Who to start at WR?

[2014olympicgold]

I have a muddled WR core with all the same level of talent (minus 1 guy). I can’t figure out who to start this week.
PPR typical league. 3WR, 1Flex.
Julio Jones – Obvious start
Markus Wheation – No2 passing offense, and he’s the WR2 in that system. Everyone will be covering Brown, and Big Ben could be throwing 50 passes.
Davante Adams –WR2 in the high octane offense of GB. Hard to pass up especially vs the Bears.
Sammy Watkins – WR1 in the offense. They’ll eventually have to pass, but with Vantae Davis covering him, that’s a hard matchup.
Larry Fitzgerald – He’s against NO with Palmer throwing again. Eventually may be a starting option, but maybe not yet
Pierre Garcon – With Cousins throwing, and Garcon the more “high target, low yards” player, he may be a nice PPR player
DeVante Parker – not a starter yet for my team.

Now my flex is currently Gore (with CJ Anderson and Latavius Murray as my 2RBs). But Gore is my only option for Flex that’s a RB really.

I currently have Julio Jones, Markus Wheaton, and Davante Adams in my starting lineup.

Personally, that's the lineup I'd go with. Good luck!

I personally like Gore as a flex and Adams as WR2.

My reasoning is Indy will get up and use Gore to kill the clock.

Adams will get lots of targets.

Wheaton - I saw some stat about how Tom Brady and the Pats have never loss to Steelers in Pittsburgh and average beating them by 20 points. Brady enjoys playing in Pitts.

I like Jones, Adams, Watkins and Gore as flex. Watkins is gonna do damage against the terrible Colts D IMO.

The game is in Foxboro

I would prefer Watkins' upside to playing Gore for the flex spot. Indy has already stated that Gore will be limited as they try to keep him prime for a playoff run. Means more carries as well for the other backs as well. Buffalo also has one of the best, if not the best lines in football. They are extremely difficult to run or pass against and the Colts line in mediocre (not great). Lawson and the Williams' boys will be teeing up all day at Luck. At the Ralph, this game is going to be closer than people think. Change to the offensive coordinator could see better looks for Sammy this year and some scheming to get him away from Davis.

I would leave the receivers you listed the same, but switch out at the FLEX.

I'm not as high on Adams as most people. I would let him show me something before I start him. I'd go with Fitz this week.

I like Fitz as well, but with all the hype about Brown I am nervous that he is on a steep decline.

A big positive for Larry is the matchup. NO is terrible stopping the pass, but like you said Larry may not be a big part of it anymore. At least my only immediate question mark is Wheaton and he seems to be a lock to be in my lineup right now.

[Goldendelicious]

I take Adam's upside over Fitz...Fitz may have a little safer floor, but I don't trust him that much anymore. I think he slips to #3 in targets behind Floyd and Brown.

[2014olympicgold]

Well I really messed up every choice so far at the WR position.
Starters:
Wheaton – 10.5
Adams – 9.9
CJ Anderson – 8.8
Gore – 5.1
Watkins – 0

Bench:
L.Murray – 15
Fitz – 14.7
Garcon – 13.4

What happened to Watkins anyway?,

What happened to Watkins anyway?,

Smothered by Davis. He had only 2 targets. Plus Harvin was catching everything, made sense why he had a bad game, but not even 1 catch was a surprise.

[Goldendelicious]

Watkins was only targeted twice. One he tried to make a catch over Davis that nearly resulted in an interception. He then beat Davis cleanly on an out-post in the end zone but was over thrown by Taylor. It was not a surprise Davis smothered im, he is an elite shut down CB. Look for Watkins to have a bounce back game against NE's weaker secondary.
