      You can eliminate Woodhead and Pierce immediately.

      Wallace is intriguing but NE's secondary should be pretty good, and it can't hurt to wait and see what Miami's new offense looks like since you've got other options.

      I like SJax this week, at home and healthy. My only hesitation is that he has come out of the gate slow the last couple of years, and Decker at home against Oakland is attractive.

      Since it's a PPR I think I'd go with Decker.

      List the teams their playing to help us out. Generally, we should all know but it's one less thing to think about when trying to compare match ups.

      I think Denver is going to have a chip on their shoulder as big as the one they had to start last year against the Ravens. I also think Rivers is much better than his ADP. So personally, I'd probably start Rivers, but I also generally believe you start the guys you drafted as starters for at least the 1st few weeks of the season, and that is most definitely Luck. YOu invested a high pick or good amount of money in him, you should probably play him until he proves otherwise.

      Same thing applies here... this time in regards to Lacy. I can see a bit more hesitation here considering they're playing Seattle. If you don't care and really want to play the matchups then I would go with Tate. I think he'll have a decent game and should be on the field a lot. The offense HAS to go through him and he's healthy for now.

      Allen will have Peterson on him most/all game.

            Not sure who to start in the flex, need some help. (Pick 1)

            HB Sproles(PHI) vs Jax
            HB Williams(NYG) vs DET
            TE Ebron(DET) vs NYG
            WR Tavon Austin(STL) vs MIN

            Currently, I have Sproles vs JAX in the lineup. I also have Shady at HB1. But Williams might be able to vulture a TD or 2 for NYG.

                  You are loaded at WR. If it's me, I start Sanders or Sammy over Coop at WR though. I think Sanders is going to put up some ridiculous numbers with Manning, especially since Welker is out.

                      I wouldn't say he's loaded at WR. I'm not a big fan of rookie WRs in fantasy (maybe a bias since I got burned by Justin Blackmon a couple of years ago and Tavon Austin last year). There's probably more proven guys you could have as #2 options after Jeffery.

                      I'd definitely start Sanders w Welker out now tho.

                      AND I'd start Gerhart over Pierce and maybe even Wilson over Foles, depending on how you feel about the matchup. Wilson has looked great this preseason and could be top 8 fantasy QB this year, Foles is bound for a regression imo.

                        Gerhart instead of Pierce. And Sanders instead of Cooper.

                          1. Golden Tate. He is gonna have a good year.

                          2. Ben Tate and Brandin Cooks. Tate is guaranteed lots of touches as the feature back. Cooks is getting blown up by seemingly everyone. We'll see, but Id rather roll the dice with a rook on a high octane offense than use your other options.

                          3. Deep league huh... Britt or Ebron woukd be my best guess here.

                            Mike Wallace vs NE
                            I'd go with Pierce. Good reciver out of the backfield and with Rice not there he's gunna have to carry a hefty load. CIN is gunna focus their defense on the deep ball because they are well aware of Joe Flacco's cannon.

                              Me league is standard scoring/3WRs and the flex can be a TE.

                              I'm starting C.Patterson for sure just need help with the other two WRs..

                              PICK 2:

                              Torrey Smith (CIN)
