Whose Injury is Going to Hurt the Most

Little love for Koppen

There have been some big injuries that might not make news with the Fantasy public, although they definitely should, but whose injury will affect their team the most.  Outside of the Percy Harvin injury, which I will not count for this blog post, will Jeremy Maclin, Dan Koppen or Dennis Pitta's injury hurt their team the most.  In my opinion, it will go in this order as far as most damaging  Koppen, Pitta and then Maclin.  Might sound crazy, but not if you really think about it.  Dan Koppen is a veteran center for the Denver Broncos, who are looking to go no huddle for the majority of the game.  Peyton Manning is the king of audibles at the line and you now just lost the centerpiece for making all of the calls on the line for you and are left with Manny Ramirez, I can 't make that up.  Manny will be the starting center at this time, but he will not have dreads or get into fights in the dugout.  Dennis Pitta, who in my opinion was right behind Anquan Boldin as most important for Flacco during last year's playoff run, was the security blanket.  Now that he and Boldin are not out there, Flacco will have to adjust as he knew that he could throw it up there to these 2 and they would come down with it more often than not.  The reason I don't have him above Koppen is the fact that they have Ed Dickson and they just signed Visante Shiancoe.  Both are serviceable and will be able to help out and this could be a break out year for Dickson, especially around the goal line.  Finally, Jeremy Maclin is at the bottom of this list.  I like Maclin a lot and he is a big loss, but this is similar to my thoughts on Brady.  No matter who is out there, they tend to find guys to throw to because of the system.  Well the same applies here with Chip Kelly, put a new guy out there as he is going to catch a few balls as this system is fast and has no time for injuries.  Maclin is a great talent, but anybody who has watched Oregon knows, that offense just reloads every year, but one thing you could count on, was a lot of points out of that offense.
