Need to drop ONE..pls help me decide..WHIR!

Postby Psychobroker » Thu Sep 17, 2009 1:56 am

12-team .5 PPR league with 6pt QB TDs and D/ST heavy scoring, otherwise standard scoring... need to drop ONE player... for a kicker:

QB: P Manning, Orton
RB: C Johnson, Slaton, Rice, D Brown
WR: R Wayne, Berrian, Moore, Henry, Bennett
TE: Schianco (sp?)
K: ??
D/ST: Vikings, Packers

I really wanted Earl Bennett -- longtime rapport w/ Cutler, 13 targets, .5 ppr league, not sold on Lance Moore or even Chris Henry atm, but can be patient.

Who do I drop? Henry? Brown? Moore?

the GOOD D/ST's are worth a lot, so please do not suggest I drop one. I am just biding my time before I cash one in. Thanks...and WHIR!

I'm gonna give you the best advice despite your request that I not.

There's no reason to have 2 D/ST.

Drop the Packers.

If you really are bent on keeping 2 dst's drop Henry. Palmer played horribly.

*cough*drop packers*cough*

Thanks fellas, but trust me - If the top 5-7 D/ST's weren't worth so much, I'd have already dropped the Pack. Fact is, they are worth more than Henry and Brown combined, so I am working on a package with them to shore up my TE and/or WR2, and then just pick a bye-week filler for Minny.

If defenses are worth too much, then I would suggest trying to trade one of them to someone. Roster spots are extremely valuable.

But if you must drop one of those players I would drop Henry. With Moore we don't yet know if Brees is going to spread the ball around as much as he did in week 1 so I would hesitate to drop him just yet.

I might also consider dropping Orton as an alternative. He didn't look good and the last minute deflection bomb really padded his stats. What caliber of QBs are on your ww? If they are the same caliber as Orton, then there's no reason to keep him.

Thanks for your response. I had thought about dropping Orton, with the following QB's available:

Byron Leftwich
Shaun Hill
Kerry Collins
Matthew Stafford
JaMarcus Russell
Brady Quinn
Mark Bulger

Lot's of question marks here, but I already have Leftwich, Hill and Russell ahead of Orton, so I'm thinking of dropping him for one of them now.

I'd give Orton another week or two, but if you're hell bent on dropping him, then I'd take a chance on **cough, cough** Stafford **cough, cough**.

Actually, to your original question, I'd drop Moore as Henry I think presently has more upside. The Saints have too, too many weapons right now and Moore appears to be lost in the shuffle (mainly because of the injury he had in training camp and the other wr's came to the forefront).......
