    In a bit of a bind here. Got these choices for my 2nd WR spot behind AJ Green:

    WR Start 1:
    Mike Wallace
    Dwayne Bowe
    Stevie Johnson

    And then for flex:

    Flex Start 1:
    Stevie Johnson
    Mike Wallace
    Dwayne Bowe
    Peyton Hillis
    Mark Ingram
    Adrian Peterson

    I am leaning towards Wallace for WR, but I'm worried his playing time will be limited with missing camp. I was leaning towards Johnson for the flex until he developed this groin injury which caused him to miss some time this week.

    I've got Wallace myself and I'm starting him even if he does sit out for a few plays. My reasoning is that he's a homerun threat every time he's on the field, so he really only needs 1 big play to get his.

    As for your flex position, I've narrow it down to Stevie Johnson vs D-Bowe.

    Stevie is questionable and is facing Revis. However, he's one of the few receivers (maybe the only) who has actually had success against him. I'd monitor his status and if he's declared inactive I'd go with Bowe.

    Thanks. I totally glossed over the fact that he was facing Revis. That does make me feel a bit better if I end up going with Bowe.

    Colston and Moore. They gonna play?
    BGE vs Ravens or Brown vs Bears - non-PPR. I'm probably going Brown for upside unless someone has some sexy reason why I shouldn't. Or, I could go with Bowe vs Atlanta or Garcon vs NO.

    STD flex spot league 1:
    Michael Bush, Pierre Thomas, or Greg Olsen?

    PPR WR spot league 2:
    Kendall Wright at noon or wait for MNF with Denarius Moore (Rod Streater handcuff)?

    Jennings, Gerhart will have less touches unless AP gets hurt again. I've heard 10-15 carries for AP.

    Colston is questionable, and even if he starts Brees might not even look at him. That being said, I'd go with him over Denarious Moore. He's going to play but will not start.

    I'm starting Benjarvus in one league and Brown in another, so I'm hoping they both have moderate success against really tough Ds.

    I really like Garcon this week. I'm not sure he'll be a stud week-in week-out, but I'm buying into the hype of him being RG3's main man.

    I've got Wright and Streater in a PPR and I ended up going with Stevan Ridley at FLEX. I think its too risky to rely on rookie WRs in Week 1. Just don't know what they are going to do against real coverage.

    In your case, I might lean Streater just because he's starting and Palmer seems to be pretty comfortable throwing to him.

    I don't know why I'm doing this to myself, owning Raider receivers. They are such a toss-up every week. Never know which one is going to beast.

    In a flex situation, a rb has more value than a te. That said, Bush is the guy I would go with. Great matchup, tice has already said that he wants two 1000 yard rushers this year. Thomas doesn't really add much to the saints offense: sproles has the job on lockdown.

    Bush is who I'd pick.

    Standard scoring. Pick one for the flex position:
    Dwayne Bowe
    Darrius Heyward-Bey
    Ben Tate

    Heard Alfred Morris is starting today for the Skins.

    Should I start him over Donald Brown?

    I might go Tate. I think he could end up with 90 yards and a score.
