    I've got an interesting matchup this weekend in my pool - the guy I'm playing lost his first four games and went into full sell mode, during which we made a trade in which I basically sent him Matt Forte for Blake Bortles.

    After that trade (and a few others with other managers), he went on a tear and HASN'T LOST SINCE.

    Here's who I'm planning to start:

    QB - Palmer
    RBs - Forte and Draughn
    WRs - Fitz, Robinson and Cooks
    TE - Walker
    FLEX - Decker
    K - Gostkowski
    D - Texans

    On my bench I have Big Ben, Charcandrick West, Antonio Andrews, Amendola, Chandler, and the Jets D.

    I can start a QB in my FLEX - worth it to start Ben vs. DEN instead of a WR? Also, Jets vs. Cowboys or Texans vs. Colts for DEF?

    I'm feeling pretty good overall - his lineup:

    QB - Wilson
    RBs - Hillman and Hill
    WRs - Hilton, Landry and Lockett
    TE - Julius
    FLEX - Bortles
    K - Catanzaro
    D - Chiefs

    His bench - Cousins, Langford, JStew, JWhite, Diggs, DJax.

    Little worried about Wilson and Bortles - both have cake matchups this wknd and could do a LOT of damage.

    Yes, I'd definitely start Big Ben over a WR. He will still produce even against the Broncos.

    Yeah, I was leaning that way as well. thanks for the input.

    DEF - Jets or Texans? Both have good matchups and are playing well.
