Fantasy Football Advice

I have a plethora of mediocre WR's to choose from this weekend. I have to start 3 out of these choices:

Victor Cruz
Kenbrell Thompkins
Michael Floyd

Kendal Wright
Chris Givens


free agents that are projected to score more than I have now:

Aaron Dobson
Jarret Boykin
Golden Tate
Stephen Hill



Thoughts?

It has come down to this. My team is on the verge of becoming a poopie flavored lollipop. Who would you start?

QB - Start One
Andrew Luck vs Denver
Phillip Rivers @ Jax

RB - Start Two (Steven Jackson on IR still so this is easy)
Leveon Bell & Arian Foster

WR - Start Three
Keenan Allen @ Jax
Pierre Garcon vs Chicago
Andre Johnson @ KC
Nate Washington vs San Fran
Robert Woods @ Miami

Cruz obviously. Then I'd go with Thompkins despite the drops....because he gets enough targets where you might get lucky and he won't go all Braylon on you.

The other option is just a crapshoot. Both Floyd and Wright have terrible matchups. I don't know if there is a right answer there.

Rivers easily
RB duh
WR - Keenan Allen just bc of the matchup, pierre garcon, and hard to not start andre johnson even though his QB sucks. maybe keenam will just lock in on him and he'll get a ton of targets? i'd stay away from anybody playing SF at WR.

FYI never look at projected rankings, especially from espn. Use other ranking sources like fantasypros or whomever you like to decide your lineups.

Example: this week espn would have me start Reuben Randle vs phillie 5 points over josh Gordon vs Green Bay (fantasy pros has 99%-1% Gordon over randle). Has the cowboys 3rd string rb well over Doug Martin (now I know martin isn't having a great year, but come'on he's still going to get 25 touches). Yahoo isn't much better.

Somebody just dropped Lamar Miller in my league. He's gotta be worth a pickup....if not to just stash on the bench, right?


edit: wow....just looked at his stats. he's underperforming against the guy I figured I would drop him for. what happened there?

Jarret Boykins (GB WR) or Eddie Royal... for a bench stash... thoughts anyone?

Also is it safe to drop B Pierce right now or do I try to use him as trade bait for Rice's owner?

I'm thinking about picking up Pierce for the inevitable Rice injury.

I'm higher on Royal because Rivers is actually playing really well this year with a line that can actually block for him.

dump options are
Pierce
Helu
Bryce Brown (handcuff to McCoy)
Rudolph
Cleveland D (I picked up NE because they have a better matchup)
