which player is expendable?

Postby deadpool23 » Sat Oct 21, 2023 5:18 am

I have four active safeties on my roster with a chance that Budda Baker comes off the IR this weekend and would need to make room. Can only hold four DBs and can not leverage any other positions to exceed that. Unfortunately, there is not too trade value with this position in my league.

IDP scoring is fairly standard with 1pt per tackle, .5 pt per assist, 3pts for INT, 2pts per sack plus the tackle so 3pts, forced fumbles are 1 pt and fumble recoveries are 2pts.

Question is who should be the odd man out as all of them seem to be ranked high and produce.
Baker, Budda ARI S
Branch, Brian DET S
Curl, Kamren WAS S
Hamilton, Kyle BAL S
Pitre, Jalen HOU S

Thanks in advance

Certainly an embarrassment of riches there -

Give me Pitre first, then Curl, then Baker, then the young pups last.

I appreciate the comment and followed that same logic on Sunday before kickoff. Ended up cutting Branch so will see if that hurts later in the season.

FWIW, I also would’ve put Branch as the lowest priority to hold onto out of that group.

Only caveat is Branch qualifies as CB, S on ESPN. If you have dedicated CB spots, he's a bit of a cheat code.
