Desperation QB add, Eli Manning or Jeff Driskel (CIN)

Postby hockeyBjj » Wed Nov 28, 2018 7:58 am

The saddest thing about this question is that it's not for a superflex league. It's a 10 team, 1 QB, 6pt TDs where every freaking QB is rostered. I lost Andy Dalton as my Russell Wilson backup, and trades and stupidly waiver wire as well shuts down after playoffs start next week

So I need at least a warm body backup that's NFL starting for if Russell gets hurt. These are seriously the best two options available. Trent Taylor would be my drop.

Which one? I've been trying last two weeks to get a QB upgrade over Russ for a championship chance, even taking on age like Brees or Big Ben, but no luck.

just take either. Honestly if you lose Wilson, you are probably at a disadvantage with either one

Flip a coin. You should be fine with Wilson. If something happens to him, neither will really help you compete anyway.

Wilson has been fairly durable. As far as backups go, Driskel has more upside ROS and long-term, so I'd go with him.

Neither will help you win it. But I’d take my chances with Eli. And then hope the NYG blow up.

Flip a coin.

And Dalton should not be your backup QB, especially in a ten team 1QB league. You should have a better backup than that. Dalton is a QB3.
