Who to start at flex?

[blueapple 0]

I have

P Crayton (DAL) vs the Giants

or

D Branch (SEA) vs The Bucs

 

We have regular performance league scoring with PPR.

 

Branch is the #1, but will all the attention being played on TO, I think the younger Crayton could breakout since Dallas might have to be throwing the ball a lot more than SA.

 

Anyone have any take on this?

 

Thanks!

Branch is the play. Bucs are terrible vs. the pass. Believe me, I live in Tampa. I look for Branch to catch 8+ balls with a TD.

Yup, stick with Branch. Don't get cute, especially in week 1. Crayton is being thrust into the starting lineup, and may still play alot of slot with Sam Hurd playing Glenn's role in 3 WR sets. Branch is the #1, straight up, and I expect some points to go up in that game. Stick with your man Deion.

I like Branch as well, maybe Crayton breaks out, but it is a conference game and I suspect the giants will show some pride on defense.

I'm not a Branch fan at all. I think he's over rated due to him being on a great team.

 

However, with Burleson and Hackett battling for the starter spot opposite Branch....he's a safe bet to get targeted about 8-10 times tomarrow. I like the prospect of Crayton this year, but I think Branch is a better start this week for you.

Agreed. I myself have crayton and it's enticing but Branch is proven and you know Hasselbeck will hit him all day. Alexander will get his touches but I still see branch closing on 100 and a td

I like Branch here. safer bet. Crayton could be huge or no payoff. Branch will be targeted and get some yds. Go with Branch.

Branch is my #3 and Crayton is my #6. You HAVE to start Branch this week. There is obviously a chance that Crayton will blow up, but I would rather keep him on the bench and let him get me trade value than bank on him getting me instant production. Branch has to be the start. Crayton is the starter if you wanna go big upside rather than consistent numbers.
