Week 2: I am starting Rex Burkhead over ______ (1 Viewer)

PPR

I am starting Rex Burkhead over Ameer Abdullah and Andre Ellington.
It is pretty speculative based on some 'experts' views.  Burkhead will probably see some time in the slot, but whether he is the guy we do not know.  We know what the roles of Abdullah and Ellington are, and their floor is higher.  It is a gamble with not much upside.  Burkhead is simply a hold and see at this point.  Not that Abdullah or Ellington are gonna get much more than 10 points, but at least you know you will get about 10 points.  

 
No one. 

This is the powerback's game for NE.

Belichick use's the right tools for the job.  He does not shove a round peg into a square hole.

Look at the Saints linebackers, young and fast.

We have

Gilliesee (power)

White (speed)

Lewis (quickness)

Hoody wants mismatches,  if the Saints had large lumbering LB's out there, it would be a Lewis or White game.  Saints are small and fast at LB, Hoody will use his mismatches, (Gilly) to beat them up and Gronk to move the chains.

Pretty good analysis. Makes me feel better about rolling with Gillislee over Abdullah, Marvin Jones and Kerwynn as my third flex guy.
