2012 Outlook: Quality Backup

Last updated on Jul-16-2012 by Chris Weeks

It sounds like Holmes and Sanchez have made up during the off season after last year's late season meltdown. Late in the 2011 season Holmes publicly criticized Sanchez, Schottenheimer and the offensive line causing many to question Rex's decision to name Holmes a captain. During the off season Holmes, Sanchez and some of the other receivers got together to work out. Hopefully this time together gave them a chance to mend fences and move on to this year. Last season was one of Holmes' worst years since his rookie season when he pulled in just 49 receptions. So long as Sanchez remains the starting quarterback Holmes' numbers should be worthy of a fantasy starter this season. On the other hand, if Tebow takes over the starting role, Holmes' production is likely to suffer. Not knowing just how big a role Tebow will play in this offense is cause for concern. Until we know more its probably best to select Holmes as your third receiver. The potential is here for a big season but I'm not sure this run heavy offense can make it happen.

2012 Experts Mock Draft (June) June 6, 2012 - June 25, 2012	9.05	DraftCalc.com - Holmes isn't exactly a spring chicken, but I think he is more than capable of extremely outperforming this draft value.

2012 Experts Mock Draft (August) Aug 14 - 24	9.03	FootballGuys.com - Another WR where you would hate to have him in a weekly lineup, but in best ball? Sure, since he should be good for 7 or 8 TDs.
