I'm in a 12-team, PPR. I need a WR to play in the flex position (Fitzgerald and Marshall are my starting WR's), and can choose from these two:
Domenik Hixon VS CLE Torrey Smith VS KC
Nicks is out, and Cleveland's defense is atrocious. Manning likes to throw the ball. That makes for a delicious recipe. However, Flacco has been targeting Smith a lot as of late. He also didn't have a let-down game after the inspired performance of two weeks ago, and KC's D is among the top 5 in pass TD's allowed.
I want to make sure to make the right pick; this is a MUST WIN for me!!! As always, I appreciate your help, and I WHIR.
Yep I agree with bunnnnny, you have to start Torrey. I know Hixon has a good matchup etc, but Torrey been in too good of form to sit over a 2nd/3rd string WR. Put it this way, if you start Hixon and he bombs out and Torrey kills it, you made the wrong decision and will be pissed. If you start Torrey and he bombs out then that's just bad luck but you made the right call
You have to go with Smith here. He is playing great and the matchup is great as well
QB- D. Brees, J. Freeman RB- M. Lynch, T. Richardson, R. Hillman, D. Brown WR- R. Wayne, M. Colston, L. Moore, J. Gordon, A. Brown TE- A. Hernandez, K. Rudolph, B. Myers
Torrey!! I wouldn't bench him until he stops producing! He has emereged as the second stud in Baltimore behing Rice and Flacco love him and targets him. Boldin can't beat anyone down field but Smith beats most!!
