NFL Week 12 Start/Sit Advice: Rome Odunze, Ashton Jeanty, Ken Walker & More

Wide Receiver Landscape

• 💡 The wide receiver position is currently thin, making it difficult to find players to bench.
• 🎯 Romo Dun is a recommended start due to Pittsburgh allowing significant yards to wide receivers, with the hope he can maintain a 'stud' status.
• 📌 In the Jacksonville passing game, Jacobe Meyers and Parker Washington are considered WR3s if Brian Thomas Jr. is out, while Evan Engram is a borderline TE1/high-end TE2.

Running Back Dilemmas

• 🚀 Breece Hall is slightly favored over Zay Flowers due to Flowers' tough matchup, but both are considered close calls.
• ⚠️ Several running backs like Hall, Judkins, and Genty are described as "reluctant starts" or "closer to sits" due to question marks and recent struggles.
• 📈 Ken Walker is a recommended start, with expectations of increased opportunities and involvement in the passing game, especially against a potentially weakened Titans run defense.
• 🎯 David Montgomery is highlighted with a stat suggesting he could perform well against the Giants, who have allowed double-digit PPR points to RBs with limited carries and catches.

Running Back Rankings & Outlook

• 📊 A group of seven running backs are discussed: Emanuel Wilson, Alvin Kamara, Sean Tucker, David Montgomery, Ashton Genty, Quinnion Judkins, and Breece Hall, with Ken Walker also included.
• 🔑 Emanuel Wilson is considered a starter if Josh Jacobs is out, ranked similarly to Woody Marks, but with concerns about the Packers' offense.
• 💰 Sean Tucker is viewed as a player with upside if he gets consistent carries, but faces a tough matchup against the Rams' run defense.
• 🌟 Alvin Kamara is a definite start, considered a number two fantasy running back, with optimism around his workload and a favorable matchup against Atlanta.

Quarterback and Defense Considerations

• 🏈 Trevor Lawrence is only recommended as a start in superflex leagues due to a tough matchup against Arizona.
• ⚡ Henderson is preferred over Chase Brown in the New England at Cincinnati game, with Cincinnati's consistent points allowed to RBs being a key factor.
• 🎯 The Cowboys offense is viewed as slightly more confident than the Eagles' offense, despite both facing challenging matchups.
