To Megatron or not to Megatron

Calvin Johnson is a "game time decision" this week. He played last week but only had 2 catches for 12 yards. Should I roll the dice and start him this week or should I sit him in favor of Larry Fitzgerald (@ Denver) or Julian Edelman (vs. Cincinnati)? My other starting WR is Antonio Brown.

FYI, the top FA WRs available in my league are Allen Hurns (12.0 ppg), Devin Hester (11.0 ppg), John Brown (10.5 ppg), and Miles Austin (10.0 ppg).

Usually they announce game time decisions 20-30 minutes beforehand so I'd just wait and see. Personally I'm going up against him so I hope he doesn't play.

My concern is that, even if he does play he doesn't do anything just like last week.

Hard to trust..even if he plays if hes not 100% hes gonna lose catches again to Tate, Ross and their TEs.

Honestly, Id be tempted to go get John Brown if I were you. The 49ers arent great at CB and Fitz isnt Fitz anymore.

Yeah I would probably take a flyer on someone. Is your league PPR? If so use Edelman. Brown and Hurns both have big play TD potential though. I don't like Fitz.

I ended up dropping Fitzgerald for Hurns but all the reports I'm hearing this morning are that Megatron is feeling much better today than last week so I'm starting him.

I was going to say,if you haven't gotten it figured out yet, start frickin' MEGATRON!!!

He's clearly one of those players that you ride out, unless something drastic happens.
Meg @ 70% > almost any other receiver

I started Megatron so naturally he doesn't have a single catch in the first half. If I'd benched him he'd probably have 100 yards and a couple TDs already. FMFL

Happens.

Brandon Marshal got 4.4 pts.for me today. Larry "3 tds" Donnell who I have started since week 1 had zero. Sat Brian Quick and he had over 20...
