Who Do I Start? The Email Bag

Brian, 

I have a dillema this week and don’t know which of my WR’s I should sit.  I can start 3.  My WR’s are Donald Driver, Anquan Boldin, Devery Henderson, and Bryant Johnson.  What would you do?

Tom, 

I would bench Boldin this week.  In reality I can’t imagine that after the hit he took at the end of the Jets game that he will be ready to play.  He was unconcious and taken off the field in a stretcher.  Regardless of whether he is healthy or not, the team would be smart to give him another week to fully recover.  I would check his status later in the week and then decide based on what the medical reports are.  Even if he is cleared to play, he may not be 100 percent.  While your WR’s are not lights out behind Boldin, they have decent match-ups in week 5.
