    for my second flex...

    Steven Jackson (I have to start him at some point to justify having him and he is only guaranteed for this week)

    Deangelo Williams (he is Deangelo Williams)

    Lamar Miller (I have no idea)

    Harry Douglas (will he get the targets)

    Jerricho Cotchery (Cam has to throw to someone)

    or

    Ruban Randle (Eli?)

    Steven Jackson. They're line is horrible as is their D. They'll be behind a lot and Matty Ice will have to be a gunslinger. The Pierce talk comes from listening to multiple people on the fantasy football network on Sirius talking about what they're hearing from "sources" from the Ravens coaching staff.

    The way I see it, Matt Ryan being a gunslinger benefits Jackson b/c it improves his touchdown potential in the red zone.

    My WRs are awful. Would anyone start Caldwell over Shorts or Wright?

    heck no... in a PPR I'm going with Wright and if not a PPR I'm going with Shorts.

    Shorts isn't a bad option to have and neither is Wright

    For me it's not even close it's Steven Jackson. DeAngelo Williams is too Deangelo Williams, Lamar Miller is splitting carries like crazy and possibly going to be the backup soon, Harry Douglas will not get a ton of targets with Julio and Roddy healthy, and Cam has Greg Olsen, Kelvin Benjamin to give targets to, before Jerricho.

    We start three and have Garcon as my starter. Not a PPR league either.

    Maybe Major will chime in and I'll do the opposite (we play each other this week).

    I agree with tha Prez 100%. As a matter of fact, I'd probably start Wright regardless of format. He's a target monster, and was considered to be one of those "extremely unlucky" players last year with regards to his low TD total.

    You disagree that Matt Ryan's gunslinging will benefit Jackson by giving him greater touchdown potential?

    Why is it pointless to hear different opinions, especially when they have logical reasoning?

    I would try to package 2 for one to upgrade at receiver.. Maybe Mike Wallace and Pierce for a WR.. if not then I would drop Bennett.. Definitely keep Rivers.

    Matthew Berry thinks Pierre Thomas will catch 100 balls this year.

    Take that as you will.

    That'll be way more than Patterson's overrated ass.

    I don't like Patterson's ADP at all, I think you can find similar value with Mike Wallace, Julian Edelman, Kendall Wright and Torrey Smith.

    For my ten team league tonight, I'm drafting 8th. Im targeting Calvin/Dez. An i crazy considering the wr depth and is any rb truly worthy of a late 1st early 2nd selection?

    Yes! He will likely be there in the second. And if not, Julio or someone else comparable will be. This year is your choice between a big 3. Peterson, McCoy, Charles. My personal favorite is McCoy.
