Fantasy football people... I have Andre Brown (NYG) and was going to activate him off the IR, but to do so I need to drop either Marques Colston (NO WR), Dwayne Bowe (KC WR), Bilal Powell (NYJ RB), or Michael Vick (QB PHI). Now, I would think to drop a RB in favor of a RB to stay positional neutral, but the two WRs score less/game than Powell. Vick is also my 3rd String QB (behind Cutler and Dalton) plus with the game Foles just had… I don’t know what to do…. any thoughts? To give you a little more background, I can play 1 QB, 2 RB, 1 RB/WR, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 DP, 1 D/ST, & 1 K and have 6 on the bench. (16 total) My current roster is: QB: Jay Cutler, Andy Dalton, & Michael Vick RB: Chris Johnson, Giovanni Bernard, Adrian Foster, Bilal Powell, and Andre Brown WR: T.Y. Hilton, Jericho Cotchery, Marques Colston, & Dwayne Bowe TE: Jimmy Graham & Coby Fleener DP: Alterraun Verner D/ST: Seahawks K: Shaun Suisham There are many teams in this league so I am actually doing fairly well despite this roster... So I have 17 now, need to drop 1... I am not allowed to drop Jimmy Graham or Arian Foster as per league rules Thoughts???
There is no reason to carry three qbs when you can only play one so I'd probably drop one of them. The problem with dropping Vick is that he could win you the league if he comes back and start.
Exactly... I'm torn... I know I shouldn't carry 3 QB's, but Vick is a big risk health wise coupled with Foles's emergence... Cutler and Dalton have also out-performed Vick on average... so I'm lost here...
It's tough. If you think foles continues to start then Vick is the easy choice. If you think Vick will come back then I'd probably drop Cutler or Dalton, probably Cutler because he is a pansy. What kind of qbs are available in free agency?
I don't know about Foles... I live in the Philly market, but haven't heard anything regarding what the teams plans are... These are the top 10 available: Sam Bradford*, StL QB IR 114 total points 12.7 points/game Terrelle Pryor, Oak QB 114 total points 14.3 points/game Geno Smith, NYJ QB 110 total points 12.2 points/game Ryan Tannehill, Mia QB 101 total points 12.6 points/game Jake Locker, Ten QB 97 total points 12.1 points/game Mike Glennon, TB QB 72 total points 9.0 points/game Christian Ponder, Min QB 70 total points 8.8 points/game EJ Manuel, Buf QB 61 total points 6.8 points/game Chad Henne, Jac QB 57 total points 7.1 points/game Brandon Weeden, Cle QB 54 total points 6.0 points/game
I'd drop Dalton or Cutler. Locker, Pryor, tannehill are all fine pickups if it doesn't work out for you with Vick. The upside Vick has is something id keep until it's definite he isnt the starter anymore.
