Flex Spot: SimsWalker or Hightower

crzy · 2009-10-10T13:35:02-07:00

I'm trying to figure out which player to start in the flex spot. This is a PPR league and Tim Hightower has more receptions (20) so far this season than Sims-Walker. Walker, however, has been finding the endzone with regularity the past couple weeks. Another option is Jerricho Cotchery, but with his injury status this week, I'm not going to play him. Cotchery goes against the Dolphins on Monday Night.

Sims-Walker. Cardinal offense hasnt used Hightower as much and they are giving Beanie Wells more touches.

Whereas Hightower was kept back to block. Basically Hightower hasnt been used the same since the season started with their new OC.

Hightower has gotten a bulk of all the carries and he leads the Cardinals in receptions (this is a PPR league).

He's gotten more carries than Beanie in every game, and I don't see why he wouldn't get double digit carries against Houston.

Hightower

Houston has a horrible run D....any opposing RB has gone wild on them every week.

Start Hightower
