Start AJG?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Start AJG?

Postby KCLep20 » Tue Dec 12, 2017 8:44 am

So I know we should always start our studs, but is anyone else hesitant to start AJG against the Vikings? It's a terrible matchup, and Dalton has looked like garbage lately.

Any thoughts? my other options would be Diggs/Mixon (or Gio) which also aren't great.

Demaryius might be an option against the Colts (assuming that's DT in your sign).

Yes, I am super nervous about it as well. Xavier Rhodes is legit "shutdown" CB.

I am personally considering sitting him this week. Rhodes can legitimately erase a WR and AJG has been inconsistent this year so far, so I do not think you are crazy for posing the question.

I'm already planning to start DT, the real question comes between AJG and Diggs. Diggs hasn't done much lately which worries me, and CIN has a pretty good secondary. As stated above, Rhodes has already eliminated top tier WR1's this year which makes me worry about him putting up 5 points and killing me in the semi-finals.
