Need some roster cut help, rookie draft today, 1st pick is 2.04

Postby UATahoe » Thu Aug 16, 2018 8:24 am

This is for team 1 in my signature. Right now, i will have to drop one player for sure in order to add a kicker. After that, my first pick is at 2.04 and i honestly feel like that will be the only pick i will be able to use. So 2 questions really.

Who do you drop in order to add a kicker? Initial thought here is dropping Keelan Cole for a kicker.

Assuming the August Rookie ADP is relatively close, are you rostering anybody with the 2.04 over another guy on my team?

My goal is to try and make a trade that nets me a slight player upgrade but opens up some space on my roster but that is proving to be difficult. At the 2.04, i am leaning towards Gesicki mainly based on TE need.

I'd drop J Hill, and yes I'd probably keep whoever I drafted at 2.04 for potential upside. Those guys on the backend of your roster don't have a ton of upside but have decent floors, so I'd look to get a raw rookie

I would drop Jeremy Hill, and look to draft Gesicki, Washington or Pettis at 2.04. Assuming Miller and Gallup or gone.

If Hill plays solid tonight, i think i will probably end up keeping him rostered. Just going with a hunch on that one and want to see how it plays out. Its looking like Cole will have to be dropped for a kicker and i guess maybe i drop Hurns for the 2.04 depending on who is there. Ideally i would like to trade off Brady but i dont see that happening.

So my initial plan is to drop Keenan Cole and 1 more. This will allow me to draft at 2.04 and at 3.06 for a kicker. Outside of that, I am thinking I should just hold everyone else. Really don't want to cut Jeremy Hill but it's looking like I may not have a better option. Should I drop Tyrod instead?

That's a good option too. I will see if he is interested at the draft.

I know you want to keep him, but I'd still say cut Hill. With Cole you might get a huge breakout player for years to come. You know what Hill brings. There is very little chance you'd ever start him this year. Half the games he'll give you nothing. At least with Cole you can strike gold.

I agree see about moving CJA. Maybe Jamaal Williams to the Ty or Jones owner/ Brieda to the McKinnon?
I also think you can cut Tyrod in a 1 QB league.

I think Brieda, Cole, PRich, Hill, Tyrod could all be on the waivers anyway in 2 months. It's all about hitting that upside player, IMO

Cole was a casualty for a Kicker (Jake Elliot).

Now I have drafted Peyton Barber and Charles Clay and will have to determine whether to keep or drop them.

a couple of your end of bench guys might net you another late 2nd. It might be a slight overpay, but if you have to cut someone anyway, i think that cancels out. It could get you one of the TEs/later WRs...or a rookie QB.
Too many teams and lineup changes to keep track of them all.

Our draft actually held pretty true to the rookie ADP listed on this site. Order was different but the players available at 2.04 were about the same. I was basically left with Gesicki or the next tier of dart throws. Felt like Burton was by far the better choice. Just never could get on board to draft Gesicki for some reason.

And i did roster Barber instead of Hill. All in all, i liked how my limited draft played out.
