Tom --
Who to start at WR1, WR2, and Flex out of: Cobb, Garcon, Floyd, Harvin, and Gerhart (10 Team Std Scoring)
I am really going back and forth on who to start after Cutler, Peterson, Graham, and Murray for week one. The wildcard is that TD passes or runs of 40+ and 50+ yards get 2 and 3 point bonuses respectively. Here is my roster:

QB Tony Romo, Dal QB
RB Adrian Peterson, Min RB
RB DeMarco Murray, Dal RB
WR Randall Cobb, GB WR at Seattle
WR Pierre Garcon, Wsh WR at Houston
TE Jimmy Graham, NO TE
FLEX Toby Gerhart, Jac RB at Philadelphia
D/ST Bengals D/ST D/ST
K Dan Bailey, Dal K
Bench Michael Floyd, Ari WR vs San Diego
Bench Percy Harvin, Sea WR vs Green Bay
Bench Eric Decker, NYJ WR vs Oakland
Bench Kelvin Benjamin, Car WR
Bench Davonta Freeman, Atl RB
Bench Mark Ingram, RB NO
Bench Jay Cutler, Chi QB

My best talent has tough match ups. Any thoughts? Thanks!

    Its week 1. No time to get cute. You go with talent over match ups week 1. However you have them ranked in terms of talent is who you want to start. I can give you my ranks but that will not help you much as they could be very different from how you have them ranked.

    Who would you go with?

    My talent ranks would be Cobb, Garcon/Floyd and then Gerhart since I think a 3 down RB offers the highest floor.

    Cobb Floyd and Gerhart. My issue with Garcon is RG3 looks bad and DJax is there to take targets away. I agree with you on the 3 down back thing. I prefer a RB at flex when possible. Philly may stack the box against him but Philly can be run on.

    I have same Garçon concerns plus those DJax targets will be the deep balls. Thanks!

    I would consider starting Harvin over either Cobb, Garcon or Gerhart. Cobb has the worst match up u can have in fantasy at Seattle even tho hes hard 2 bench (I have him benched in 1 of my 12 team ppr leagues in favor of Keenan, Crab and Roddy). Even tho Garcon is a ppr beast Washington (RG3) looks like throw up so far, its a tough match up at Houston who always defends the pass well. With Gerhart no1 is real certain in what they will receive in return from him and this is ppr but he does have a gorgeous match up against a Philly d that couldnt stop the run last year. My argument for Harvin is a match up with the Packers atrocious secondary at home (atleast been atrocious the past few years not sure if theyve done anything 2 improve it this off season).
