What format are we talking here? Do you only have Ocho to drop?

I think I like Mike Williams and/or Obamanu the best in standard; I'd give Bess and/or Williams a shot in PPR; and I like Collie's upside down the stretch if you have a spot to stash him. I would avoid the other guys with the options I mentioned and while considering that these guys are prolly a WR3 or worse on your squad (right?) ;-)

It's a PPR league. Start 9 players and 6 bench. I can drop anybody. I just want to drop Ocho because he sucks and I don't think he's worth holding on to for the playoffs.

OK, then I think I'd rather have BMW and Bess than White and Ocho from here on out. That gives you a more consistent guy in Bess (vs. White) and a better high-upside guy in Williams (over 85) - he's been a beast compared to Ocho when he's been out there, especially in PPR ;-D

My bad. I forgot to update my signature. I picked up and a TE and K for the playoffs.

Do you recommend two defenses? I'm also looking at Visanthe Shiancoe or Greg Olsen over Rob Gronkowski

I like carrying a second D, especially for matchups like TB has. As for the kicker, I'd only carry a second one if your league doesn't allow any FA acquisitions in the playoffs and has no clause to allow for injuries - is that the case?

Kind of a tossup on the TEs, but I think I'd barely rather have Visanthe over Gronk...

There is no FA pick ups during playoffs in my league. Playoffs start next week. I ended up picking up Visanthe Shiancoe. He does have sleeper potential but he is just going to be on my bench just in case Tamme goes does. Tamme is a must start.

Two defenses it is. So now time to get rid of Ocho.

Yeah, gotta keep the second K if there are no FA acquisitions. I think I'd drop Ocho for Williams since we're talking WR4 here and he has the most upside other possibly Collie, who's and even bigger injury risk. I'd stay away from anyone other than Bess if you want a safer option "C" outta that group though ;-D
