PPR League/Start 3 WR's and 1 TE

I'm starting Roy Williams and Roddy White…But, I'm unsure about my WR3 and which of my two TE's to start in week 1.

Which WR3?

Lee Evans at home vs. a strong Seattle secondary or Dwayne Bowe @ New England vs. a weaker secondary and the LB's/safeties expected to be focused on LJ and Gonzo?

Which TE?

Tony Scheffler @ Oakland vs. a strong defense that doesn't have to worry about Marshall and he's actually the number 2 TE listed on the Denver roster or Heath Miller at home vs. Houston…but he has to share the ball with Ward, Holmes, FWP, and Mendy…and maybe lose TD looks to Sweed.

I currently have Evans and Scheffler in my line-up, but have “waffled” on this decision all week…I have a very close match-up this week and I will need every point.

I’d go with Evans, though I agree that Bowe will produce. The Seattle D doesn’t play consistently well away from the dome and when they won away last year giving up 20pts per game was not unusual. Give the Buffalo D 20+ points to work with and the Bills could win.

GTD - Scheffler should be the #1/2 option this week in the pass game, if Shanny isn’t trying to prove a point. Miller will get a few red zone looks and is the safer play but his numbers will pale to Schef’s if he plays steady for even 1/2.

If you need points, go the risky pick with Scheff who might give you 6+pts.
If you feel your team is good to go and 4+ points will do, start Miller.

I would go with Evans against Seattle and Scheffler against Oakland.  Agree with Tav - that combo should give you the chance for more points this week.
