Need 2RB, 1WR for Playoff Semi - PPR (1 Viewer)

NinerDownUnder

Footballguy
PPR league 1pt/10y rush/rec, 6pts TD

Need to start 2 RB out of the following: Burkhead, Ayaji, Peyton Barber, Mixon (out), Perine, Jamaal Williams

My leans: Burkhead & Ayaji

Thoughts on each:

Burkhead - Pros: TD vulture on goal line, nice matchup against weakened Steelers LB corps. PPR makes him an attractive option. Cons: Dion Lewis & James White could steal carries/receptions

Ayaji - Pros: Great matchup against Giants, loss of Wentz may lead to more carries. Cons: Could lose carries to LeGarrette Blount

Barber - Pros: Emerging as the lead back at the Bucs with Martin struggling. Cons: Martin still listed as starter. Bucs offense is struggling. Winston's return may lead to more passing than rushing

Perine - Pros: Clear lead back as being the only fit RB left. Cons: Has not done much since back to back 100 yard games. Washington injuries could have them down early, leading to more passing

Williams - Pros: Clear workhorse back, excellent for PPR. Rodgers back could open up holes for him. Cons: Tough matchup on the road against stingy Panthers defense.

FREE AGENT OPTIONS: Kerwynn Williams, Frank Gore, Giovani Bernard

Need to start 1 WR from the following: Stefon Diggs, Robby Anderson, Marquise Lee

My lean: Stefon Diggs

Thoughts on each:

Diggs - Pros: Has been a must start in most weeks. Still gets a lot of targets. Cons: Losing receptions to Thielien & Rudolph. Has not scored a lot of TDs

Anderson - Pros: Standout #1 WR, regular scorer throughout the season. Cons: Bryce Petty is not Josh McCown,

Marquise Lee - Pros: Bortles on a hot run. Great matchup. Cons: Bortles could implode at any moment. Dede Westbrook emerging. Niggling injuries

FREE AGENT OPTIONS: Agholor, Kupp, Sanu, Goodwin, Westbrook

Would very much like opinions. Will answer yours.

 
Can't fault your leanings, love Burkhead and expect more Ajayi use, Perine would be 3rd for me, for WR I like Diggs, think Rudolph plays decoy.  2nd would be Goodwin off wire.  Thanks.
