Standard scoring league, need to pick one for my flex spot:

Frank Gore vs. Buf
Chris Ivory vs Cle
Ameer Abdullah vs SD
Anquan Boldin vs. Min
Stevie Johnson vs. Detroit

Currently have Gore in there

I'd go Ivory.

e: Anyone have thoughts on mine?

12 teams, standard scoring, no PPR.

Need a flex.

TJ Yeldon vs Carolina
Alfred Blue vs KC
Stevie Johnson vs Det
Charles Johnson @ SF
Kendall Wright @ TB

I asked this one earlier and temporarily settled on Charles Johnson. But now I'm down big because I'm facing Gronk, and Lardarius Green likely isn't playing. Is Stevie the better play now?

Let's pick my starters. This is formatted with current starting positions and then bench.

league 1 (.25 ppr, 6 for all tds, points for big plays and big days ie 40+ yd plays, breaking 100yds 200 yds etc). I'm basically debating who to flex here since I think I have several options.

Stafford
D. Thomas, Beckham
Gordon, Hyde
Witten
FLEX: S. Smith

Bench: A Foster, Garcon, Tevin Coleman, D.G Beckham, B. Coleman, Fleener.

League 2. Standard scoring 6 all TDs. WR depth is butt right now. It's either Bernard or Cunningham. I'm kind of leaning towards Cunningham since I think he's a3 down back until Mason or Gurley return from injury.

Ben
Cobb, Tate, Wheaton
Lacy, Gore
Witten
FLEX: Bernard

Bench:A foster, Stafford, Lafell, Doresett,Benny Cunningham

Here's the FA list for WRs currently... it's pretty bad. Sanu is the only one on there I think worth anything more than a WR4 now. I'm thinking he has to be an upgrade over Dorsett probably, who is the WR3? Cecil Shorts might be the only other but I think that's only in PPR.

White is the safer play I think. We don't even know 100% what Abdullah's role is. He's technically 3rd on the depth chart.

I think he will quickly rise to action but week 1 I would go for the safer play.

This is a tough one. I feel really dirty about it, but I think I'd personally go with Ivory, partially due to the fact that I'm worried about Buffalo's D. Aside from Hopkins, who are your other WR/RBs that you can't start both of these guys?

I have Dez and AD as my WR/RB1, but now that you mention it I think I'll slot Ivory in over Gore who also has the Buffalo D problem.

Stressing over starters in a 10-team league is some real first world problems poo poo

^^ Between the supposed 'pitch count' for Gore and the matchup with Buffalo's D I don't like him at all this week. I'd go Ivory for sure.

I'd maybe go with Donnell. Basically just have to guess which of them will end up with a TD, and I like that Cowboys/Giants game as a high scoring matchup.

Yeah this makes sense, looking for the higher floor this week anyway since my opponent has a couple guys out. Thanks for the input!

.1 per yard, 6 for TD

In a tough spot with three rookie running backs:

Melvin Gordon v Detriot
TJ Yeldon v Carolina
Ameer Abdullah @ San Diego

Gordon and Yeldon play two of the top lines in football last year and Ameer Abdullah is a second stringer behind Joique Bell. What would some of you do? I'm leaning more towards Abdullah right now with the hope of him doing some receiving out of the backfield.

Hyde for both of these imo. I doubt SF gets blown out by MIN, as bad as they are, so Hyde shuld be playing all day against a D that's not good vs the run. Jeffery is hobbled, Cooper is more of a gamble.

Stick with Smith in league 1. I'd start Benny Cunningham over Gio in league 2. I wouldn't drop anyone for any of those WRs. You don't need to worry about it this week, so deal with it later.

I think you're right in thinking that Smith and Cunningham are your best flex plays here.

Next time I'd say don't post such a wall of information in Sit/Start. It reduces the chance anyone will read it all and answer. If Flex is your problem, just ask about your Flex options.

I might lean towards Crowell then actually. I think the Cards will have their pass totals spread out among those three this year.

Yeah I don't need it this week, but I'm trying to get the FA for free while I still can. Hopefully Cunningham goes off and I can dangle him for another WR since Foster/GIo can carry my flex easily.
