WR
10 yds/pt, 6 pts/RecTD, non-PPR league
Wes Welker (if healthy) vs. Atl
or
Mario Manningham vs. TB

Hit the waiver wire for Manningham as a future bye week play, but the matchup vs. TB is almost too much to resist considering his numbers to date. For the sake of argument, my other starters at WR are Roddy White and DeSean Jackson.

I'm leaning towards Wes Welker at the moment, but I'm probably going to debate this one the rest of the week.

Welker comes back, you play him. LOL @ the thought of starting Manningham over him.

Torry Holt

it's not that easy. Manningham has been Manning's favorite target and they've been airing it out so far in this young season. Also, TB's pass defense is ranked either the worst or the 2nd worst when using standard or sabermetric stats.

I think Knox is going to return punts instead of Hester.

Alright, here's my debacle... My four receivers are below

Roddy White
TJ Houshmandzadeh
DeSean Jackson
Ted Ginn Jr.

Normally I'd play the top 3 guys but Jackson has been hurt all week for one (although he's probably going to play, hopefully). And TJ might not have Hasselbeck this week. Do I put Ginn in for one of those guys this week? He's been getting thrown to a lot thus far...

Thanks in advance!

Matt Forte @ Seattle
Frank Gore @ Minnesota
Ryan Grant @ St. Louis

I would most definitely. Schaub will throw a few more interceptions and the Chargers aren't able to run anything so all HB points are coming from passing yards. And Fred Jackson, while dope, will lose most of his carries starting in Week 4 to Marshawn Lynch.

I would say no. Cedric Benson is getting lucky yards thus far. Cincinnati will be a pass first, second, and last option team by week 5.

I'd probably go Schaub over Edwards.

You HAVE to start Forte against Seattle. Chicago won't throw as much as the season progresses.

Ryan Grant at St. Louis would appear to be the better play over Gore. Green Bay should win that one pretty easy which means they'll run the ball more.
