I'd be ok dropping him. I'm only holding in SuperFlex/2QB leagues.

With how devalued QBs are in 1QB leagues; I think you can rest easy knowing that even if he becomes the starter again and is solid, he still wouldn't be worth much of anything.

Even in 1 QB leagues I like to carry a young developmental QB, especially if either of my main two QBs are older. If you feel Geno is the real deal (and he certainly looked a lot better this year so far) then I'd say hold on to him if you can because Fitz certainly isn't the long term answer.

But I think it boils down to your particular league...do teams normally carry 3rd QBs (in mine below, almost all the non-starting prospects are rostered), if so you may want to do the same unless you draft or trade well you may find yourself in a few years QB poor.

If you have short benches then that makes it really hard to carry a 3rd QB.
And finally if there is a much better deep prospect at RB or WR then that 3rd QB makes an easy target to drop.

Many will say that in 1 QB leagues that QBs are worthless. While that may be true in many leagues, I've found that not to be the case for the most part. QBs are hard to trade for in my leagues, people want a lot, even for QB 2s that aren't clear starters. So if your league is the same, then you need to value Geno accordingly. In a league like mine I guarantee if the Geno owner dropped him he'd be picked up by someone immediately.

Welcome to the forums!

What's your league size and scoring? 16- vs. 12-team and 4- vs. 6-pt. change a lot of things with QB value.

Is there an option to put him in an IR spot? I know IR rules vary from league to league, but some leagues would probably allow that.

I'm sorry to hear you own Geno :thumbdown:

Is there anyone in the league desperate at QB that you can get anything for him... anything? 4th round pick? 5th round pick?

12 team, standard scoring, 4pt passing TDs. 27 man rosters

Most teams (8 out of 12 I think) have 3 or more QBs

Unfortunately not - we're on Fleaflicker so we do have an IR option but in our league it's used only for taxi squads

I'm sorry too! :sick: Hard to say at this stage because we've just done our startup draft this summer so everyone has at least decent options for now.


Thanks for the responses everyone - think I'll keep hold of him for now unless anyone offers anything decent for him, re-evaluate a couple of weeks into the season
