First and foremost, what does your matchup look like? Should you win if your players hit their expectations or do you need everything to go right and upside to have a chance because the other team is better? Typically the answer to this question will dictate how you should proceed.

  • Pitts - play him if you need upside. He has faced two bad matchups but should have a much easier time this week. If he can't break out then he likely hits the bench for awhile
  • Penny - another upside play. Atlanta isn't great and if Penny can get going he could be in for a big day with positive game script. Or it does the other way and he gets virtually nothing. Biggest swing in possible outcomes
  • Meyers - the consummate floor guy. Play him if you need average.
  • Olave - This is somewhere in between. Probably the best combo of floor & ceiling

For me, I play Pitts and Olave without knowing anything else. Pitts gets one more chance.

I agree with Golly to a certain extent. If you're normally a cautious person then go with Meyers and Penny. But if you want to swing for the fences go with Pitts. You know for a fact that Josh Allen and D. Swift are going to get you some points. As will Waller and probably St. Brown. Where I might differ with him is that I like to avoid any unnecessary risk and so I would take whatever Meyers and Penny give me.
