I have some other decent options and certainly can't afford another goose egg, but if he says he's playing is it a no brainer?

If he plays, you start him.

The guy I'm playing against started Roddy White so I guess that makes it a bit easier. AJ Green is the best player on my team outside of Peyton so it's a pretty simple decision. Just wanted to know what other owners are thinking.

Did you not learn from last week's Brandon Marshall fiasco? I'm not saying it's a no brainer, but if AJ is "60% that's still better than 100% from every WR2 or WR3 you could put in for him."

I understand your point and for wrs I think it mostly holds true. Rbs are much more dependent on their matchups, but you pretty much know what you are going to get out of top wrs.

I have him in bout 80% of my leagues and I have this dilemma too. I hate it and my gut says not to, but if he's active in real life he's active on my fantasy roster. I'm not concerned about a 60% healthy Green, because as another poster said, that's better than most WR2s you can have, and I agree. I'm worried he aggravate that toe again and comes out in the 1st quarter putting up Another goose egg and cause further damage.

But I trust the coaches, players and medical staff more than myself. If they say he's good to go, I believe them. He's too valuable of a player to risk further injury so I feel they'd be cautious with him.

I'm going to start him. I'm pretty nervous about it though. I have Edelman on my bench and he's been solid, but in sticking with my stud.

I don't own him but if he plays you have to start him. If I did own him it would make it easier if they just ruled him inactive because from what they were explaining on NFL network a couple of days ago is that that particular injury would definitely affect his first step quickness off the line which is Green's bread and butter. But, as I said before, you have to start him if he's active because even not at 100% he's got plenty upside and is still likely as good or better than just about anyone who you'd replace him with off your bench.
