Which two Flex players should I start?

Marshawn Lynch against Chicago

Pierre Garcon against Washington

Roy Williams against Minnesota

BenJarvus Green-Ellis against Baltimore

Tony Gonzalez against Philadelphia (Not really a good option though)

So which two should I start? I'm leaning towards Williams and Green-Ellis but I want to hear other opinions. Thanks.

    Tough tough tough. I know why no one answered this one but i'm going to take a shot.

    If you're in a PPR I actually like Gonzo a lot. Phillie has given up some huge games to TE's this year. It's a risk, but there could be a huge reward in store. That's my case for Tony.

    If you're not PPR and you don't want to roll the dice, I would roll out (1) Lynch (SEA has already announced he's going to get extra carries. Hasselbeck just lost Branch and I doubt they want him concussed considering the pass rush he'll be facing with Julius Peppers. I'd guess a 80 Yard 1 TD line, maybe a little better, maybe a little less, but guaranteed carries).

    (2) Roy Williams. He's a decent play against Minnesota who lost Cedric Griffen out of there Secondary, may give up a few extra passing yards. Williams has been hot and out competing Dez Bryant, although he's still splitting catches/targets with Witten and Austin, arguably the best receiver in the league right now.

    I wouldn't play BJGE against Baltimore's defense, Danny Woodhead will steal his carries and catches. I wouldn't play Garcon. He's had a slow start and that's not going to change against an improving WAS secondary. don't let their early numbers fool you, they were shutdown against GB last week (as far as TD's are concerned).
