This one is close: Brenton Strange or Kyle Monangai. There is almost nothing between them — start either and you have not made a mistake.

FLEX means that spot can be a running back, receiver or tight end. Projections come from Sleeper and are adjusted for who each player faces this week. Scoring uses your league’s rules: tight ends get 1.5 per catch, passing touchdowns 6. Change the rules.
