Keep holding Greg Olsen or drop?

Postby cwill1122 » Fri Oct 20, 2017 11:27 am

I am in a 12 team PPR redraft league and I've been holding onto Olsen since he went down with a broken foot. I'm reading that he may start practicing week 10 and eligible to play week 12, but no guarantees. I would like to pick up Chris Ivory who could be in for big workload if fournette doesn't play this week. Do I drop Olsen? I don't have really anyone else I can drop at the moment. Any insight would be appreciated!

I'd be okay dropping him. But,

1) Who is/are your current TE(s)?;
2) Who are available on the waiver wire?; and
3) What is your current record and standing for playoff position?

Those answers would impact my decision.

Hunter Henry and Tyler Kroft. Austin Hooper and Ed dickson available. I'm in 2nd place (5-1)

with Henry I'd be happy to drop Olsen. I wouldn't expect a lot from ivory though in the long run.

Agreed.

I'd probably drop Kroft before Olsen. Still, you could drop Olsen and likely pick him back up next week. I'll also bet that LF plays this week...
