I lost Jordey Nelson the day after I drafted him in the second round. Suffice to say, I won't be able to replace him but I do need to add a WR to the back end of my roster. Which of the following should I pick up (if I don't list them they're probably on someone's roster)?:

-Ty Montgomey
-Phillip Dorsett
-Cody Latimer
-Doriel Green Beckham
-Andre Hawkins
-Cecil Shorts
-Reggie Wayne
-Riley Cooper
-Brandon Coleman (hasn't done much in preseason games)
-Sanu
-Britt
 
Of that group. Britt is a WR1 on his team. He's the best option for the first couple of weeks. I think Latimer is the stash guy for later. He's expected to be a big contributor in Denver and Sanders has a hamstring injury.
 
Not Cooper. He's like the 5th option in the passing game for the Eagles at this point. Only in the game/starting (for now) because he's an excellent blocker.
 
Well if this is a guy that you're adding for depth I'd take Sanu, if something happens to AJ Green like it did last year, Sanu was putting up WR1 numbers on almost a weekly basis. If you need someone that you have to put in your starting lineup ....I think I'd pick Dorsett, he's been running ahead of Moncrief and he's got the best QB in the league throwing him the ball...he likely won't catch a ton of passes but the ones he does should be big plays (to be honest if you have to start any of those guys on a weekly basis you should just be looking to made a trade).
 
If you want to look real deep, check out Devin Smith. He's missed the entire pre season with a rib/lung injury. If he were in camp, he'd have been drafted in most fantasy leagues. Another rookie option who is going undrafted due to injury is Breshad Perriman. Get these guys before the rest of your league starts reading reports about them looking good in practices.

Devin Smith is a Desean Jackson clone.
 
I'd take a flyer on Ty Montgomery, Randall Cobb is already nicked up and if he or Adams misses any time you will have struck gold. Probably not an option but did anyone draft Markus Wheaton? You drafted before the news about Martavis Bryant being out for 4 games.
 
I'd go Montgomery or Dorsett
I actually picked up Montgomery and Dorsett (cutting Cobb, the rookie RB from the Titans). Both GB and Indy are in the top 5 of teams that run 3 WR sets. We'll see what week one brings.

Montgomery.
 
Britt is the No. 1 WR on his team and the No. 2 WR is nursing injuries. He'll get the most targets out of the list you have here, though STL will rely heavily on the run
