I'm up against a monster team this week and I'd definitely need a homerun.

Does Pittsburgh even have any CBs who can cover anymore? I feel like CLE isn't going to go nuts passing with Manziel in his first start, and he strikes me as someone who's going to throw a few picks. Personally I'd go with White.

As an Eagles homer I really, really hate saying this but I don't think they'll be able to keep Romo away from Bryant for the entire game this time.

Rolling Romo and White then. Thanks for the confirmation bias!

Hmm, that's actually a lot tougher than it should be. Between Graham, Bennett, and Jeffery, who is the odd man out? I feel like you have to start Jeffery, as he'll get targets and yards. Then, I think I'd actually want to start Bennett since Marshall died. You'd be opening yourself up to a lot of risk if Cutler/Chicago have a bad game, though, so maybe go with Jimmy, who should have a great game too? I don't think you can make a bad choice between those three, but choosing only two is tough!

Sammy Watkins v GB

Pick 2! Originally I had Tate in but swapped him for Watkins. Now I'm thinking maybe Tate over Jennings might be a better play?

Giants run d is really bad, so I think you can start Morris again... but Washington is horrible and will probably go down big early. Hmm. I guess I'd do: Benjamin, Gordon (though if you're feeling Douglas over Gordon, that's not a bad idea to play it a little safe), Murray, and Hill. Morris for either of those last two is defensible, though.

Since I don't think Julio Jones is starting, should I slot in Mike Wallace or Martavis Bryant instead? I'm up 10 in the second week of my playoff game.

EDIT: I also need a pickup to replace Ryan Mathews, who also looks like will be sitting this week out. Darren McFadden or Pierre Thomas? I could also grab James Starks or someone like Cunningham, Sankey, Taliaferro, Gray, Hyde, etc.

Doug Baldwin vs. SF

Seattle probably won't be throwing much, Harvin is questionable, Douglas should get looks with Jones not playing, and Aiken is facing the Jags. Thoughts?

In that case, I think I'd go with Senior, I think Wallace will be stranded on Revis Island, and Gordon is facing a tough pass D with a new QB. Torrey's probably going to be out or limited and I'd expect SSS to pick up the slack.

OK, having a bit of last minute waffling. ESPN standard, second round of the playoffs.

Pick 2 (standard scoring):

Fred Jackson @ GB
Jeremy Hill @ CLE
Kelvin Benjamin vs TB.

Leaning Benjamin and Jackson, though Benjamin has had a lot of games where he gets 20 yards and a TD, so without the TD it can be kind of risky. Jackson will get work even if they are down a lot, not sure how much work Hill will get.

It's hard to think about taking Green or Gordon out of the lineup but Green has the worst matchup of the four and Gordon's offense is a big question mark this week.

TEs are a total crapshoot this season. That said, which one of these guys is least like to give me 0 points this week.


Jason Witten @ Phi
Larry Donnell v. Was


Thoughts:

Pro Donnell:
Donnell is ranked higher by ~3 spots on FantasyPros.
Last game against Washington, Donnell put up 3 TDs. (But this was before the OBJ)
A few weeks ago, v. Phi, Witten put up a single catch for .8 points.

Pro Witten:
The NYG/WAS game has an o/u of ~42 points whereas the DAL/PHI game is supposed to be ~54. Likely more scoring opportunities.

Currently leaning towards Donnell. Could also pick up Cameron who is a FA.

Definitely Giants. You don't start the defense playing against GB, it's as simple as that imo.

Leaning Benjamin and Jackson, though Benjamin has had a lot of games where he gets 20 yards and a TD, so without the TD it can be kind of risky. Jackson will get work even if they are down a lot, not sure how much work Hill will get.

Any PPR? I'd probably lean Hill over Jackson if it's standard, but definitely Jackson if PPR. I'd start Benjamin too.

Hmmm. I could not bring myself to sit Rodgers, but Ben @ Atlanta is really nice. Ben struggled @ NYJ and @ Ten recently, and had a lot of poorer weeks early in the year, whereas Rodgers has almost not had a single bad week. Start Rodgers imo.

A.J. Green has a decent chance at getting shut down again, so is a little risky. I still don't think I would sit him for Gordon, but I'd think about it!

I've gotten burned by all of them in the past, but Edelman and Stills are getting the attempts, Jackson and Watkins are feast or famine and I'm not sold on Cincy doing well against that lovely Cleveland run defense. b
