    Default Advice on flex starters

    Projected starters in sig.

    Could really use some help.
    Need 2 - Amendola (SF), Britt (Mia), J.Bell (Min), T.Young (Min), E.Sanders (KC)

    -Amendola should return but facing 2nd in pass D. Kinda thinking SF shuts him down, x coverage.
    -Ten playing a top rushing D, so they'll have to throw it this week.
    -J.Bell or T.Young? Either could have a good day or Leshoure or Broyles could too. Either are risky.
    -Sanders replaces Brown, but could still share time with Cotchery. Risky again and could control clock and run, run, run.

    Thoughts?

    SANDERS and BRITT for me.

    Amendola off of an injury vs. SF - No. This is an audition game. You sit him, unless you are in a PPR.

    Bell isn't bad, but he's splitting with ML. After last week, i fully expect Det to air it out. And if you have a Det WR, not named Calvin Johnson, then, SIT HIM (Yoing and Broyles) 'cause Stafford and Johnson have some pent up frustration from being stifled early on in the season.

    As a Steelers fan, i feel pretty good about Sanders having a far greater roll than Cotchery. Sanders vs. a very poor KC defense and Britt vs. Mia D who stops the run. Locker will be back, which is better for Britt. Mia will give CJ2K a hard time, so Ten will have to pass. Furthermore, their D is horrible and they will likely be trailing - they have to pass a ton, imo.

    Sanders is a must. Especially on Monday night you just know Ben will show up vs KC

    After that you kind of have to go Britt because the other options are so mediocre.

    It is a PPR as per signiture. Does that change anything to play Amendola?

    Britt is an absolute must start! My second choice would be Titus Young or Amendola (if ppr). I'm a Steelers fan and can tell you the Sanders is a far better real life wr than he is in fantasy. If it's a keeper league, hold onto Sanders because he will be wallace's replacement.
