Bye week fill in CB help

Hi Guru! This is just for week 5 only. I need to pick up CB from following list. I will probably drop this player after week 5 to cover other bye week position. So, please rate these CBs based on week 5 matchup only.

DJ Moore vs Det (has been hot last couple of weeks and Det will pass all day)
R Barber vs SF
R Mathis vs Cin
S Shields vs Atl
A Cromartie vs NE (excellent matchup, but he has been incosistent)
B Browner vs NYG (8 tackles last week and good matchup)
J Allen vs Oak (7 tackles last week and coach said he will play more)
G Quinn vs Oak (has up and down season so far)
D Robinson vs GB (playing against GB has been fantasy gold this year)
C Munnerlyn vs NO (sleeper this year and NO is excellent matchup. Brees makes opposite all CBs stud this year )

My gut feeling goes either J Allen or Munnerlyn. What is your suggestion?

Re: Bye week fill in CB help

Browner is a risky choice, but I think he could have a big day. Trufant is questionable to play in Week 5 and Browner may have to cover Nicks which he will have a difficult time doing as he's not a very good cornerback. However, he has big enough to make tackles and bring Hicks down. Picking up cornerbacks is really a lot of times based on a gut feeling, but I like his upside this week.

Re: Bye week fill in CB help

Thanks for the great call Guru! 17 points by Brown last week!!! I have another Bye week fill in for CB position in week 7. Since Brown play against pass happy Colt McCoy and Cle in week 7, would you recommend me to hold on to him till then?

Yes, I like Browner as a solid CB2 option moving forward. I would keep him.
