Adrian Peterson vs NO
Zack Moss (concussion) vs Jets
Alex Collins vs Packers (Carson out)
Devonta Smith vs Denver -has let me down every time I needed a start from him, but currently am thinking Smith
I definitely don’t like Peterson. NO is brutal against the run.
Moss is kind of middling on his best day.
Collins has a bit more upside than Moss, but still not great.
Smith has the most upside, although Denver isn’t an easy matchup.
Think I’d have to take Smith for the upside, or Collins for the safer floor (assuming Carson doesn’t play)…

I am in a similar boat and am going Smith.

Carson has been ruled out, so my favorite would be Collins. Smith does have more upside, so it’s not a bad call. But he doesn’t get enough steady volume to start him with confidence.
At the end of the day, it all comes down to this week’s fantasy matchup. Are you ahead in projections? Go for the safe floor and start Collins. Are you behind? Start Smith and hope for a big game.
