In a not so thinly veiled ww advice post (move it if necessary), I'm looking at the Denver receiving/te group.
Obviously Sheffler made some noise last week, and he's a guy I held on to for a while at the start of the season as he'd been identified as having some promise. Marshall had the one big play vs. Seattle and has gotten some pub from various sources (Bloom, Lammey, etc.). Both have had their targets boosted the last couple of weeks with Cutler taking over, while it looks like Smith is on the way out and Walker's had his targets drop slightly.
In a nice matchup vs. AZ I figure one or two of these guys is due for a TD and some yards. Are Sheffler and/or Marshall viable FF starters this week, and who would be the better bet? I'm leaning toward Sheffler as he got the red zone attention, but it seems like Marshall would be a good target there too with his size and abilities, though he's probable with an ankle injury (any details on that?).

That's where I was leaning too. That play he made on the 2nd TD last week was impressive. At first I thought he got a lucky bounce, but seeing the replay it looked like he actually intentionally flipped the ball up to himself away from Kiel and then caught it.Also Alexander is questionable on today's injury report (I think he's literally made of glass), so hopefully that will equate to an extra target or two for Sheffler.
