Tough questions for me here:
1. My team is slaughtered by byes this week. I'm looking at one of three options for my flex position: BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Willis McGahee or Greg Olson. I'm leaning towards Olson because of how bad the Falcons D has been at stopping tight ends, but I'm never happy about starting two tight ends.
2. Bernard Pierce has hit the waiver wire. Normally, I wouldn't care, but Ray Rice is one of my starting RBs. Green-Ellis, McGahee and DeAndre Hopkins are the players I'd consider cutting to get him (I also have Andre Ellington and Michael Floyd on my bench). I know it's usually worth losing some bench points to gain a starter's handcuff, and Hopkins is the guy I'd be most likely to drop. After being screwed earlier this year by a lack of quality RBs (thanks, largely, to Rice and MJD tanking), I hesitate to drop any RB with a chance to put up solid numbers.
So, basically, who would you start, and who (if anyone) would you drop for Pierce.
