Dwayne Bowe Signs; May Still Start

Chiefs' rookie WR Dwayne Bowe signed with enough time left in training camp to where Head Coach Herm Edwards has publicly stated that Bowe still has the opportunity to win a starting role opposite Eddie Kennison.

This is great news for keeper leaguers; however, be wary of Herm Edwards. The New York Jets organization told Edwards for two years following the drafting of WR Jerricho Cotchery that Cotchery was perhaps the most talented WR on the roster, but Herm chose not to listen.

He has stated that not playing Cotchery in his first two seasons is one of his biggest coaching regrets; therefore, there is a chance that he has learned from his mistakes. Regardless, the Chiefs have so many offensive question marks (will LJ hold out? Who is their QB?) that Bowe is an extremely risky, yet talented, draft pick. You are better off ignoring him in annual leagues and opting for Eddie Kennison, as Kennison is the only WR guaranteed a year-long starting job.
