Gordon for Thompson & Dez/Thielen .5 PPR (1 Viewer)

[DigitalFool]

My Gordon for his Thompson & Dez or Thielen .5 PPR

My roster:

QB Roethlisberger (lost Rodgers AND Watson)
RB Gordon, Duke Johnson, Powell, David Johnson (still holding out hope)
WR Diggs, Jeffery, JuJu, R. Matthews
TE Ertz

Start 2 RB/2 WR and Flex - have been rolling with 3 WR mainly.  I'm not actively shopping Gordon, but I'm not sure I'd want both Thielen/Diggs starting. Also not a big Dez fan either. I like Thompson for PPR factor and Kelley hurt.

What seems like the best route to go? TIA

How many WR's & RB's can you start? That will have some influence to the decision. 

I think I pull the trigger however that is more because with Rob Kelly out I think Thompson starts getting significantly more touches and I have some worry that Gordon will lose touches to Eckler.  Because of that I don't think there is much difference between Gordon and Thompson in a PPR situation.  I prefer Thielen to Dez by a large margin for the second part (even with you already having Diggs).

After that I think you need to look to upgrade at RB by moving one of your WR's (depending on starting requirements).
