I am leaning toward Osi on sunday night, but I like Smith's matchup...Schobel is just plain a stud..Any ideas?

Amazing. Got the same dilema in a league and am waffleing back and forth. While currently I have Schoebel sitting (vs. NE) I as well would like some imput from others. I could start all 3 at the expense of Knight as my 3rd DB, but DB's usually outscore DL in my league. Wish my other positions were as deep as this though.

I'd start Smith. They are all good, but Cleveland's line is much worse than NE or Indy.
I like Osi slightly more from a talent perspective, but it's close enough to go with the matchup.

whatever you do, do not start anyone against peyton manning this year or, any other year for that matter! the guy is like a magician when it comes to avoiding sacks. i can't figure out why he is so good at it, but he is. personally, i'd go with will smith against frye. for what it's worth.......

when picking DL's I usually look at the QB and line of the opponent.
in this example, NE and Indy have superior QBs compared to Cleveland and also better lines. So I would go with Will Smith.
obviously a poor line can lead to sacks, but a poor QB also can, as he is more apt to lose his head per se and start taking too much time in the pocket, resulting in a sack.
alternately, because it is week 1, I have been known to start the guys I drafted highest.
