0.5 PPR, Pick 1
Dez vs Minnesota (Thurs)
Tyrell Williams vs Tampa
Dontrelle Inman vs Tampa
Start Charles Clay at TE2 or pick up Gresham?
Jordan Matthews @ Cincinnati (5th best vs. WR) or Jonathan Stewart @ Seattle (9th best vs. RB)?
Neither are great options, but I have to go with one. Stewart scares the crap out of me because he's a threat to go for like 2 yards per carry any week with no ability to factor in in the passing game, but Matthews has an awful ceiling in that offense.
I think Williams, but check the injury report. His shoulder is messed up.
Add Gresham. And two tight end spots? Yuck.
Matthews
This is a big week for me. I'm in 3rd place but need to win my last 2 games due to how close my league is, so any help with my WRs this week would be great. Standard scoring, pick 2 of the following 4:
Diggs vs. DAL
Snead vs. DET
Boyd vs. PHI
Gabriel vs. KC
I'm thinking Diggs and Gabriel. I know Gabriel is a risky play but I need upside and he's been having big weeks lately. Malcolm Mitchell is also a FA at the moment, I could snag him if anyone thinks he'd be a better upside play. Thanks guys.
Mitchell is a lot safer than Gabriel, who is a boom or bust WR4 in my opinion.
I'd go with Diggs and Snead out of those options.

I see Mitchell being very boom or bust as well though is the thing. Gronk may be out which could help him and he gets red zone looks, but the Patriots will always be a tough offense for fantasy. Chris Hogan seems to have a similar role but plays more snaps than Mitchell. Meanwhile, Matt Ryan has praised Gabriel's play and he has been more dangerous the past few weeks than any Falcons receiver not named Julio Jones. Assuming Marcus Peters is shadowing Julio, that leaves a lot of space for Gabriel to work. That's my view on the situation anyway, but the way fantasy works whoever I start won't put up points and the other guy will get 2 TDs.
stick with DT even with lynch starting?
or go with one of wallace, inman, or boyd?
One spot in a PPR: Demaryius Thomas, Jamison Crowder or Gurley?
