Gates Woes - What to do? Who to Drop? (WHIR)

Postby cypres0099 » Sat Sep 24, 2011 8:07 pm

Well, my team is a 2 person keeper league. See my signature.

Gates is apparently out for tomorrow because of his foot. Unfortunately, I don't have a backup TE. Is there anyone who wouldn't drop Peyton Manning to pick up a TE? There's still a possibility that manning would come back this season and I could keep him for next year. Would you drop someone else? I like my benches upside at this point. Except maybe Bush, but I want to give him one more game.

Seeing your team, I personally would drop Moore or Bush. Im not buying Moore at this point. He played tons of snaps because of everyone was hurt and it was a shootout. More times than not, Oakland will run, run, run and run some more. They play a conservative passing game and Jacoby Ford is a focal point of that.

Hold onto Manning if you want, but with your squad, i think id prefer Nicks and Rice if its PPR.

Thanks for the thoughts. My league is Non PPR and we keep the player in the round we drafted in. I got Manning in the 4th round. That would be a good deal.

Considering it's a keeper... Id hold onto Peyton.

I'd drop MSW for the TE.


Help me out:

I decided to drop MSW and pick up Scott Chandler. Thanks for the help guys. Hopefully MSW doesn't go off now.

He wont Amendola will be back soon and Bradford and MSW have had terrible chemistry.
I drink because of the 1998 NFC championship game.
