Week 1 Start/Sit

[Jake0890]

For me in a .5 PPR

Vereen at BUF
Or
Jordy at SF

Thanks boys

Jordy easy. Packers are going to have to throw, and Vereen is just a 2nd string back, even if the Pats are playing against the Bills.

[Jake0890]

Actually... I have to choose 2 of Reggie Wayne, Dwayne Bowe, and Roddy White.

Leading towards the first two because White is hurt.

Pick 2

Garcon vs. PHI
Lacy @ SF
Sproles vs. ATL
Colston vs. ATL

Agree with Shady, Maritimer and whoever else, go Garcon and Colston.

I like Lacy a lot this year, but this is a rough matchup. I can see 80 total yards and a touch, but both of those receivers could easily go for 100+ and maybe multiple TD's.

[vincecarter4pres]

Need two:

Sproles vs. ATL
S. Smith vs. SEA
Givens vs. ARI
Shorts vs. KC

You guys got to say if this is PPR haha.

I'd so Smith and Givens though.

[vincecarter4pres]

Flex pick 1 standard scoring:

Gio Bernard @ CHI
Vereen @ Buf
D Richardson vs Ariz


Leaning Vereen

Richardson. I think he can total 100+ yards and a touch today.

Vereen would be my second pick.

I think they're all good plays though to an extent. I get that Chicago's D is very good and that Bernard is likely to take a few weeks to get going, but I can see him getting very low yardage with a punch in touchdown or two.

Need 2

Standard scoring w/ big play bonuses.

A.J. Green @ Chi
Hakeem Nicks @ Dal
Dwayne Bowe @ Jax
Mike Wallace @ Cle

Green and Bowe.

[vincecarter4pres]

Standard 12 person, for flex: Ben Tate or a hobbled Victor Cruz?

Giants play first. If Cruz is at all healthy, you play him. Don't get cute.

Eh, IDK. I mean I'm going to say yeah, gimme Cruz if he's good to go cause he's a great receiver in a game likely to be a shootout, but Tate is an interesting play this week. He'll probably get 15+ touches in this game.

I would go bowe and wayne, with two solid wr's its not worth the risk to start roddy....unless he is your flex play

I think I'd go Vereen, but this is a lot closer then it seems. In fact, I changed my mind, gimme La Forge.

Vereen could wind up putting up a relative dud here and Nelson should be good for some yardage and a TD or 2. Some people are going a little too crazy over this matchup as if Green Bay isn't a well oiled machine on offense when things are clicking no matter who they are playing. I got Green Bay winning this game by 10+ on a score at least in the high 20's. Give me the WR1 from the team with Rodgers in that matchup.

This week I'd go Bowe and Roddy if Roddy is good to go health wise.

I still like Wayne a lot this year, but if he doesn't get his early this could be a game where he only gets like 5 catches for 60 something yards with no TD's. I can see a big play from Hilton, a pick 6 and a rushing TD, with this thing out of hand fast and so he sees limited snaps even early in the game cause why waste him?

I know this is the NFL and anything can happen, but Oakland looks to be a bottom 5 worst team and Indy a semi-contender with such a well balanced attack on both sides, this could be a game where Luck barely even plays in the 4th.

Ahmad Bradshaw vs. Oakland

or

Chris Givens vs. Arizona

in my FLEX for a full PPR league?

Everything about this Oakland matchup screams start Bradshaw, even in a PPR. Here's my hesitation -- if the game turns into a blowout early, I would not at ALL be surprised to see Ballard get some heavy work to rest Bradshaw's ankle. On the other hand, I've heard the argument that Indy will ride Bradshaw as a workhorse this year because he's only on a one year contract and don't really care if he wears out. Furthermore, if it's a blowout, it's very possible that it's because AB has gone for 90 and 2 TDs in the first half. It's a risk, and a coin flip for me. Sorry I can't be more definitive. I guess pick whichever of those two Bradshaw arguments you believe and go accordingly.

I'd roll with Givens.

FWIW, I'm higher on Givens then most it seems this season and taking a wait and see with Bradshaw compared to others.

This clears up nothing for me, this is exactly the inner argument I'm having.

Yeah I'm actually pretty high on Givens this year myself. He's high on my list of candidates to come out of nowhere with an 80 catch 1400 yard 9 TD year.

Not saying that's likely though. Just on that late draft Hail Mary list I have him way high. I think regardless he provides amazing value where he's going in drafts and maybe 60 catches for over 1000 yards and 7 or 8 TD's is very very likely.

Awfully glad I went with Smith and Sproles in the end (benching Shorts and Givens). Some great info out of Evan Silva on Twitter -- Browner and Sherman play sides on defense, they don't follow individual men. Even with Browner out, Sherman was going to stay on his side, so Smith would be able to get free by just lining up on the other side of the formation. Result? Double digits.

Question going forward -- is Jared Cook legit? I picked him up to get me through while Gronk is out. I may have some trade bait on my hands...

Unrelated, but I have a couple of Redskins WRs, and I'm not sure who to start tonight -- Joshua Morgan or Santana Moss?
