    My team has been decimated by injury. I now have to decide between Floyd (tonight vs. SF) and Cruz (vs. GB). I can also pick up Sammie Coates (vs. NYJ). If you recommend Coates, which of the first two would you drop?


    Team #1 (No PPR, 12 Teams): 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 FLEX, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF
    Passing: 6 pts/TD, 1 pt/25 yds,
    Rushing & Receiving: 6 pts/TD, 1 pt/10 yds

    GB vs NYG is going to be a shootout. If Sam Shield is out (GB) look for ODELL to be the star. If Shields plays, look for Sheppard or Cruz to be the star... either way, CRUZ and Floyd are about the same no matter what THIS WEEK with Plamer OUT.

    Coates seems like a good option as it SEEMS he has over taken Wheaton as WR#2 - Dropping Cruz could be a smart move but it's too soon to add Coates because we don't know for sure he has won the position battle and can retain it.

    I'd start CRUZ.

    My only other option would be to start Barnige (vs. NE!). I've benched him in favor of Zach Miller, who has a much better match up against IND, so I figured any of the three above would be preferable.

    naw Cruz has a good chance to perform.
