MLS....come to STL!!!
Been seeing a few comments regarding Rawls being a drop candidate, figured I'd start a thread to discuss others in similar situations.
Obviously, if you league has large benches, anyone that has a chance at playing this season cuold be considered a good stash candidate, but what if you HAVE to make a choice?
Ryan Mathews - drop, he's looked inefficient, a couple GL TDs make his line look better than it is. 3 other RBs in house breathing down his neck for touches, and he's frail as they come at RB.
Jeremy Langford - drop, most were sour on him to begin with, looking like another 2nd half RBBC in chicago that makes both backs flex at best, unless Fox runs Howard into that lead back role before Langford gets healthy, just don't see it with Fox, he loves RBBC, practically invented it in Carolina.
Thomas Rawls - drop, CMike looks for real this go round, and who knows when Rawls will be healthy
Adrian Peterson - drop, I wouldn't be holding out hope he comes back for a playoff run in real NFL, let alone fantasy. Hate to say it, but the age/wear and tear might be finally catching up to the Immortal One.
Sammy Watkins - drop, who knows if they don't just shut him/the team down completely and start gearing up for 2017 already. Heard its a good year to have a high draft pick.
Dion Lewis - coming around on him being a stash candidate now that we are half way through his IR, pending how White/Foster look with Brady in the passing RB role for Pats. He's available in almost all of my leagues.
Tyler Lockett - I'm a fan, so I'd stash personally, but not looking good with a banged up Wilson so far this year. Wouldn't drop a producing player in the hopes Lockett carves out that same late season role he had last year.
Mike Floyd/John Brown - again, i'm a fan of Brown, so I'd stash, but Floyd has hit drop material if the bench is short, imo. I don't have time to wait around for a Fitz injury to make Floyd relevant. Johnson, Brown and Brown look to take all the exciting plays while Fitz moves the chains. Cardinals looking like they've been figured out, but we'll see this weekend. TB hung 30+ on the rams in Tampa, so Cards O needs a pick me up for the fringe guys to stay on my roster.
Ravens RBs not named Dixon, Fins RBs not named Foster - could be right around the corner of Forsett/West being made useless, all 3 options in Miami look weak, might have to do with their OL issues, not sure I'd be holding Foster right now either unless there weren't any other options.
Corey Coleman/Dante Moncreif - I wouldn't have dropped Moncrief to begin with, but Luck hasn't been looking good recently. Both of these guys look like nice add/stash players if you have an extra spot. Pryor to Coleman? doesn't get me excited as Pryor to Gordon, but if they connect, it could!
I know some easy choices to be made on some of these guys, but most of them are being held in at least 1 league that I'm in.
feel free to add your borderline players to the thread
