Romo. Pains me to say this, but Philly's secondary looked nothing like their preseason form. Julio was shredding Maxwell and even without Dez, Romo should succeed through the air.
Brees is a must-start Week 2. He's my top fantasy QB this weekend. Tampa's secondary is food and New Orleans should score a lot through the air, specifically the Brees to Cooks connection.
Tanny. Favorable match-up and he enjoys a plethora of offensive weapons.
Stafford. Teddy didn't receive ideal protection against SF and admitted being overly anxious. I'm taking a wait-and-see approach with Bridgewater and the Vikes.
He's actually J-Ville's 3rd best WR. Hurns beat him out for the second spot and has developed chemistry with Bortles. Makes Lee a moderately deep flier.
Smitty and Brown definitely start for me. Brown is Carson's best/favorite WR. Smitty will rebound from a lackluster Week 1. Saw 130+ targets last year, and Baltimore is lacking edge weapons with Torrey gone and Perriman hurt.
Last spot I'd decide between Woodhead and Olsen. Olsen is Cam's best and only weapon with Benjamin hurt. Woody's Week 1 is a little fluky, given the two unexpected TD. But Woodhead is certainly trusted more than Gordon and catching passes is no fluke.
I'd give Olsen the slight edge for your last spot. I mean he saw 120+ targets last season, with Benjamin healthy and playing. Olsen's had 5+ TD per season since 2008.
Tanny. Week 1 for Mariota was a bit fluky given Tampa's poor secondary and breakdowns in coverage.
How wasn't he drafted? Went top 75 in most of my leagues with optimistic team owners.
Randle.
Gordon. Lesser of two evils. Don't love your two choices and hope it's for a Flex spot.
West is the safer play. He has a legitimate chance to be Tennessee's starter given Cobb's injury and Sankey's unreliability. But your question is upside and the answer's Street. Could benefit from Dez's injury, especially if he doesn't return this season. Street is a bigger receiver from Pitt, Dallas coaches raved about him this past off-season. With added attention to Williams, Witten, and Beasley, Street may be the guy to step up if he can develop chemistry with Romo.

He actually was drafted (few picks before I planned on taking him), but surprisingly dropped after week 1. That's when I noticed and put the waiver in right away. But I'm in 1st place and had the first overall pick, so my chances were pretty slim.

Evans and Cobb. Check prior to kickoff, Lovie seems more hesitant than Evans whether he'll play.
Gore.
Matty Ice. Shaping up to potentially be a top-5 fantasy QB in Week 2.
I'd decide between Abdullah and Tate. 140+ targets last year makes Tate the safer play, comfortably rapport with Stafford.
Week 2, I'm taking a risk with Abdullah. Slowly taking reps and respect from Bell. Crazy cutback ability, more than adequate pass-catcher. Grabbed four balls Week 1.
Yeldon just over Deck.
Charles Johnson. Clicked with Teddy in preseason and gotta hope/bet Bridgewater looks Johnson's way more than Wallace, like he didn't do in Week 1.
Agholor.
Ingram's a must-start. That's no question. He's a top-8 fantasy RB in Week 2 vs. Bucs.
Second spot goes to Sankey slightly. Buffalo is a tough match-up for Blount and he's just returning from suspension, with Lewis over the shoulder. Sankey surprised in Week 1, but I'd temper expectations. He's not going to rip 6 YPC and nab two TD weekly.

That's all i can work with this week until Le'Veon comes back in week 3 :\
Lamar Miller is my other starting RB. I have Arian Foster as well so I hope he comes back in week 3 since he's already practicing

I like Romo in a potential shootout
if your league is standard scoring: Blount
PPR: Murray

Here's to hoping John Brown, Brandon Coleman and David Johnson break out this year. They're my main bench players

They're basically already breaking out as we speak. I think David Johnson has a chance to do big things.

Got Doug Martin in the flex
Should I go with Melvin Gordon or David Johnson? I know Chris Johnson is starting but dude is a bum

A-Rob.
Cooper.
Stevie J.
Romo.
Latavius Murray.
Gordon.
I'm very close to recommending Ertz, think he has a big game hosting Dallas if the groin holds up. But Murray is my ultimate choice, Baltimore may stymie the run game, however, Murray did nab 7 receptions as a check-down option last week.
Woodhead is my third favorite option, and I didn't give much pause to starting Sankey over the other three players.

CJ2K.
Not even close to considering that deal. Ellington alone had more preseason ADP value than Martin. Yes, I know Andre got hurt already but his remaining value coupled with Maclin as a worst case WR3/Flex forces me to say no deal.
A-Rob.

Lucky if you can get Woody for Wheaton. I wouldn't trade away V-Jax for Woody straight up, unless it's PPR and you're desperate for a RB2/RB3 option.
CJ2K.
Yes, I would. Just make sure you have a viable TE starter once Gronk departs.

Woody. Mathews is good insurance for Murray owners, but he has his own injury concerns. Woodhead racks up tons of receptions, and Gordon hasn't done anything to steal the show for SD.
If I had to choose, Crabby.
I wouldn't, especially because Murray can be an effective check-down pass-catcher but do what you feel.
Friday setbacks are extremely worrisome. Hammy and a calf that Jeffery is battling. I would slot Williams for Jeffery, I find it hard to believe Alshon plays.
No, no, no. Forsett is a borderline top-10 fantasy back in Week 2. He runs behind perhaps the second best OL in the NFL.
You win this trade significantly if your league plays a PPR format. Plus Stewart has more injury concerns than Gore moving forward, even in standard leagues.

Definitely not CJ2K of the three. Do you play PPR? My recommendation is Gore over Murray.
