I need to start one at RB, one at flex, and put one on the bench in a standard league.

 

Bell - Is pretty much certain to play, though at BAL and on a short week (Thurs night game) is not ideal.  Usually PITT vs BAL seem to be low scoring so I don't expect him to have a huge game but I feel like he is a safe bet since I know he will be playing.

 

Ellington - is at NYG this week, so matchup isn't great but not horrible either.  His foot issues apparently are nagging and he is reported to be walking in a boot.  So I am not 100% certain that he will play and if I slot him as my RB then he is ruled out at last minute I will have to put Ingram in vs CLE, my least favorable matchup.  So for AE I have him slotted at flex or nothing right now just due to the injury concerns.

 

Cooks - Had a great game last week, but Toon and Stills may be coming back.  NO will most likely be passing a ton since CLE has good run D, and I would expect Haden to be on Colston which signals Cooks to be facing Gilbert (rookie) or someone else.  I like the matchup but unsure if I like him over a RB at the flex position.

 

Any insight on my mess would be helpful....

Bell is your best bet even though Blount is going to be a short yardage vulture near the endzone..

 

I'd go Bell and Ellington.. Tough situation all around though..

I too would go Bell and Ellington. Bell is an absolute lock for me.


BTW the latest report I've seen on Ellington is his foot is much better than they expected coming out of the game and that he can't hurt it any worse, it's just a pain management issue.
