Started off rough but now on a 6 game win streak and need to continue if I'm gonna make the playoffs. Pick 3 of these WRs:

Alshon Jeffrey
Mike Evans
Sammy Watkins
Emmanuel Sanders
Josh Gordon

Right now Jeffrey and Evans seem like locks. Sanders has been my horse all season, but I have no idea if he's gonna get the usual targets this week with the concussion. Sammy has torched the Jets before, and I am trying to temper my expectations for Gordon.

What to do?

Matchups.

Gordon is locked in.

If Sanders plays he's locked in.

Flip a coin between Evans/Jeffery

Ugh, call me old school but I just don't see Gordon coming in and lighting the world on fire. That takes time and reps.

I don't see how you sit Jeffrey or Evans for him. I'm mainly trying to figure out Sanders or Gordon right now with Sammy really just being a luxury (or a nut punch when he goes off while being on my bench).

Wish people in my league made trades cause all these WRs are driving me crazy each week setting my lineup.

Gordon plays the worse secondary possibly ever.

I have Jeffery, Gordon, and Sanders and after much research I've decided it's 1. Jeffery 2. Gordon 3. Sanders. Where Evans and Watkins fit in there I couldn't tell you.

I'd probably agree with that ranking of the three you mentioned. I just think Evans has to be in there somewhere and might be above both Jordon and Sanders.

Ugh, I know this decision is gonna be massive.

Gordon is matching up against Desmond Trufant who is widely considering a top or near top corner.

Sanders is a lock. #4 WR this season. Evans is the #1 WR by far the last three weeks.

I would probably go with Sanders, Jeffery, and Gordon, but it is hard to sit Evans.

Then again, Evans is locked in with McCown and the Bucs run the least in the league. Maybe bench Jeffery, but he had like 16 targets last week.

Yea I think the safe play is to bench Gordo for Evans, Sanders and Jeffrey, but I've been waiting all season to unleash the Kracken so it would suck benching him now.

Sanders is a stud, but I feel game planning is huge for a Peyton team so I could see him having a limited role. Jeffrey is always frustrating because the Bears in general are all bipolar.

Ugh.

You are overthinking this, this is a good problem to have.

If FootballNostradamus can't make a decision what chance do any of us have?
