Can’t decide between Rice or Sharpe

https://www.muthead.com/19/team-builder/959643

What do do you guys think I should do? I love my receivers already, and realistically I need a better tight end in Sharpe, but that rice card just looks too damn good not to use lol so idk who to choose

I had Sharpe last year and was really looking forward to when he got released via Legends (I took Lewis as my team Captain). When his card came out I compared it to my other TE's and other than speed he didn't match up. I ended up not getting him. Then TOTW released the updated Erntz. I powered him up and with Chems he is 97 ovr. I got him at +2 speed so I believe he is up to 88 there. His blocking is not that great but I have Gronk as my #2.His route running (I think) is superior to Sharpe's. Erntz has been a beast since I leveled him up.

I also have Rice and he has been great for me so far. Maxed out via his Legend card. I have him now as my #2 WR with maxed out Moss as #1.

Depends on your playstyle really.    I'm personally heavy on tightends in the pass game and always have been, thus took Sharpe on day 1 and wouldn't trade him for anyone else.    WR's are easy to find for your style - speed, hands, size, strength, whatever.    The fastest tightend with great hands is also the best run blocker?    Not going to find that combo elsewhere.    If your game is dependent on targeting a specific receiver, go Rice.    If you can get the job done with your current crew, Sharpe is nasty and comparatively about a 10x upgrade compared to Rice being a fairly minor upgrade over Jones.

Although I am using Sharpe, I can second this. If you want the best players and difference makers at a positon, you gotta choose Rice. For me personally there are too many WRs I really like irl, so I like to switch those up all the time.

Quote from jlids12 >> Btw I looked at your lineup.  Who is currently your team captain?

Also, are you doing like a cats and birds theme?  Almost your whole team is seahawks, eagles, falcons, jaguars, and lions.

 Hahahaha ive never looked at it like that. Seahawks are my favorite team, but I just use players I like from teams I like and I like a lot of players from the jags defensive, falcons and eagles offense. Lions not so much but I packed that Stanford and just decided to keep him for the chems

I have Gronk at TE powered up, so I use Rice.  I run a half Pats theme, and they have so many good options at receiver--Moss, Edelman (don't sleep on him), Cooks--and eventually Chad Johnson will get a power up, so I may switch out Rice for Sharpe at that point, but until then, best early game decision I made.
