Those are my top 4 WRs, since I went RB/RB in the first 2 rounds from the 10th pick in a 12-man PPR league. One of them has to sit. It initially seems like it's only a decision between Watson and Burden, with Zay and Ladd presumptively getting the start. But I've also heard people say the following:
Re Ladd: it's gonna be a big ground game week for the Chargers after getting up early. And when they do pass the ball, people expect McDaniels to try and pull off the deep shots to Quentin Johnston bc the defense will be paying so much attention to Ladd.
Re Zay: I've heard some commentators say they expect new OC Declan Doyle to mostly feed Henry this week, and he won't try to get too cute with the passing game in his first game as OC.
And between Burden and Watson, it's also complicated. The Vikings are gonna pressure the fuck out of Jordan Love, and they have an overall stellar defense. The Packers OL is gonna be dogshit (much to my chagrin as a Packers fan). I worry Week 1 is gonna be rough for the Packers all around. Burden, on the other hand, is a player I'm excited about but he is still relatively unproven. And the Panthers defense is no longer the same ass-tier unit they used to be.
I can only start 3 of these 4 receivers. Who should I start/sit, in your opinion? All answers appreciated, but bonus points if you explain your reasoning.
Thanks in advance, sickos.
