Keeper...Rivers or Winslow

[27atwater]

I am allowed 3 keepers and am keeping Larry Fitzgerald and LT in my only keeper league, but am unsure about who else I want to keep. I can't choose another RB or WR, so it's down to Phillip Rivers and Kellen Winslow. Initially, I thought Rivers would be it hands down, but the more I think about it, Winslow may be the better choice. All of the other teams will already have QBs. It's an 8 team league and all 7 others are keeping their QB. This tells me that I can get a QB via the draft w/o worrying too much that someone will be desperate for a QB. Also, the options available will be Palmer or Big Ben (undecided who 1 guy is keeping), Cutler, Favre, Rivers and a few other very solid names. Winslow is a top 2-3 TE and it'd be kinda nice to not have to worry about getting a TE. Since I can't keep an additional WR or RB, I see this as a chance to get a top player at a different position. let's face it, Rivers ain't the best at his.

Soooo....any feedback? Am I insane?

If all 7 other teams are keeping their QB I'd honestly say you were insane if you kept Rivers over Winslow. If all else fails you would more than likely be able to pick up Rivers again in the draft due to them already being set at QB.

Ditch Rivers and don't think twice about it.

thanx...just needed some reassurance.

Exactly, the fact that they're all keeping their QBs makes the decision for you.

I don't think Winslow will be top 3 this year but at least he'll be average at worst, top 3 at best. That's worth the risk of losing Rivers when there's plenty of other options available.

Keep Winslow, no question. Cleveland has loaded up, and that only means more looks for Winslow.

Rivers isn't even worth starting imo, pick up someone like David Garrard in the 5th round and youll do better.
