Week 9 - Fantasy Football - which WRs to start?

My choices:

D. Branch vs Indy (#7 vs Pass, #4 overall)
Ro. Williams @ Minn (#23 vs Pass, #27 overall)
Ji. Smith vs Hou (#17 vs Pass, #31 overall)
B. Engram @ Ari (#16 Pass, #18 overall)

Thoughts? I was leading with Branch + Williams + Smith but I think there's a possibility that Engram will blow up in his first game back and was considering starting him over Branch who should have a tougher matchup in Indy.

Thanks in advance...

Smith Engram Branch

Leave Roy out until you know who will be chucking the ball in his general direction, plus Rogers is back from suspension which could affect his touches as well

Pick up Chatman cheaply as all GB can do is chuck the rock now. He had 97 yards last week even with Brett throwing 5 to the other team and handing one off to a fan.

Thanks for the suggestion, but Chatman isn't available in this league. Its a ten-team with a six-man bench so there are literally no free agent wideouts available that are worth picking up.

Top free agents who are playing this week are Randle El, Bethel Johnson, Jabar Gaffney and Nate Burleson in that order. Only ARE is projected to outscore Jimmy Smith / Bobby Engram and I don't think that projection is accurate with Big Ben sitting out.
