Yeah, I've been fading players vs DEN, but especially this week, I'm wondering if Osweiler comes out of this standing up..

Dude I set lineups for I benched Hop for Ware/Marvin Jones. Guess it is easier when it's not your own money on the line.

I waffled and am starting him unfortunately. Feeling like I should have started Crowell instead though.

If I had any other viable options I definitely would, but I've somehow managed to put together the biggest bust WR corps possible this season.

I did, but I had the luxury of starting Gio, Bell, Ingram, Landry, Fitz, and Demaryus.

I also benched Fuller in a non-PPR and started Boldin. Teams have figured out that you're not going to beat those corners and that pass rush by locking in on your WRs.

I benched him for Spencer Ware. Not regretting it and still not that optimistic. Alternatively you could argue I started DT over him, which is still TBD.

Started him in one league but thanks to Gronk, Julio and Gordon I already won the game

Benched him in other, started Montgomery in place of him.
