Who to Cut for Jay Ajayi?

Postby diamonddave » Mon Nov 02, 2015 9:10 am

My team is in the signature below.

Jay Ayaji is close to coming off of IR so I'll need to activate him (and cut someone else) or cut him.

I'm thinking of dropping Bradford to clear space for him. Cutler is my backup to Palmer.

Is it worthy to drop Bradford for Ajayi? Is there someone else to cut to keep Ajayi?

Thanks for your help!

x2 Bradford has looked awful, and for all of the hate Cutler gets, he's not a bad backup fantasy QB.

I would say Lafell personally. You're deeper at WR than you are QB. Palmer and Cutler are older and unless you have a solid plan at getting younger at QB, then that's the route I'd take.

I would agree with Favrezilla - no need for all the low end RBs. That, or would try and trade Bradford or Lafell for a late pick if your league has a rookie draft. Any draft pick has potential - I took Stefon Diggs with the last pick of the rookie draft last year - 5th round, 12th pick (60th overall). Say he's doing OK right now for being "Mr. Irrelevant".

thanks for the feedback, y'all.
our league isn't big on trading or else i'd love to ship one of these guys out to create space on my roster. i've been trying to do some 2-for-1 trades but they've not worked out so well.
appreciate your thoughtful and timely responses!

I can't even fathom cutting LaFell or Michael over Bradford in a 1QB league. It's Bradford and not even close for me.
