Bortles or Not (POLL)

Postby FKC » Wed Aug 16, 2017 7:43 am

For team in my sig. Is Bortles droppable or is he ahold? Is Bortles still on anyone's roster? I'm currently thinking of holding onto him in hopes he has leap forward this season. Wondering if I should consider dropping him to make room on my roster when the cut deadline arrives.

I have about 8 to 10 players to cut before the roster deadline in a few weeks. Updated my roster in sig.

Despite how bad he is, Bortles is still a starting NFL QB and decent fantasy backup QB2. I'd drop Megatron or the BAL defense before I dropped Bortles.

I see 7-8 guys I would cut before Bortles, including Goff.

That's 10. Goff makes 11 if you cut another QB.

I'd keep him as your backup since you don't really have any other decent options. As bad as he is in real life, he's put up decent fantasy numbers. Like Skip posted above, you have plenty of other pieces you can drop instead.

I know he Isn't the greatest qb in the NFL but two years ago was QB4/5 and last year was top 12. Fournette will help him he is not droppable
