Andre (If playing)
Gordon (He proved he can do okay with Hoyer starting)
Hartline (T. Hill is doing alright and Hartline has more targets than Wallace)
Williams (If Andre isn't playing)
Clay over Miller but it's a coinflip man. I don't really feel good about either of them tbh. I'd check waiver wire for whatever will fit in your flex and look at match-ups.
New dilemma pending deal: Standard Scoring 0PPR 10 man
FLEX: MJD, Miller or whatever WR not chosen
WR (Only 1): Wayne vs JAX, A. Brown vs MIN, J. Gordon vs CIN,

Wayne or Brown. I would probably lean Brown though because I'd be worried they wouldn't keep Wayne in most of the game with how many points they'll probably rack up. But I think Wayne is better than MJD or Miller, so I'd roll with them both.

You would probably want to start the example of Consistency in Matty Ice plus the Pats secondary is rather bleh. Rivers is more of a gamble bet than anything.

Colts, good luck.
Gordon(check injury status), Hartline, Jeffrey & Miller, good luck.
Brown, Miller, MJD, Gordon in that order for me, good luck. If "0PPR" means its ppr, might bump Gordon but check his status.
Matty Ice, good luck.

Romo should rack up points trying to keep pace with Denver. Bradford may have a good day against a terrible Jags D but Fisher likes to play defense and control the clock.
Start Romo.

Cook, MJD and Richardson. The rams defense blows this year, and ho ho ho, so does the Jaguars. Ryan Mathews is barely rosterable, much less a start. I might see if Woodhead was on the waiver wire in your case.
0 PPR, standard scoring:
MJD @ STL
Josh Gordon vs Balt
pick one:
Tannehill vs Balt
Pryor vs SD
Manning vs Philly?

I would have to go with Bradford. Every QB has had a field day playing the Jags and the Rams really need to win and with no run game they will rack up the points
Bennett, Matthews are more consistant scorers
Gordon and Manning (Philly has a bad D)

Matt Ryan against the Jets or Michael Vick against the Giants ?!
Flex spot -
Jacquizz Rodgers Vs Jets
Andre Ellington Vs Carolina
Rashad Jennings Vs San Diego (with McFadden & Reece likely out in front of him)
Donnie Avery Vs the Tinbreds.
Bye Weeks have me all bent outa shape.

Jets have a top ten pass defense, the Giants can't stop anything. I would play the matchup and go with Vick.
As for the flex spot none of them really look like great options. Assuming DMC and Reece are out, I would go with Jennings

Vick(by a nose) & Jennings for me, with Quizz next highest. Good luck.
Thanks , both of you confirmed what I was thinking ....
This is my wife's FF team which she asks me who to play most of the time, she did real well early in the draft but the bench was really hurting and with three guy's on bye weeks , its a hot mess.
I picked up Jennings with the thought of starting him if DMC & Reece are out , if he doesn't get the start I can go with one of Jacquizz Rodgers , Coby Fleener or Donnie Avery at the Flex.
Next week is tough for me. Yahoo standard scoring league:
WR (pick 3 out of 5):
D. Thomas vs. JAX (sure starter)
L. Fitzgerald vs. SF (tough defense...)
A. Brown vs. NYJ
J. Blackmon vs. DEN (hopefully with Henne as QB)
D. Hopkins vs. STL (hopefully with somebody else at QB...)
HB (pick 2 out of 3):
R. Rice vs. GB
D. Murray vs. WAS
A. Morris vs DAL

I lost Julio. Anywho, I'm concerned about starting defenses this week.
I have Carolina's defense, but I'm going to either take the Rams against us or the Eagles against Tampa Bay. Any other defense suggestions based on matchups?

I wouldn't trust the Eagles defense those guys are pitiful. The Jets (Steelers are bad on offense this year), Panthers, Rams/Houston, and possibly the Cardinals (Kaep regression + Patrick Peterson on ST's and defense) seem to have favorable match-ups and are probably on the waiver wire.
Anyone can help me out here? My girlfriend is probably gonna give birth to my first child this weekend, so I won`t have the mind to change my lineup later...

Congrats man that's awesome!
I don't think you can really miss on your running backs. Those are 3 good players with 3 good matchups but I would definitely have Murray in there.
At WR, definitely Thomas. I would also start Blackmon as Gabbo isn't gonna play and JAX is gonna have to throw the ball to keep up. For the third slot I would roll with Brown, he's on pace for a monster season.

PPR? Woodhead. Matthews is a scrub and woodhead has outplayed him both in running and catching out of the backfield.

MSR, that's what I figured.
Repped.
Just wanted to double check. He's the other guy tied for first in this league so I wanted to make sure I got a second opinion.

Weird. I have both Woodhead and Richardson in, but no ppr. The other guy has Gates I think. Around the same scores, so I'll be fine there. I would go with Woodhead if I can only have one. Richardson has been kinda sucky, but I did get him second round so there was potential value.
In another league I'm up by 10 but all my players have played. He's got Gates. Chances on that? If Gates has a bad to okay game I think I should be fine.

Ugh, my first time playing fantasy this year as the GM for my wife's team because she was sucking. She traded our #1 RB Doug Martin for CJ Spiller. I'm pissed but just thought I'd see if anyone can back me up on how terrible that decision was or if I'm just being a douche.

Women man...
The number one team in one of my leagues just lost Julio Jones last week, so I was happy to see that he will be hurting at WR. He hadn't made a transaction yet, so he was 1 on the waiver wire. The only girl in our league, who doesn't know a lot about this stuff, decided to drop Pierre Garcon because he was on a bye week. So of course he picked Garcon up and doesn't miss a beat... :mariopalm:

She's been cursed this year, also has Tom Brady, Roddy White, Texans defense, Martin. But I think Martin has a lot more left than Spiller does.
Appreciate you guy's feedback. I've never done fantasy because I knew I'd get too much into it. Now that I'm hooked I don't have a team because my wife went Jerry Jones and fired me so I gotta wait til next year.
