  I would say Pierce and L Murray are possible Foster type players this year cause they are going very late or not at all in drafts.

  I'd agree if I was calling out a back up that could rise, but I was kinda angling it toward players starting (like Foster entering 2010 as a starter), but yeah, he totally is rags to riches capable. Pierce that is..

  Heyward-Bey? In so so sure he will ever be a tram's WR1 or WR2, let alone a fantasy WR1 or 2.. Those others over Harris? Yep, Harris is getting no love from his coaches.. Is path to the line up is a long one, talent wise I still love him, though.

  Harris might exit the upside board tonight... It's not his fault, and I still own him in all dynasty formats (and will wait on him).

  I don't see it this year, as Fitz will hog a lot. Anything is possible, though. I wish Floyd were in a different situation. I guess it could turn out to be a decent situation, we will have to see how much Palmer throws...

  I kind of see a Fitz/Boldin type of situation starting with Fitz/Floyd. Not quite to the numbers, but not extremely far off either.

  Yeah I do like him guys.. But Cruz was W1 like, maybe Cruz isn't the right comparison? Could Palmer throw enough to make Floyd high end fantasy WR2 material?

  Palmer isnt going to have a choice IMO. That team is going to have to throw a ton. I see a situation where there are 2 WRs big and talented enough to be WR 1's...just like Fitz/Bolden or Roddy/Julio.

  I own him in many leagues, almost all of mine. The price I paid to get him was minimal (late rookie/FA picks or a few BB dollars) so ill definitely wait on him too. I think he is Dallas' WR 2/3 by mid season.

  Smitty, I know you like Britt but give me your thoughts on Wright?
  Great article!

  Well i guess we can define "The Next Cruz" a lot of ways... bench player rising to super star, or already known guy rising to super star. Same with "Foster"... Pierce isn't quite in the same situation Foster was, as Rice is the clear starter, but Pierce could be an even bigger home run than a Foster if he turns into a top 5RB this year, but injury will have to happen.
