YAFFT: Who should I start at WR for week 2?

[Imported]

Receivers are:
Donte Stallworth, Koren Robinson, Hines Ward, Chris Chambers, Muhsin Muhammad, and I picked up Anquan Boldin.

I'm leaning towards starting Stallworth (had the yds last week, needs TDs now), Ward (big day on Sunday), and Chambers (also had big day).

Also, between Warrick Dunn, Emmitt Smith, and Kevan Barlow, who would you have as your second back (Williams is my first)?

How many WR are you starting? Who are each of them playing?

I would say start Hines Ward, Donte' Stallworth, and Koren Robinson unless one of your other receivers is playing against a horrible defense (like Arizona)

3 started.

Ward plays Kansas City.
Stallworth places Houston.
Robinson plays Arizona (I guess that's a lock for a spot!).
Chambers plays NY Jets.
Muhammad plays Tamba Bay (I guess that's a solid no for that week too.)
Boldin plays Seatle.

I would say Stallworth and Robinson for sure if only because of their matchups. I'm a fan of Ward and he's a solid receiver, so I would probably start him as well.

Sounds good. I was leaning with Wards/Stallworth.. just couldn't figure out the third option. Thanks!

Any input on the RBs?

I personally think that Emmitt is washed up and since he's in Arizona, I don't think he's going to be of much value. I believe Barlow is still splitting carries with Hearst, so I'm not sure how much of an option he would be. Unless Dunn is going up against a great defense, I might go with him. What did Dunn put up last week and against who? And who is he playing this week?

Dunn is going up against Washington. Last week he faced Dallas and rushed for 41yds, had 20yds through the air and a td through the air. Emmitt on the other hand had 64yds rushing, and Barlow had 62. Both didn't have TDs though, which gave Dunn more points. Barlow is still splitting time with Hearst and is going up against St. Louis, Smith up against Seattle.

I'd say it's a toss up between Barlow and Dunn. I might lean towards Dunn if Barlow is still splitting carries with Hearst because you never know how many he will actually get and where he will get them. For example, last week it seemed like Hearst was carrying the ball a lot once SF got into the red zone. If that is in fact the case, it would give Barlow fewer chances at a TD. Admittedly, I didn't watch much of the Niners-Bears game, so I could be wrong, but it definitely seemed that way.
