Wrong place suppose to be in NFL forum but...

I'll probably go with Bledsoe. Cowboys are playing the Redskins def that is alright but sucks against the pass. Brooks has to play against the Giants def that is alright as well but Deuce is suppose to get a lot of carries. As Parcells he is going to limit Julius' carries so that means more passing for Bledsoe. Bledsoe to Johnson = TD :smokin

I start Brooks...not solely because Bledsoe is playing Washington, but because Brooks is the better choice...he will get you more stats.

Anyone who says Bledsoe is a Cowboys homer. Brooks is a far better choice. Joe Horn, Dante Stallworth, Deuce McAllister all catch ball from him. He can scramble. Saints have a more vertical offense and he doesnt get sacked as much.

Bledsoe, Bledsoe has a far better receiving crew than Brooks, not to mention Jason Whitten as a tight end come on now.....Brooks just has Joe Horn nothing more nothing less...

Or they will say this because they are an anti-Cowboys homer.

Fact is it all depends on your league and who the matchups are. Brooks has the potential of scoring more because of his running ability. However, in the four leagues I am in, Bledsoe outscored Brooks by an average of 34.43pts to 16.92. It is also just one week. The first couple of weeks of fantasy ball can be tough because no real trends have been established. I start Brooks only because I think he will be more productive against the Giants D than Bledsoe will be against Washington's.

Thanks for proving my point, batman.

Joe Horn > Keyshawn Johnson
Donte Stallworth > Terry Glenn (who could be injured again at any moment.)
Az Hakim > Any other Cowboys WR
Deuce can catch out of the backfield.
Michael Lewis and Devry Henderson can come in to add another deep threat at any moment.
The Saints mainly use TEs to block. This was even the case when they had Wesley Walls.

Your point was that Brooks was a better choice....Batmans was that Bledsoe was a better choice...here is his post....

Bledsoe, Bledsoe has a far better receiving crew than Brooks, not to mention Jason Whitten as a tight end come on now.....Brooks just has Joe Horn nothing more nothing less...

You talk about being injury prone, Glenn is but so is Donte Stallworth.....Hakim is a great [/sarcasm] receiver...which explains of course why he has been no better than the #3 guy in St. Louis and N.O. and couldn't even be the #1 in Detroit before the guys they have now got there. He is fast but has problems holding on to the ball.
