Time to Drop Harrison?
Not a great day for hopeful Marvin Harrison owners. An article on the Indianapolis Star website makes it sound like Harrison won't be helping anyone soon.
When asked if he thought Marvin Harrison would play this week, Peyton Manning paused, and said, "I wouldn't count on it."
I'm a little late to the party here, but I picked up Anthony Gonzalez in a few leagues this week and suggest you do the same if you need receiver help.
I've had my doubts about Gonzalez all season, but the time off with a thumb injury appeared to help him. He looked like a new receiver against Atlanta. With the Jaguars and every other team likely to double Reggie Wayne, Gonzalez should put up numbers worthy of a roster spot as a WR5/6 the rest of the way.
If you own Harrison, I'd wait to see what happens this week. If he doesn't practice, I don't think it's crazy to drop him. Would you really have any confidence using him during the playoffs? He will probably be limited even if he plays. It only took three years, but ranking ranking Reggie Wayne ahead of Harrison finally paid off.

Eekes. Picking two?
Out of that bunch, you have to start Lee Evans #1 then Crayton and Gonzalez are the next options.
I'd probably lean toward Crayton since Charles Woodson is questionable and you know the Pack is going to do all they can to slow down TO which should open up the field for Crayton.
