Boldin or Colston; Revisited

On November 13th, I posited that I would rather have Marques Colston than Anquan Boldin for the duration of the fantasy season. With the ending of 95% of fantasy leagues this past weekend, it is time to revisit my "prediction".

Since that prediction, the players starts are as follows;

Boldin
40 Catches
432 Yards
1 Touchdown
10 Rushing Yards
3 Fumbles / 2 Fumbles Lost

This equates to about 46 fantasy points, assuming no fractionals, and no points for fumbles not lost.

Colston
28 Catches
415 Yards
4 Touchdowns

This equates to 47 points, assuming scoring above. Note that Marques Colston does not have a single rushing or passing attempt in his entire career, which is strange for a guy that has been basically his teams #1 WR from Day One.

I guess I can claim victory here, especially given the extreme negative reaction I received around the office when touting my theory.
