Don't worry, you can get started in just a few seconds .Below are the Perfect Challenge picks of Marcas Grant, Matt Franciscovich, Matt Harmon and me. Marcas Grant's Week 1 lineupI like Marcas' contrarian tactic here, being the only one to invest so heavily in the . I'm a believer in their offense as well, and a Week 1 matchup against Washington's porous secondary could be just the ticket for your Perfect Challenge lineup. is the way to go among pa s-catchers if you want to follow Marcas' strategy. The defense added this offseason, and could terrorize behind his leaky offensive line. and appear in all four of our lineups, so I won't spend too much time on them here. Does anyone think is not getting a million carries in Week 1? I'd expect the team to run him early and often against a defense that has lost several superstars this offseason. With out as he serves a four-game suspension, could get ALL OF THE TARGETS on Thursday night. Matt Franciscovich's Week 1 lineupFranchise believes in carving up the secondary, which isn't a bad strategy at all. Last year against the , Rodgers threw for 617 pa sing yards with 10 touchdowns and zero interceptions. is an excellent pick as well, as he's looked great this preseason and should be the focal point of the running attack. A suming doesn't live in the Cincinnati backfield, Hill could have a big day as Troy Reeder Jersey the try to salt away a win. With the committee backfield in Dallas, I feel like could see a ton of targets -- especially in the red zone. Matt Harmon's Week 1 lineupHarmon and I are on the same page with the pick this week. He has a great matchup, and is now in Kyle Shanahan's offense that has produced monster numbers for it's No. 1 wide receiver. He's a no brainer. The defense against the is a frisky pick, but with back in New York and a talented young front disrupting the trenches, Cleveland could find it difficult to score points. Jr. is also a great choice, given Dallas' lo ses in the secondary to injuries this offseason, and his all-world talent. And last but not least, I like the bold move selecting . I love his potential and have him in DFS lineups this weekend, but for this format I'm just a tad too worried that and could scoop up a handful of rushing scores, limiting Bradford's ceiling.Alex Gelhar's Week 1 lineupI went with the /Gronk tandem, as I like them to put up a ton of points on Thursday night against the suspect secondary. With most of Brady's top targets injured, Gronk could be even more heavily targeted than he already is on a normal week. The defense is a me s and in the transition to a 3-4, with players like playing new positions. Given this is the first game for the sans , could EAT on Sunday. Maybe the defense slows down the enough to force a few field goals? That's why I went with Vinatieri. As for the D/ST, the offense has also lost a number of stars, and I think Mike Zimmer's unit is young, talented, and ready to make a splash in prime-time.Anyway, that's how we're rolling for Week 1.
