Need 3 from this pool (PPR): Bush, D. Brown, D. Thomas // T. Smith, Shorts, Crabtree

I need at least 1 RB and 1WR, then a flex.

At RB:
Bush is coming off an awful week; Thomas is a hand-cuff but this is hard to predict. Feel like Bush is due against a horrible run defense (@ Buffalo).

D. Brown seems to be healthy...might be good flex option.

At WR:
- Shorts seems to be pretty consistent; I didn't start him last week and missed out on 22 pts
- T. Smith had 2 catches / 2 TDs last week; also didn't start him, but don't feel like his performance is repeatable
- Crabtree had a good week last week but @ CHI this week

Was thinking:
- Bush at RB2, Brown at Flex, Shorts at WR2

Initial reaction would be Reggie, Torrey Smith, and Shorts. Last week was bad luck for Bush with him being benched bc of a fumble, but I agree with you that he will be motivated and have a good outing against a porous defense. If starting Bush, I wouldn't recommend starting Thomes (should only pick one out of that timeshare and Bush is the more talented one). Donald Brown is still fighting carries with Ballard, and even when it was just him he was never a real productive RB (high points of 11). At WR, Smith is a home-run threat and legitimate red zone target who is averaging more points per game than brown or thomas. Crabtree is the most talented WR on SF, but he also has not done much this year. Shorts is on a tear and I would ride the hot hand.
