Facing Elimination--Who do I play TODAY?

[chewy b.]

I'll be out if I lose this week. I own several potential starters today; who plays; who sits?

 

WR--Calvin Johnson, DeSean Jackson (start 3, also own Welker and Colston)

 

RB--Chris Johnson (start 2, also own Gore, Ryan Grant, and Jamal Lewis)

 

So, would any of these 3 starters get me the jump on winning this week? I have to start at least 1 WR, so I guess Calvin Johnson. I am tempted to also use DeSean Jackson, only because Welker plays Pittsburgh. I think it's hard not to use Chris Johnson, but tell me if I'm wrong. Probably in with a win; definitely out with a loss, so: wise, impartial advise...?

I'd sit Colston against TB

 

And start CJ and Gore, sit Grant and Jamal.

RB - start CJ & Gore

WR - start CJ, Welker and ... tossup between Jackson/Colston, my coin flip came up Colston

[Ponce]

I love CJ today against the lions.

 

I say CJ & Gore

 

I really like DeSean against Arizona today in a shoot-out and like Welker over Colston. I think Calvin DeSean and Welker.

 

Please respond to my similar scenario....http://forums.thehuddle.com/index.php?showtopic=274315

I'll agree withsome of these responces.

 

You must start C.J. and I'm starting Lewis as my flex this week. I do believe they will pound the rock alot this week, go with Lewis as well. I dont like Gore, why? because every west coast team traveling east has done god awful.

 

Start Calvin for sure and Welker. If your in a PPR league Welker is a no brainer. Even if your not, Welker is Cassel's safety blanket, he will get alot of dumpoffs.

After much self-torture, this is the way I see it, as well. What was I thinking, to bench Welker? TB is tough, too, and Colston is still not 100%. With PPR, Welker has been huge for me all year. Thanks for all the replies.
