Question 1- Pick 2 (1 WR, 1 Flex):
WR Options:
a. Steve Smith** (projected 14.8) versus Seattle
b. Cecil Shorts (projected 13.2) versus Kansas City

Flex Options:
a. Giovani Bernard** (projected 14.5) versus Chicago
b. Chris Ivory (projected 13.9) versus Tampa Bay
c. Cecil Shorts (projected 13.2) versus Kansas City

League Details
- ESPN League
- 12 team
- .2 points per reception
- .1 point every RuRe yard
- 6 point TD with scoring bonuses (40-49 yrd TD= +2, 50 or more= +3)
- .2 point every 1 rush attempt
- Start 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex
- Other WR's on team: Brandon Marshall**, DeAndre Hopkins, Kenny Stills
- Other RB's on team: Doug Martin**, MJD**, Chris Ivory, Danny Woodhead, Isaiah Pead, Bernard Pierce

Question 2- Which Tight End:
TE Options:
a. Jared Cook** (projected 13.7) versus Arizona
b. Zach Sudfeld (projected 9.7) versus Buffalo

League Details
- CBS league
- 12 team
- 1 point per reception
- Rec. yard points for TE's is 3pts every 50 yards
- TD points based on TD yards (i.e.1-9 yard TD = 6 pts, 10-39 yard TD=9pts, 40+ yard TD= 12pts)
- Start 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE
- Projected points show fractional scoring, but league does not use fractional Scoring

** Denotes players currently in starting lineup

What does the FB say? Keep with who I currently have starting, or make some changes?

Fellas take notes. OP just showed everyone how to make a who to start post.

As for your questions, I would go:

Shorts at WR
Bernard at Flex
Sudfeld at TE

I dont like Smith (or Cam) this week against Seattle.

Bernard is a risky play, but he's gonna get his chances, even in week 1.

Thanks bro

I've also been having concerns about Smith versus Seattle's secondary but at the same time, I have major issues with the QB in Jacksonville which gives rise to my concerns about Cecil Shorts' production. But then again, the Jags are playing the Chiefs and their Defense isn't exactly stellar.

Also, what went into your decision on Sudfeld over Cook? The fact that its buffalo and that Bradford isn't a great QB?

Both tight ends are unproven. Cook didn't do too much last season, and although people expect him to be a beast this season, I'd like to see it first. Brady uses the frick out of his tight ends and Sud is all he's got this week. Plus, Buffalo's defense sucks.

Gotcha.

Made the following changes:
ESPN- Cecil Shorts at WR and kept Giovani at Flex
CBS- Sudfeld

Thanks everyone for the input and good luck today.

Don't gotta worry too much about Shorts he's all they got so if they pass he's on the receiving end
