Roster cuts

Postby Oddball456 » Fri Aug 06, 2021 7:40 am

10 teamer with tackle heavy scoring. Start 2DL, 3LB, 2DB, 1 Def Flex

Keepers are:
Nick Bosa
D Hunter
Chris Jones

Leonard
Warner
T Edmunds
Jayon Brown
Alex Singleton (I think)

J Chinn

Other guys I have currently, of which I of course need at least one more DB so I will start with them:
John Johnson DB | CLE
Chuck Clark DB | BAL
Xavier McKinney DB | NYG

Alex Highsmith DL,LB | PIT
Kerry Hyder DL | SEA

Ja'Whaun Bentley LB | NE
Troy Reeder LB | LAR

So which 1 or 2 BD is worth keeping, and which of the others are keepers or clear cuts? I am leaning towards just keeping one DB and maybe Highsmith since DL can be hard to fill.

Edit: I need to cut down my overall roster a fair amount, so these DEF guys are up against P Lindsey, N Harry type OFF guys at the end of the roster

Your core defense is very strong, so you can go with just one db for now and plug in a fa later.
I'd lean towards keeping an offensive player over Highsmith, even Singleton. But it might depend on your roster depth. In a ten team league, Harry, and perhaps Lindsey, can be left on the waiver wire.

not sure i'd keep singleton, his numbers were more due to volume than talent. not that they've upgraded massively, but there is more competition.

having to start 2 DBs in a 10 teams league, i'd only keep chinn, you can stream DBs pretty easily. i would have said to keep johnson if he stayed on the rams, but when they change team there's always a chance they won't be as good for fantasy (or at all).

as for the rest, the only one i'd keep is alex highsmith. the melving ingram signing dampens expectations some, but i believe he's going to be a starter, and quite a good one at that.

keep your eyes open for raises in snap counts during the season, there should be plenty of good to great IDP options on the wire with those settings, so i'd focus on offense with the keepers.
