    FLEX Help: Lamar Miller, Darryl Richardson, Ben Tate

    I need to pick one of these guys for my flex:

    Lamar Miller @ INDY
    Darryl Richardson @ ATL
    Ben Tate vs TENN

    All three have pretty favorable matchups. Kubiak did say he wants to give Tate more touches, but he also said that before last weeks game and he only got single digit carries. I'm leaning Richardson right now, but not really sure. Isiah Pead will be back, but I doubt he makes much of an impact.

    Who are your bench WR's?

    I would say D.Richardson, but he has a banged up foot now too. A.Foster will still get more carries, and I think Kubiak is just playing with the media. L.Miller, not much to say about him. 3 whole rushing yards last week? WTF?

    I picked up I.Pead this week, because D.Richardson didn't exactly light it up last week. Plus has a injury issue now.

    I think I'd go Miller with no enthusiasm in that at all.

    I'd lean towards Richardson too. Not impressed at all with Miller last week. Either Richardson or Tate, I'd go with Richardson.

    I would go with Richardson. Tate would be my second choice.

    I'd go with Miller and just hope that last week was an anomoly... depends if you want to go for Miller's upside, or slightly more reliable in Tate

    I don't have any other WR's on my bench. The only WR's I have are Marshall, Amendola and Edelman (started Edelman already, and Marshall is obviously starting). I'm stockpiling RB's (Starters = Charles & SJax Bench: Miller, Tate, Richardson, and LeVeon Bell). I'm basically hoping by week 4 or 5 one of those bench RB's asserts themselves as a consistent flex play each week.

    I'm thinking Richardson is the safest bet for this week. I heard his foot injury is not considered that serious. Even though Richardson didn't do much in week 1, I heard Fisher really likes him because he is such a solid complete back (great in pass block, can run, and catch). As for week 2, I think there is more of a chance of Daniel Thomas cutting into Lamar Miller's production than Isiah Pead cutting into Darryl Richardson's production.

    Darryl Richardson just seems like the safest play.
