonio Bryant this year.

The Bengals face a tough schedule, but Bryant has never had a QB as good as Palmer. He’s also never lined up alongside a WR as good as 85.

Bryant has been inconsistent and injury prone at times, but let’s not forget that he was a top 10 WR two years ago with Jeff Garcia and no OchoCinco. I don’t think he’ll be a top 10 WR again, but top 20 isn’t out of reach.

Laveranues Coles failed to fill the void left my TJ Houshmandzadeh, but Bryant should be able to bring the element back to the passing game that TJH left. Bryant’s bye week is different than the three starters I have, so he’ll make a nice bye week starter or flex option.

Finally, should one of my starters miss any time because of injury, I’d have no problem starting Bryant as an every week starter.
