I think no. This one's actually got a lot of depth to it. SASSY and LOLLY use up Y which is critical to forming 5 letter words. S is pretty good too. Preserving your vowels seems to be an important concept. You want to minimize the usage of them. But if you get a single yellow value you can dance around it safely. Or if you get a single green of it and no blacks, you can go for a word using two of that vowel which hopefully doesn't prove to be correct.

WHIZZ seems like it could be a very strong opening move.

VEXED looks pretty promising too.
