    This is a big decision for me. Need to start Mohammed Sanu, Riley Cooper, or Allen Hurns. Fantasy index has Sanu 34, Cooper 45, and Hurns 55 in their matchup weekly rankings.

    Sanu ---- should get catches but no TDs
    Cooper --- deep TD but not many catches
    Hurns ---- might be the best play of all, lined up w. the 1's all preseason and Shorts may not play, plus they gonna have to throw bc Philly will blow em out.

    Need Advice and legit advice. PPR league, 12 teams. Here is my starting lineup:

    QB Romo
    RB Chris Johnson
    RB Doug Martin
    WR Roddy White
    WR ----- one of the above
    TE Kyle Rudolph
    K Hauschka
    D NYJ

    PLEASE ADVISE.....

    @Greg Brosh what you think.

    @ggdix I like to go with the safe play in week 1. In my opinion the safe and smart play in week 1 is Cooper and no one else.

    As for Hurn - Undrafted Rookie (could become something special but week 1 is a huge task)

    Yeah don't go Hurn on the hunch the Jags will air it out. He's so far down the chain, I don't even think he should be on your team period.

    I have to go Sanu. I know Cooper is tempting, but there just aren't enough catches to go around on the Eagles offense to make him a consistent option. Sanu could be a catch king. And that's what you want in a PPR league.

    I hear what you are saying on Hurns. I do think he is rosterable bc this is a keeper league. Plus, if the fantasy index is right he may be the sleeper of the year. However, starting him is a stretch. You are the 3rd source that has backed Sanu, so based on the PPR aspect i will go w. him. Thanks for your advice as i am sure this will not be the last time i ask :)

    It will be hard seeing him being a sleeper once Robinson starts pushing him for No. 3 duties.

    Shorts, Lee, Robinson, Hurns. Plus Ace Sanders will be around once his suspension is up. Sleeper of the Year might be a bit of a stretch. Is this the magazine? Keep in mind those are published only a few weeks after the draft.

    No its not a magazine. They do publish one but i never read the mag. You pay 75 for the year, they email you 2-3 times a week w. detailed descriptions for each team in the nfl and matchup rankings.... Its actually nice, comes in a pdf file right to my gmail. mark my words, Hurns will be big this year. They are saying the Shorts should not even be rostered and will be ineffective in this offense. time will tell, really too early to understand the jags offense.

    NOW, newest index puts Hurns over Sanu w. Shorts sitting out.... just an fyi to those who read this stuff.

    Right now the only guy I trust from the Jags is Gerhart.
