Miles Austin

Is he worth taking a flyer on? My starting WRs are Fitzgerald, Roddy White, and Manningham, and I've got Pierre Garcon on the bench. Think it's worth dropping Garcon to grab him? I doubt he'll have another day like today, but I doubt Garcon will either.

How long do you have? If Williams is back this week, his targets will go down. If not, he's proven himself enough to be the #1 option ahead of Clayton, and potentially on par with Witten (who may see extended blocking assignments to ensure Romo has enough time to get his throws out). So, to me, his #s will depend a lot on Williams, not because Roy is so great, but because Romo has shown in the first few games of the season that he's trying to get everyone involved in the passing game.

Dallas is on a bye this upcoming week but I'm sure he won't be around if you wait on him. Garcon is on a bye as well and with Gonzo coming back his value may go down. No way Austin puts up a game like he did yesterday (no receiver will) but I recommend him as he has surpassed Crayton and Hurd most definately as the #2 in Dallas. Roy Williams is overrated and I don't think he's very good to begin with. The Lions robbed Dallas in that trade.

I picked him up in place of Garcon. Limited cost, as even if Austin bombs and Garcon is picked up, there are other receivers available of similar value.
