That Vickings D makes me nervous. Should I be starting Cam Newton against the Vikings or Matt Ryan against the Saints in a standard (no ppr) league?

I'm starting Cam this week and I have Big Ben and Derek Carr as backups.

Russell Wilson vs. SF
Matthew Stafford @ GB

I know, start your studs, but I'm really feeling down on Russ, especially with Doug Baldwin's status. I felt like we're looking at some 10-6 slopfest.

I'd probably play Stafford. I fear for Russ's life out there.

Under standard league scoring Matt Ryan is the only QB who has put up more points than Cam this (admittedly short) season. That in conjunction with the defenses is the only reason I'm hesitating.

Sorry I was more or less saying I'm not concerned by matchup regarding Cam. Either one is fine really.

e: also still looking for advice:
.5ppr, need 2 Flex:

ARob vs Balt
Tyrell Williams @IND

Ware vs NYJ
Cobb vs DET
Sims vs LA
Riddick @GB
Tevin Coleman @NO

Bold is my current choice. It's probably more of a request for my last flex since it'll be hard benching ARob even with his slow start, but I'd be open to benching him if I'm missing something matchup wise compared to my bench.

Pick 3:

JMatt
Cobb

1 PPR, 5 pt bonus at 120.

As for right now I have Cobb, Marvin, and Wallace (Blurb said Flacco wants to keep feeding him). Cobb has nice CB matchup and Jordy has been poo poo vs the Lions, and Marvin Jones is cool and good. RIP Keenan, WR Roulette sucks.

It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.
Ok so my 8 team work league is sort of a joke (I had to autodraft and it went WR WR WR before getting a RB... which was Devonta Freeman).

Consequently I need to pick 3 WR out of all these guys I have:

Julio Jones
Brandon Cooks
Doug Baldwin
Jarvis Landry
Mike Wallace
Stefon Diggs
Brandon Marshall
Kelvin Benjamin

I know what you're thinking. You're thinking "trade some of those WR for a RB." Very sensible. I don't think there has been a single trade of consequence in this league, ever, so yeah.

I want to warn you fellers
And tell you one by one
What makes a gallows rope to swing
A woman and a gun

Standard scoring, zero PPR, got a real scraping the bottom of the barrel decision. Do I start Gary Barnidge (away, favorable matchup vs Miami, new QB could mean his dink and dunk style is favored, but he's terrible) or Bennett (Gronk may play, even if he does how many snaps will it be, will Bennett be anything but a run-blocker with a 3rd string QB, or will he build on his good game week 2).

A lot comes down to Gronk's status and it seems like a 50/50 shot of being in 50% of the snaps. Any thoughts?

Do I want to put up Floyd, Baldwin, or Ginn Jr (my league has return yards and he put up 25 points last week, somehow) in my WR 2 spot? Right now I have A Rob in and Crabtree as my flex (McKinnon would be my other flex option) and just need to guess which of the other tree guys might actually get points in PPR this week.

Witten if you need a solid floor.

I have this creeping suspicion that Gronk came back a little early to serve as a decoy. Nothing to back that up though so. :shrug:

Edit: basically, if you could survive a five or six point performance by a tight end this week, start Witten. If you think you're going to need a homerun, start Gronk, although I don't think he's a guarantee.

I started Gronkowski in two leagues because I thought he might catch a short touchdown or something and figured he was a hell of a better bet than Gary Barnidge.
