Hey guys, just thought I'd submit to your thoughts on who I should start this week: Todd Heap versus Oakland or Kellen Winslow Jr. versus Cincinnatti?
Seems like 6 one way or half a dozen the other. Heap is listed as questionable but the recent reports are favorable for him to start. Any ideas?

HEAP! Last year, it was smart to start ANYONE playing against the 49ers.
This year, Oakland is the team. :)

I thought the browns were playing Cinci.
Either way, I'd go with Heap.
EDIT: Browns are playing the bengals and KC is playing denver.

Winslow had a great game in week 1, but the Browns abandoned the run for some reason. Droughns only had 20-some yards. I wouldn't count on that every week. Winslow is a great backup fantasy TE, but Heap will be more reliable. McNair likes TEs anyways, but against Oakland, every Raven could have a great week. In week #1, Baltimore's other TE (forgot his name) was the Ravens' leading receiver.

I'd go with Heap too. Granted, Winslow started out well this year, but both Heap AND McNair are proven, so that's where I'd start.

Heap is already listed as questionable. That guy is good but he seems really soft. Not soft like a lady or fresh laundry, but soft like a prison bitch, which is bad.
I'd go with Winslow since they're more likely to be playing from behind.
The Ravens will probably just pound the heck out of the ball.

It really does come down to health though. Watch the news on Heap until Saturday night or early Sunday morning. If there's a chance he won't play, go with Winslow Jr. If both playing though, I say Heap is the better bet.
