Glenn expected to miss season
Big update on my morning Crayton Nation post. Ryan Wilson on Fanhouse just pointed out a Hashmarks post that Terry Glenn is probably done for the season.
Mosley is usually right on with Cowboys news, so this should be proved accurate. Everything positive I've said about Crayton all offseason will now be tested. I can't wait to find out if I'm right; expect Crayton to be a solid WR3 year. I don't see Crayton as a gamebreaker, but a solid possession receiver who will help PPR teams consistently.
The news also helps another Cowboys receiver immensely - and I'm not talking about T.O. Jason Witten just moved up a spot in Tony Romo's progressions. With very little depth behind Owens and Crayton, Witten should play a larger role than normal. This is probably going to be a pass-first team, yet they only have three quality receivers. Owens is going to stretch the field a little more than normal with Crayton and Witten taking the underneath stuff.
I'd be surprised if the Cowboys don't sign a veteran receiver to help fill out the roster.

Would you keep Mike Furrey on your bench or drop him for Crayton?

Half-point per reception league, would you drop Mason for Crayton? Thx.

I dropped G. Jennings for P. Crayton. Jennings probably wont play sunday and I think Crayton has more upside than guys like Jennings, Curry, and Furrey. Actually, if he plays all year...I think hes looking at 60-70 Catches, 900-1000 yards and 8-10 TDs. He can be an elite #2...dont get me wrong, he's no Housh, Wayne, or Boldin. But I'm looking for BIG things...

I'm on a PPR league. I'm still stumped on who to start. I got Reggie Wayne and Steve Smith as my top WRs, and I'm thinking of starting Crayton vs NYG over Kevin Curtis vs GB. What do you think? Also, Should I start Kitna over Roethlisberger? Thanks

Gregg...
Would you start M.Lynch against Denver or B.Jackson against Philly ...leaning towards Lynch...

PPR league: I gotta start one of Vincent Jackson, Ron Curry or Crayton. Who would you go with?

I just dropped Jenning for Crayton.
Do you think this is a mistake for the longrun?
