League expansion from 8-10 teams, who do I hold?????

[05tl270]

So our 8 team dynasty league is expanding to 10 teams. It's a full PPR single qb. We are able to protect 10 players and we will have 4 players from each team drafted by the 2 new teams. Here is my current roster with the 10 marked that I'm considering protecting.

L. Jackson**
T. Lawrence**
T. Lance**

J. Taylor**
D. Swift**
Jav. Williams**
S. Barkley
T. Etienne
T. Pollard
J. Patterson

J. Jefferson**
J. Chase**
C. Lamb**
C. Godwin
D. Mooney
V. Jefferson

K. Pitts**
Z. Ertz
R. Gronkowski
A. Troutman

The 10 marked above is my initial thoughts but was considering no protecting Lamar Jackson and keeping Travis Etienne?

Please let me know what you all think I should do or stick with the 10 I've already selected.

Thank you,
Heath

[Gator Sens]

I would protect:
Taylor
Swift
Williams
Jefferson
Chase
Lamb
Godwin
Pitts
Jackson

Your preference between Barkley or Etienne. You could keep them both and hold zero QBs based on the format and number of teams.

You really dont need to protect those qbs in a 10 team 1 qb. They really just dont have that kinda value. For me I'd either not keep a qb and add on Godwin, ETN and Bark or pick my favourite (LJax easy) and then drop ETN

[zaner75]

Another vote for not protecting any QBs

[repkllrs]

Zero QB for me as well.

[srlarson]

piling on....keep young position players...or older player that have trade value...top 4 rb's, top 4 wr, and pitts....and 10th spot between etn and mooney.....if te premium and can flex ertz has an outside.....

with Etn's health and position.....I keep Mooney..and have 5 solid WR's

[Bennyblanco22]

L. Jackson (definitely not keeping either of your other qbs in a 1qb league)

J. Taylor
D. Swift
Jav. Williams
S. Barkley (Taylor, swift, javonte obviously locks but no qualms taking Etienne over Saquon here)

J. Jefferson
J. Chase
C. Lamb (Slam dunk WR core)

K. Pitts (no brainer)

** My 10th pick is between Etienne and Godwin I think. I could see an honest argument between keeping Godwin for sure, and deciding between Saquon and Etienne as the 10th. Saquon has looked really bad at times, and he's close to his APV (age/production/value) apex which would diminish his value immensely if he doesn't have a big blow up season this year. I'm not a big Barkley fan but there's reason to hold hope now that Gettleman and Judge are gone.

I think I'd be tempted to gamble on Godwin and his potential new situation, and Etienne over Barkley to be honest. We know Etienne is going to be fed heavy with Jrob gone, ballooning his value a bit more than it probably should be if they both were there.

[Dynasty DeLorean]

I would certainly protect Saquon over one of the qbs

I have bolded 11 players that I think are your top 11.
So we have to remove one player.
I think it comes down to Barkley, Etienne, or Godwin.
I think it's probably one of the rbs for me..I guess it would be cutting Etienne.

These would be my picks as well, including Etienne as my 11th man.

Same for me, and I'm probably cutting/trading if possible, Barkley. At this point, I'd prefer gambling on Etienne than Barkley.

Nice work, abloom!!

I would keep all these guys minus Lamar. Just draft best available QB or trade for one later.

[Bay City Original]

I definitely would not keep 3 QBs and could potentially keep zero.

Let's take a different approach... if you can only lose 4 players, these are the most likely players you'd lose (if we put the QBs in the pool):
TLaw, LJax, Lance, Barkley, Entienne, Godwin, Mooney

Being a 1 QB league, and being sure that there might be other QBs out in the pool, I'd keep Barkley and Goodwin.

Most likely, TLaw, LJax, Entienne, and Mooney would be picked and you would get Lance back.

I'd be happy with a core of
Lance
JT, Swift, Javonte, Barkley
Jefferson, Chase, Lamb, Godwin
Pitts

That's pretty sick and you'd probably forget that you had the other four players in your line-up. You could throw a Kirk Cousins (if Lance doesn't work out) in to the QB spot and still win.

Well stated. I was trying to articulate this exact train of thought last night, but gave up. This is how I would play this scenario.
