Playoff Roster Tweaks

Postby jonniecakes » Mon Nov 27, 2017 6:03 am

Standard scoring 0.5 PPR. Trade deadline has come and gone so roster moves are strictly from the waiver wire through the rest of the season. My team is in my sig. I'm a little weak at the RB position but there are some guys on the WW that I'm willing to take a shot on. I was thinking of the following moves:

- Drop Powell for Burkhead - Powell seems to be a wasted asset as he never really gained control of this backfield
- Drop Morris for Mike Davis - this is a bit of a stretch. Davis looked good before he got hurt and Morris is another one who hasn't really secured the backfield job.

I think the first move is a no-brainer, epsecially how Burkhead is now being used but it is New England. :wall:

What do you guys think of these moves for the playoff run?

Powell for Burkhead is a given but I wouldn't trust any Seattle RBs.

I'd do the first one as well, but I wouldn't ever feel comfortable starting Burkhead if you're competing.

Definitely Burkhead > Powell, but I'd probably hold onto Morris.

I have to agree with all of this. Hopefully won't have to use/trust Burkhead but I'll grab just in case (and to prevent another owner from grabbing him as well). :dance: :twisted:

Burkhead has been on someone's roster in all of my leagues since like Week 2. So if he is there--grab him. Another guy that I do feel intrigued with and is essentially still available is Rod Smith--

Would you drop Morris for Burkhead? I may have some other moves to make.

For playoffs? Yes, but I cant imagine starting him if you made the playoffs
