In my league we start 3 WRs.
My top 2 are obvious this week with Mike Wallace and Larry Fitzgerald.
Normally Miles Austin would be an obvious 3rd WR, but this week he is still healing from a hammy and will be covered by D. Revis of the Jets.
Do I still go with Austin or start K. Britt against JAX?

If it matters my QB is Romo.

I'd go with Austin. I have Britt and I am worried that his lingering health issues and not being able to develop timing with Hasselback might hurt him the first few games. Its a tough choice either way. Is your league PPR or standard.

0.5 PPR plus bonus points on TDs based on length.
<20 yard td 6 pts
20-30 8 pts
30-40 10 pts

And so on...2 bonus pts for every 10 yards on td length after 20 yrds.

I played Britt in my league as well.

As for Austin, his value wont be much higher. Still living off that big season 2 years ago. Dez is the #1 in Dallas, and Witten is the #2. Id sell him if you can.
