Need to drop 2 in a dynasty

Postby jnormy » Mon Aug 08, 2011 11:36 pm

Need to drop two from my dynasty roster, listed below, to make room for rookie draft picks. Some I was considering:

Gibson - talented but crowded WR situation
Smith (NYG) - will he ever be the same after serious knee surgery?
Barber - past his prime, but may be revitalized in Chicago
Choice - on the bubble in Dallas, but has produced when given the chance
Bennett - Bears say he'll get his, but again, a crowded WR corps
Snelling - will he ever get his shot to be "the man"?

Which two would you drop? This has been a VERY tough decision for me, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

12-team FB dynasty; non-PPR; start QB, RB, WR, WR, RB/WR, RB/WR, TE, K, DEF/ST
QB: D. Brees, K. Orton, A. Smith

ahhh...my buddy Norm. How is the league? New guy didn't destroy my dynasty yet did he? :-b ;-)

Any of the RB's directly backing someone up for you?

I would lean towards Bennett and Gibson.

Hey Moe! No, he hasn't destroyed your team yet, give him time, lol.

My only RB handcuff is Tate backing Foster, and he's still on my Taxi. Taking Arian over Glenn "Father" Coffee with my 3rd round rookie pick a couple years ago is the single best fantasy sports decision I ever made.

So you think NYG Smith is worth holding onto even coming off major knee surgery?

Hey, at least you can respond to my posts without any conflict of interest now. (By the way, nice dynasty article.) Good luck with your leagues! Norm

Smith has shown solid talent and I am not that fussed over his knee. Colston is on what... number 5 knee surgery?

Gibson has Clayton, Amendola, Salas and Pettis to compete with. Bennett just isn't that good. I can see Barber, Snelling and Choice as #2 on their respective depth charts meaning they could hold value.

See if you can deal any of them for cheap draft picks as cuffs.

I don't really feel strongly about any of these guys except Snelling.
DO NOT DROP HIM.
If Turner gets injured he will be AWESOME.

Not to mention Sims-Walker in StL. Gibson is one of the drops.

Then for me it's between Bennett and that scrub Roy Williams. As inconsistent and sloppy as Williams has been since the glory days in Detroit, I think I'd still favor keeping him slightly over Bennett. Blegh.

I've been getting "Gibson" a lot here and elsewhere. Guess I'll have to get over my man crush on the guy. B-)
