Rogers in on a bye so I'm having to start Andy Dalton and am going up against Luck. In my flex position, should I start Jermaine Gresham (so I could get credit for a Dalton-Gresham TD) or start Donte Moncreif who went off last week and could discredit a potential Luck TD. I also start TY Hilton, so by having Hilton and Moncrief for me could somewhat negate his QB advantage

Are there any better options than those two?

Stop over thinking it and play your best players.

I mean what happens when Luck goes 28-49 386yds 0TDs but QB sneaks it in 3 times while someone you should've started but over thought things goes off on your bench???

Not really. I could see who's out there on waivers but the way our league is, there's slim pickings. My team (not including folks on bye)

QB- dalton
WR- Ty Hilton
WR- Emmanuel sanders
WR- Eddie Royal
RB- lavion bell
RB- Chris ivory
Te- jimmy graham
Flex (WR/RB/te)- jermaine gresham *****
Kicker- gano
Def- minn.

Available bench: zach ertz, Malcolm Floyd, donate Moncrief

Malcolm Floyd would probably be the best option, but my opponent is projected to have a pretty good day, so I wanted to see if there's be any gained advantages by starting Gresham (with dalton at QB) or Moncrief (since opponent is starting Luck)

Thoughts? Tia

Floyd laid an egg last week, but he's still the best option you have there.

Start Floyd. I understand your logic but it ONLY works in a scenario where they throw TDs to your guys. Floyd is still the best WR in Ari and is a better option than Greshem and Moncrief.

My bad, I meant Malcolm Floyd. Not sure why I put Michael.

If that makes any difference

Ugh, looking at your team is why I can't go TE in the first round.

So much faulty logic in your post.

Start your best players period. Disregard his team completely.

List your players and decide who you think will score the most points. Don't decide who to play based on negating his points.

If you think Gresham week score more than moncreif then start Gresham.
