re: The Official Weekly Projections/Rankings Thread ® ***WHO TO START?***

I would go with Tate and Cooks. I'm not so sure OBJ will get enough targets against SEA. SEA is back to their running ways, and doesn't bode well for garbage time for the NYG. And I have no idea why the hell Eli kept targeting Parker and Reuben almost 9/10 targets until it was a complete blowout.

DET vs MIA should be a good one. Mega will be taking on double coverage again, and DET will have to throw to Tate too to keep in it. Not sure MIA will be able to quicken the clock as much with Miller either against a stout DET D line.

Cooks is at home, and we all know the Saints turn into a different team inside the Superdome.

12 team standard 3-6 (I HAVE to win out to make it and I'm facing a super team this week)

Doublechecking with the masses on my decision making...

QB: Sanchez v CAR
RB1: Forte @GB
RB2: LBell @NYJ
WR1: Green v CLE (Haden)
WR2: Julio @TB (is he going to make a comeback?)
TE: Rivera v DEN
FX: MBryant @NYJ
D: Steelers @NYJ
K: Suisham @NYJ

Evans v ATL (McCown, strangely I think he does well...)
Kelce @BUF (tough TE D...)
Mason @ARI (I don't think so)
Sims v ATL
OBJ @SEA

Oh and waiver wire has Orton v KC, McCown v ATL, Mett @BAL, Alex Smith @BUF, Bortles v DAL, Vick v PIT

It's a divisional game so everything goes a bit haywire as evidenced between SF v StL this past Sunday. On paper, Palmer should have a good day throwing (Fitz, Floyd, Ellington, Brown >>> Crab, Boldin, Vernon, Gore). He's been rarely sacked or hit with a great offensive line too. Rams strength is its run D and ARI can throw all day unlike SEA/SF.

I can't quite place my finger on how awesome MIA defense is or how bad the Chargers are in free fall with Oliver being overworked like a 24/7 textile factory worker/bad oline play.

Hunter vs Baltimore or Boldin vs New Orleans

I'd go Boldin vs New Orleans

Odell vs Ari or Allen Robinson vs DAL? PPR

0.5 PPR

Donnell vs Seattle OR
Walker vs Baltimore

Everything points to Donnell b/c Seattle has been horrible against the TE.

Flex Play: Standard Scoring

Brandin Cooks

Brandon LaFell

Fred Jackson

They're both pretty similar. It's kind of impressive how SJax is producing behind such a terrible line (albeit against TB once). He should be able to do a great job once again against a reeling Carolina (they were pretty "effective" against PHI though, who barely ran [probably giving Sanchez reps to get comfortable]).

West ran well against a similarly reeling CIN defense without it's playmaker Vontaze. He is in a true RBBC, and that's a problem... But Houston's run defense hasn't been anything to holler about. Might their defense take on a even meaner attitude with Clowney back?

I'd actually go with SJax for the 2nd week in a row.

12 Team PPR; Choose 2:
Mike Evans @ Washington
Desean Jackson vs Tampa
Ahmad Bradshaw vs NE

Both Evans and Jackson are listed as "must starts" but Bradshaw has been a very consistent/beastly Flex play. My other WR is Demariyus Thomas and I have Lynch and Ellington(who are both banged up but still studs).

Any changes needed? .5 ppr

My only thought would be West over Mathews.

Looks good to me though.

Start Hill.

OK here's my delimma - standard scoring, non-PPR, 2RB, 2WR, 1Flex:
RB
J Charles @ Oak
M Forte vs TB
J Forsett @ NO

WR
AJ Green @ Hou
Dez Bryant @ NYG
J Gordon @ Atl

Basically comes down to this, would you start Gordon on his first week back over any of the other 5?
