Help with what receivers to start and flex

[Brees#1]

I am genuinely asking your imput this time. It's amazing my team is still in it at 5-5 winning two in a row. I am playing a 3-7 opponent this week and need to beat that because I have a tough week 12 matchup with the runner-up from last year(to me of course).

I have Hill who is playing the rams. The rams have allowed production to a top two receiver at least. But they play zone on one receiver and man on another. Hill has issues with man, his stats against those base defenses don't stand out.

Tate was traded to the eagles, which I did not like at all. He goes to the saints who can shut down one. Tate has a history of burning us, but he's in a different scheme. Lattimore may be on either him or Jeffery and the other will probably have double coverage.

Then there are the ravens Brown and Crabtree. This is a good matchup for Brown, but Flacco is not playing. I do not trust Jackson to utilize Brown in this game and from the snaps I have seen with Jackson he's unpredictable. I don't know if Crabtree is worth playing either but he might be targeted more with Jackson.

I also added Moncrief but there were slim options here and I felt he was the best available. He seems to be scoring in DDs lately (given PPR here) but he's playing Pittsburgh.

Now as for my flex, I need to decide on if I will play JoHo this week over a receiver. It seems he gets more redzone opportunities in games that are tougher for Trubisky, games against tough pass defenses like Buffalo.

I need two to start, three if I should bench Howard.

Hill and Crabby or Mocreif if you feel lucky.....I like Moncreif this week...........

I had Hill, Tate, and Moncrief in before I posted this. That's what I will keep. Jones already is helping me out tonight and Elliott has a good matchup. I can take these chances and leave Howard on the bench. If Arizona can get some turnovers on Carr and Prater gets FG chances against that terrible Carolina defense, it may work out.

I'm learning Flacco is not exactly out yet. If he plays then it becomes interesting. Cincinnati has a terrible defense and vulnerable to speed.

I'm playing Hill, Mocrief, and Tate. I can't play Howard against the vikings.

I think if it is me, I go Hill, Howard, and Tate. It doesn't look like Flacco is going to play, so the Ravens guys are a huge question mark, but whoever is playing QB could lock in on one of them and they could explode. Or, he could suck ass and complete 6 balls all game or something, or he could lock in on someone else and they could explode. Or... you get the point. If you need a hail mary, it may be worth a shot, but I think if you have to take a bit of a chance, you go with the more talented WR, with the more talented QB throwing to him, even though he is on a new team.

I don't think Montcrief instead of Tate is a bad play at all, though. He's probably the safest play, so if you feel like you have pop in other places and would rather go with the higher floors, I think you should go with Montcrief.
