Question: Which 3 wide receivers would you play in week 11?
I need to start 3 of these 4.
Miles Austin vs. DET
Anquan Boldin vs. CAR
Greg Jennings vs. MIN
Brandon Lloyd vs. SD
Right now I’ve got Miles Austin on my bench, but who would you bench?
Best answer:
You have a great set of wide receivers with good matchups. I like Miles Austin, Greg Jennings, and Brandon Lloyd. Anquan Boldin hasn’t impressed me much this year. He gets his touches but Torrey Smith is the Ravens wideout that I would want on my team. Brandon Lloyd could have a big game against SD. I say you bench Boldin or Lloyd, but definitely start Miles Austin against Detroit.

Question: Week 3 start and sit – Steve Smith (CAR) or Johnny Knox?
I have Wes Welker, Hakeen Nicks, Steve Smith (CAR) and Johnny Knox as WRs on my fantasy team. I am obviously going with Wes Welker and Hakeem Nicks as my first two starters. I have to decide between Steve Smith and Johnny Knox.
Steve Smith gets a new QB and a tough CIN corner who shut down Randy Moss in week 1 and Anquan Boldin in week 2. Should I start Johnny Knox instead? What do you think?
Answer:
I don’t like the matchup the Chicago Bears have, so I would stick with Steve Smith. Johnny Knox hasn’t been as consistent. Although he has surprise upside with 100+ yard games, he also has an equal chance of being held to under 20 yards.

Question: Who should I play in the flex for week 16?
My team has made it to the Championship! Standard league (No PPR).
Here is my current lineup:
QB — Peyton Manning
WR — DeSean Jackson
WR — Hakeem Nicks
RB — Steven Jackson
RB — LeGarrette Blount
TE — Jason Witten
FLEX — NEED YOUR HELP!
K — David Akers
Def — Eagles D
Help me choose my flex from the following:
Felix Jones @ ARI — This who I’m leaning towards with such a great matchup against a bad Arizon defense. But I’ve read he missed practice Tuesday and Wednesday with a bruised shin. Does anyone know if this injury is srious? How big of a threat are Choice and Barber to his carries this week? Plus Felix is great as receiver out of the backfield–better than those other two.
OR
Anquan Boldin @ CLE — His inconsistency has been killing me lately. I know the guy is an absolute beast of a player, but he’s being out produced by Mason! He tore up the Browns early in the season, ironically his biggest fantasy output of the year believe it or not.
The other “options” I have on my bench include the following:
Brian Westbrook @ STL (Dixon might be out so he may be the lone workhorse RB v. Rams)
Tashard Choice @ ARI (If Felix can’t go he’s my favorite option due to workload/redzone looks)
Mario Manningham @ GB (Coming off a good performance last week–tougher GB matchup)
Donald Brown @ OAK (had a breakout game last week–if only Colts RB he could play good vs a bad Raiders Run D)
Who is my best bet out of this group? Who do you think I should …

Question: Which WR should I start in my WR2 spot in week 1?
Anquan Boldin is my WR2, but he may be sitting out this week due to a hamstring injury. Should I start Antonio Bryant, Laveranues Coles, or Donnie Avery?
Answer:
I would check up on Boldin’s status at the last minute to see if he’ll be starting. If he is questionable, then I would go with Antonio Bryant.
