This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Who do I cut???

Postby Disaman74 » Thu Aug 13, 2015 2:10 pm

I have a 12 team 2QB dynasty league where I need to meet roster limits by Saturday. As a result, I need to cut two players from my roster. My problem is that the end of my roster has a ton of similar players (High upside/low floor) and I've having trouble determining who to cut? My initial thought was Davis and Moncrief, but if Charles goes down Davis could be a top 12 RB. I could cut Eifert, since I own Gronk, but I think that a breakout is coming for him. Cut Vereen since this is a standard league that caps his upside? I'm trying to setup some trades, but I doubt I can get that done before the deadline. So which two do you recommend me sending to the wire?

Our rookie draft will be later in the month.

wow. there's some insight. I'm working on a couple of packages to upgrade my QBs, but like I said previously - that wont be done before the deadline. The end of my roster also isn't going to get me the QB upgrade either, so that's irrelevant to the question.

Then I say Monrief/Cruz or Moncrief/Davis. Regardless of what he might be, Davis is still a handcuff and Cruz is no guarantee to be the WR2 on his team.

Eifert has TE1 upside and will definitely get picked up if you drop him.

Moncrief and Cruz. Can you draft FA's during the rookie draft, or only rookies? Based on what I have read Moncrief might be the 5th option at WR, and behind 2 TE's and a RB for targets. You have Beckham, unless he gets hurt, and then your screwed anyways, you won't ever start Cruz.

If you keep Moncrief this year as a stash, will you be able to keep him next year? Probably not.

Rookies can be kept for 4 years. This would be year 2, so I could keep him for 2 more after this year.

Right here. As you said, non ppr kills Vereens value and Cruz had his 15 minutes already.
