Jonathon Stewart(hou) or Darren sproles (dal)

Carson Palmer(chi) or Sam Bradford(dal)

Alf/Jstew/Palmer is prob the safe bet for Week 2.

But man, Darren Sproles was so productive with his 25 snaps...I think he gets more looks this week. If I'm going up against a tough matchup then I might roll the dice with Sproles.

I have such a conundrum this week with half my lineup.

QB: Brees
RB1: Peterson
RB2: Woodhead
WR1:
WR2:
TE: Miller
FLEX:
D/ST: Ravens
K: McManus

Options for WRs and FLEX:

Emmanuel Sanders (Thu) @ KC
Steve Smith Sr. @ Oak
Terrance Williams @ Philly
John Brown @ Chi

T.J. Yeldon vs. Mia
Rashad Jennings vs. ATL
Chris Johnson @ Chi

I also have Delanie Walker @ Cle on my bench, but I'm wary of him this week with his wrist injury.

It's one of those odd occurrences where pretty much all of your options have good matchups and high upside. Any advice would be appreciated.

Lost Dez for the time being... picked up James Jones on waivers... have Keenan Allen that I'm starting for sure, but need to pick two of the following three WR:

James Jones vs. Seattle
Doug Baldwin @ Green Bay
Eric Decker @ Indy

Notes: 1 PPR, I have Rodgers as my QB.

I would go James Jones purely for the upside. Rodgers loves him in the red zone, and he isn't going to draw Sherman's coverage.

Definitely would NOT go with Baldwin.

I don't know much about Indy's secondary. Are they stout? If not, Decker might be worth a look if you assume that the Jets are going to have to throw a lot to keep up with Indy.

I like the Rodgers-Jones connection out of those three options the most, but Decker has more value for PPR.

Ride the hot hand with Jones and Decker is what I'd suggest, but it's not a pretty bunch to choose from.

*4pt passing TD

Brady @ BUF
Tannehil @ JAX

*standard scoring

Walker @ CLE
Green @ CIN
Cook @ WAS

Got a couple questions:

1st league - 12 team PPR:

Flex:

Pierre Garçon vs. STL
Roddy White @NYG

2nd league - 10 team standard

Pick 2 (1 for WR3, 1 for Flex)

Terrance Williams @ PHI
Amari Cooper vs BAL
Roddy White @ NYG
Donte Moncrief vs NYJ
Steve Smith Sr.@ OAK
