Let’s keep The Who to Start questions contained within a single thread.

Remember if you answer other questions, you’re more likely to get your own answered

Please post league scoring (Standard, PPR, etc), Full player names (first and last), player matchups (Foles vs ATL), and any other pertinent info

Pick one RB and one WR to start in PPR:

Kenyan Drake vs TEN
James Conner @ CLE

Emmanuel Sanders vs SEA
Chris Godwin @ NO
D.J. Moore vs DAL

Conner - Cleveland has a good Rush D, but there’s too much uncertainty with Drake/Gore to not take Conner. Plus the Dolphins are just bad.

Moore.

Doug Baldwin or E sanders PPR?

part of me thinks Sanders eats against this revamped Sesttle secondary, and Baldwin is up against Chris Harris.

I would go Sanders just to see how Baldwin looks this week.

Saw a good stat yesterday. RBs are 75% more productive when their team is favored in a matchup than when they are the underdog. Conner is the heavy favorite in that game, give me the RB that will be burning clock late in the game

WR: Sanders pretty easily. He’s looking improved this year from his injuries, Case Keenum is a better QB, and Seattle isn’t the Legion of Boom anymore. Plus more volume than those two others

I'd go Sanders. I like Baldwin but I'm iffy on the knee so would take a wait-and-see approach. I like Sanders' matchup better as well.

Sanders. New running focus from Seahawks, plus that knee is scaring me on Baldwin. I rarely want to play a player when he and everyone else knows he’s injured and playing through it

Have to choose a WR2 (1 pt PPR): Garcon, Josh Gordon, Randall Cobb

And a flex (same league) between Garcon, Josh Gordon, Hyde, Peyton Barber, Cobb

PPR
T. Coleman vs Phi tonight - Flex
W. Fuller - Flex

Fuller is currently listed as questionable but seems that he will be good to go. Also have D. Hopkins in WR1 slot.

That's a tough one, lol. I think I would lean Gillislee. He's going to get more touches than Stills, IMO. Ideally, Saints go up big early and Sean P is in a position to rest AK41 a little. Neck and neck for me though on that one.


Standard, Pick 2

Adam Thielen v 49ers
Golden Tate v Jets
Devin Funchess v Cowboys (Also have Cam and CMC starting)
Doug Baldwin @ Broncos

Don’t play Coleman in your flex since it’s thursday if you use him put him in rb1

He is practicing in full. He’s also said his knee won’t recover anymore until the season is over, and he’ll have to play with it at less than 100% all season. That’s not a very encouraging sign

I'm a little worried about my squad here. Please help.

14 Team 1 PPR

RB: Pick 2-3

Joe Mixon @ Indy
Saquon Barkley vs. Jacksonville
Jamaal Williams vs. Chicago

WR/TE: Pick 2 if you picked 3 RBS. Pick 3 if you picked 2 RBS.

Robert Woods @ Oakland
Doug Baldwin @ Denver
Zach Ertz vs. ATL
Delanie Walkder @ Miami
Nelson Agholor vs. ATL
Christian Kirk vs. Washington
Calvin Ridley @ Philadelphia

Thanks for the help
