Does Brandon Marshall's suspension make Royal a must start?

I drafted Bowe and V. Jackson to start in a league that starts 2 wrs. I also drafted Royal late. with Brandon Marshalls problems does it make Royal a must start over the other two. Please give me some insight

I wouldn't say a must start over the other 2 on every occassion. However, this week according to KFFL, Bowe is ranked #13 and has a "Weak Play" rating meaning he should underperform his usual numbers and Royal #27 a "Strong Play" meaning outperform usual numbers. KFFL Gives the edge to Bowe and the smart play is Bowe because he's ranked higher. But I have a gut feeling too Royal is the better play.

Marshall's preseason suspension should have no bearing on week 1 since Marshall will be playing come week 1. His suspension ended Sept. 5th (yesterday) so he'll be back in the lineup for the CIN game. This may actually help Royal though, since Marshall will be drawing double coverage instead of him.

I would start Bowe and Royal. I don't think the Chargers will have to pass much against the Raiders, I expect them to run the ball down their throat all night
