    I'm in a 16 team league that starts 3 receivers:

    Greg Little tonight or Manningham (if healthy) on Sunday?

    I'd go with Little if I had no other option. Are you locked into using one of those two guys or can you scoop up a guy off the wire?

    Id say Dustin Keller. The Chiefs SUCK at covering the TE and Keller should get plenty of targets after a bad week. I like Austin alot but I dont think they will play him to the max.

    Just my gut instinct.

    PPR league or Standard. Makes a huge difference.

    If PPR Helu. If Standard Matthews.

    Well at WR Boldin, easily. How many RBs can I choose from that group?

    If one: AP, Suh and Fairley could both be out. Thats huge. And he is AP

    If two: AP and R.Bush. I dont know what it is but Bush has been ALOT better and Phi sucks against the run.

    If three: AP, R. Bush, and Sproles. All can have big days IMO. But to be honest any of them can have a good game.

    PPR. Helu was good last 2 weeks but I don't trust Shanahan. This is the play offs for my league and I am being extra cautious . Thanks for the response btw

    Need to pick two RBs in a standard league:

    Lynch (vs. STL)
    Greene (vs. KC)
    Reggie Bush (vs. PHI)
    Michael Bush (@ GB)

    I'd say Lynch is a must-start based on his current hot streak and match-up, so it's mostly between the other three. I'm kind of reluctant on Michael Bush since it's very likely that the Raiders could fall behind early and be relying more on the pass. Thoughts?

    Thanks Johnny. Even Warren Sapp said to start Keller.

    Going with my gut. Starting Miles Austin..

    Mike Williams or D Bowe.

    I feel like D Bowe could get a small boost if Orton starts. Plus they are obviously going to be passing all day.

    I'd go with Marshall.

    Pick one RB for my second RB spot (.5 ppr, 5 point bonus at 100 yards)
    Frank Gore vs. Pitt
    Kevin Smith vs. Oak
    Ryan Grant vs. KC

    Flex spot:
    Any of the above OR Laurent Robinson vs. TB

    Gore has been great for me all year, but the matchup is killer. Smith and Grant both have good matchups, but I can't pull the trigger one way or the either. Robinson has also been great, but don't think Romo will be throwing all game this week.

    Leaning towards benching Robinson and starting two of Gore, Smith, and Grant.
