I agree on Cobb, will certainly start him, Wayne I'm iffy on, on the road against the Niners.

I think Wayne is the best receiver other than Cobb. The way you listed them is how I'd rank them.

Go with Cobb and Wayne. Wayne has a tough match-up, but he will still get 10+ targets. Thats the safest play. He may not do a lot, but he is at least going to be thrown to and not taken out of the gameplan.

The other 3 might not see 10 targets combined...or they could all go off lol. But I typically go with the safe play in fantasy over the high end risk. Its just a bonus when you get a guy who is both (Cobb is kind of that way).

Bowe and Edelman for sure, then Smith is probably 3rd. The rest are fill-ins at this point.

Cobb and Wayne for sure. I'm not super worried about Wayne's matchup against the 49ers.

I'd want to see if Amendola and Gronk are going to play but right now I'd go Bowe, Edelman, and Shorts. If Gronk and Amendola are playing I'd go Smith over Edelman.

Assuming I dont get any of my Waiver Claims cause I am not 0-2...

Do you start:
Josh Gordon over (Kenbrell Thompkins and Roddy White) -- league 1
Josh Gordon over (Eric Decker and Andre Johnson) -- league 2

league 1 I say yes if it wasnt for the QB situation in Cleveland. League 2 I am leaning towards no, but I dont trust Andre with the concussion.

If Andre practices all week its a no brainer. And Im not sure why I actually put Decker, he is starting lol.

But if Andre doesnt practice all week, and then is a gametime decision but ends up being limited or starts getting symptoms after his first hit or something I am fucked.

But, I tend to agree. Ill probably end up with AJ and not Gordon.

Im at a loss on who to start in my one league too.

2 WR slots and a Flex

Andre Johnson
Marquis Coleston
James Jones
DeSean Jackson
Darren McFadden (Who is made of glass and could break in the 1st quarter of any given NFL game)

Im leaning towards starting Jackson and Johnson (if Johnson is healthy) at WR and leaving my Flex with McFadden (who has been producing)

Any Thoughts?

Boldin was on my bench week 1. He burned me in week 2.

From up above: I'm not big on Decker this week. The Broncs play the Raiders at home and that one could be over by the end of Q1.
Don't worry about Boldin, he'll be fine. Seattle's D is insane and they're insanely insane at home, on MNF, against the Niners.

Yeah, good point. I have Henne going up against the Seattle D in my failball league this week. Should be epic.

DeAndre Hopkins or Brian Hartline for a flex. Fitz and Garcon are my starting WR's. PPR.

TE question. I have Vernon Davis and Martellus Bennett. Antonio Gates is available and Phillip Rivers is in my OP slot. Should I go with Bennett (or Davis) or pick up Gates given the Chargers receiving issues? Tennessee tends to give up 17.4 points against the Texans TE last week.

Also. David Wilson. Is he ever going to fucking do anything? How many more weeks should I waste a bench spot on him?
