There's people who start the WR1 for the league MVP QB

And there's people that don't

Bateman might be the number one WR but he won’t ever be the #1 receiving option. Again, even in his big game where flowers got only one catch, Bateman still only got 4 catches.

And flowers was not a must start when he was healthy.

Yep would not surprise me at all if White and Irving are both used a lot but what if they get behind by two scores? Baker can still check down to either or throw some screens but there has to be someone else. I don't think the options are very appetizing though. TB WR/TE might be a non-play until proven otherwise.
This is another divisional game too. And the winner is in first place.
Maybe I'm basing too much on the latest Lions-Vikings divisional game, but they do seem to be a scoring slugfest.

PPR

FLEX - start one
Chase Brown vs CLE
Bucky vs ATL
Tre Tucker vs KC

Tucker really isn't in consideration but I thought I would throw him in there

FLEX - start one
Wan'Dale vs PIT
Mattison vs KC
Bateman vs CLE
Atwell vs MIN
Lockett vs BUF
I lean Chase in the first one. Wan'Dale or Lockett (depending on DK) in the 2nd. Bateman is sneaky, though.

I think I lean Shepard. I think Ford is hurt, isn't he?

Ignore my previous comment, mixed him up with Spears when I was reading my player updates. Ford prob still out, Spears hoping to return to the field this week

Uh, what kind of receiving corps does one need for Flowers to not be a must start?

He’s 19th in PPR scoring.

If that guy is your 4th or lower option, you’re loaded.

You're gonna make me cry, my lineup with G.Wilson, Evans, Godwin, and Flowers just had high score 3 weeks in a row and now I'm not sure I'll win since I lost 3 of them plus had juju on the bench.

But even with 3 WRs of equal or greater value, Flowers was still in my flex every week

In the lone league I have him he’s on the bench currently for the first time. Even though I lost Godwin and don’t trust Olave right now.

Looking like a three TE week in that one. Fingers crossed.

Half ppr

ZMoss, JFord, Otton, or Shepard, leaning Otton
I'd definitely go Otton, especially with all the injuries last week.

So since I think this you should go with someone else LOL

I just put him in

My kid had a fall musical and I couldn't even get him out of IR slot in most of my leagues this evening.

I guess the DARE program is dead if I just watched 100 second graders sing a hippie song like Octopus Garden during TNF

Most leagues are still 2 Wr and a flex. 19th best is not a must start. It’s a should start every week. But it’s not one that you won’t question it if you have a good third rb.

Never said he wasn’t a good start. But the term must start has a different meaning in fantasy football.
