These are excerpts from an article by ESPN The Magazine. It's titled Hiding In Broad Daylight and it is about Reggie Wayne. The article is good and dare I say a must read? Click the link, read the article, go ahead I dares ya!

Reggie Wayne has never had a manicure. His hands are a battleground, dotted with dark marks, scratches and raised ridges of scar tissue. His brownish palms are enormous, but his fingers are comparatively short, and several of his knuckles are warped and oversize. "They get hurt all different ways," Wayne says. "From catching the ball and falling on them, or they'll get caught in guys' jerseys when you're blocking and they pull away." Dealing with hand aches and pains is something Wayne has grown used to. Even dislocated fingers don't faze him anymore. "Other people will scream," he says. "But I pop mine back in, buddy-tape them together and go back to work."

Wayne decided a long time ago to emulate his 34-year-old counterpart, and he has methodically improved his game each season. He caught 77 balls for 1,210 yards and 12 TDs in 2004, 83 for 1,055 and 5 in 2005 and 86 for 1,310 and 9 last season.

Last year was the year to draft him before Marvin Harrison.

For the majority of the season, Wayne was a bigger fantasy producer than Harrison was

True, True, But did we actually do it? If you did draft Wayne before Harrison last year come take credit in this thread. So do I assume a lopsided poll result saying yes?

I did.

You were that crazy person that ranked Wayne ahead of Harrison last year, weren't you?

Thus far everyone is on the agreeing with Mike...how scary is that?

ummmm, in non ppr leagues Marvin was still the #1 WR in the leaue. As far as most of the year goes, let's look at it by quarters:
1-4: Harrison - 39; Wayne - 34
5-9: (Week 6 was a bye) Harrison - 56; Wayne - 68
10-13: Harrison - 32; Wayne - 45
14-17: Harrison - 72; Wayne - 34

OK, so by looking at it from this standpoint, Wayne was better over the middle of the season, yet started our slower (both started pretty slow) and when fantasy owners needed him the most, Wayne disappeared and Harrison steped it up and helped owners win the cashola!!!

So I disagree, while Wayne had a great year last season, drafting him above Harrison was a sligh miss-step, especially come playoff time. Marvin was money when it mattered the most, and had the stronger overall body of work.

With that said, I would take Wayne over Harrison this season. With Marvin's age, I would simply feel better with Wayne at this point. When both finish in the top 3, can you go wrong with either one??

All a matter of how you want to look at it. To win in the playoffs, you have to get to the playoffs.

Good analysis though, and what it basically pointed out to me was exactly what I said last season. When the Colts needed to win, they looked to Reggie Wayne. He is the guy that Manning depends on when the team is in true battles.

That said, the Colts will be in more battles this year as they are the King of the Mountain, and teams will be looking to knock them down. My money would definitely be on Wayne this year.
