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

Drop Tyrod Taylor and Burkhead for a couple of waiver pickups?

Postby UATahoe » Mon Feb 05, 2018 1:37 pm

Thoughts on dropping these 2 and picking up from this pool. Some had mentioned dropping Williams and White as well.

Chris Godwin will be one. The other 1 from the below.

Barber
Darkwa
Ware
Deangelo Henderson

I like Peyton Barber as a 'wait and see' guy. If he somehow wins/keeps the lion's share of the workload in TB, he could have value.

I am. ASJ is already on my roster and the thought was to pick one of the 2 between him and Shaheen and keep Hooper. Leaning to Shaheen and dropping ASJ. I definitely won’t roster 3 TE’s though. Now I am trying to find some RB help plus the overwhelming response was to get Godwin back. Just trying to find out who should go and who I should target.

You should NOT be dropping Tyrod Taylor at all and definitely not for that pile of refuse. Clement and Williams should go instead of Burkhead.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I'd keep Tyrod as well or at least try to trade him. I already responded in the other thread about cutting Williams for Godwin. I wouldn't cut ASJ or Hooper, but wouldn't blame you for cutting Burkhead or even Golloday (I'm not a big fan so I'm sure most will disagree with this) for Shaheen.

Thanks for the input guys. Sounds like the RB’s available aren’t really worth making room for and I should just stay patient and not make a desperate reach. I will focus on trying to find a spot for Godwin. Maybe stay put with Hooper and ASJ.

I need to get a strategy together for getting the RB position shored up. Maybe trading the 1.06 for a RB closer to the draft I guess.
