Who do I cut?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Who do I cut?

Postby RedBengal » Thu Dec 07, 2017 6:47 pm

Our rosters lock, I need to cut somebody to get a back up kicker (bleep hate that). Also considering picking up Tannehill off waivers because of uncertainty with Luck.

I'm stuck between valuable handcuffs (Brown/Gio), a pending FA that scores TDs in a TD favored scoring system (Hill) and Conner, who could be the starter next year, or guys like Martin and Darkwa. Team is my sig.

Thoughts?

I think it's Darkwa or Conner. I don't think you'll be starting Darkwa again this season, and I don't think he gets anything more than a COP role next year. If Bell leaves, I have a very hard time imagining Conner getting the keys to himself. Brown could conceivably start for you if Gurley would be injured, Gio should start for you this week, and Martin/Hill should have some trade value in the offseason once the FA mill kicks in to gear.

My two cents.

1. Why can't you play Lambo? SEA @ JAX should be a low-scoring game with more FGs than TDs.
2. Dalton is a pretty easy cut for me in a 1QB league, and I wouldn't lose sleep over cutting Hill either.

My guess is that no add/drops are allowed for the remainder of the playoffs.

I wasn't thinking about the QBs. Dalton is definitely a good candidate.

Cut Mack Brown and move on. I can't image cutting Dalton and going with 1 QB in the playoffs if you are picking up a backup kicker.

Malcolm Brown
Then Connor - I think you'll be able to pick him back up later. I had to cut him loose this season too
Then Darkwa. I really don't believe in him though. Just a small flash. He's been in the league for years

I can’t cut Dalton. If Cousins gets hurt I don’t have a QB. The rosters lock. That’s why I need a kicker in the off chance that Lambo gets hurt.

What is a Mack Brown?

The odds are probably pretty low...I'd just roll with Lambo in that case.

Brown, Darkwa, and Hill can all be easily cut.
