Need help deciding on WRs/flex (should I bench AJ Green?)

PPR

My options:

AJ Green @ Ari
Alshon Jeffery vs Den
Sammy Watkins @ NE
Jonathan Stewart vs Wsh
Karlos Williams @ NE (not really considering him though)


So I need to pick 3 of these (at least 2 WRs) and I'm having trouble.

Jeffery and Watkins had horrible games last week but Watkins still had a decent amount of targets and he has a good matchup this week. Jeffery has a bad matchup but I still feel uneasy about sitting him considering he has put up great numbers in all the other games he's played in.

AJ green also has a tough matchup and has been underwhelming in all but two games this year. He had 44 week 3 at Baltimore and had 28 week 8 at Pit. Other than those two weeks, he hasn't scored more than 15 points this season. I know, start your studs. But he hasn't been much of a stud this year. Mainly just meh.

Stewart has a decent matchup and has been solid. But he doesn't get a ton of yards (only had over 100 yards rushing once this season) so I'd basically be gambling that he gets a TD.

Any insight/help would be appreciated

does he though? Beckham got loose on Butler once but after that was pretty well held in check.

Through 10 Weeks, A.J. Green now has just three top-24 scoring weeks and has had 25+% of the team targets just once over the past 5 games.


will leave this here

Well, it's at least better than Denver and Arizona, right?

possibly. I don't worry about match ups as much with when you have a guy like cutler that is going to pepper him with targets regardless

I agree. I suppose this last week has made me second guess that thought though.

Very interesting stat. Though as a Green owner, I'm not surprised by that at all. I thought I was getting a steal drafting him at the very end of round 2. But he has been disappointing.

like gyno pointed out, think alshon was a victim of game flow
