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

Ranking my bum players...

Postby The Pyrate » Mon Feb 05, 2018 1:01 pm

SSSShhhhhhh!!!!! Don't tell my league-mates! I have somehow, after the season, managed to stash 9 players over our in-season max of 18 and 2 players over our off-season cap of 25. I grabbed alot off of IR and Taxi squads, and I now have the following dilemma:

Of my end-of-bench stash players, how would you rank them, and who would be your first 3 cuts?

My current thought is this (from best to worst)
S.Perine, RB WAS
R.Kelley, RB WAS
S.Ware, RB KC
T.West, RB BAL
B.Gabbert, QB ARZ

So, my cuts would be: Gabbert, West, and Ware in that order.

Anyone want to make a case for those three to stay and someone else going?
Full roster and league specs in sig:
THE PYRATES. Terrorizing this league since 2006 - Playoffs (06,07,10,11,13-16,18, 19)
4 Division titles, 5 Superbowls (2006, 2013-2016), 2013 CCFL Champions

QB: D.Watson, T.Bridgewater, C.Newton, AJ.McCarron, J.Hurts-R
RB: D.Henry, K.Drake, A.Dillon-R, D.Evans-R, R.Armstead, D.Lewis, F.Gore, B.Hill, D.Williams, D.Dallas-R,
WR: M.Evans, J.Smith-Schuster, C.Ridley, C.Kirk
TE: T.Kelce, C.Herndon
K: M.Gay, M.Prater
DEF Texans, Seahawks


14-team, 2 division, non-ppr with salary caps. Starts 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, K, DST
Pillage FIRST! THEN burn. Doing it the other way around is pointless.

I would probably keep Ware over Fat Rob. Both would probably need an injury to the incumbent starter to become fantasy relevant. I guess you could argue that Perine’s hold on the starting job in Washington is more tenuous than Hunt’s in KC, but I’d rather luck into the workhorse in KC than the workhorse in Washington.
Both are 12-team 1QB PPR dynasties

I know it is a 14 team league, but assuming this is the team in your sig, do you need 2 kickers?
Please speak to clarion contrarion before considering the use of vetos..

Gabbert, West, and whoever you like least of Ware/Kelley (whichever you don't cut will probably end up getting cut at some point anyway).

I'm for Ware as well. Before the injury this year he was ranked high- he might have several years of production in him if he finds the right home.

Unfortunately yes. My league closes transactions in week 13, so the two-kicker is a way to get through playoffs. Haven't opened up for business yet in 2018. When we do, I will probably remain with 2 because I like them, but if I can either improve on one or cut Viniteri's salary through RFA I will.

This is the way I'm leaning now. Good discussion, and I'll probably keep Ware over Kelley.

Ware's injury was brutal, but he was drafted higher and has better stats that Rob. 1200+ yd season before he went down. If that magic comes back even half-as-much he will match Rob's best season.
