Hi all, thanks in advance for looking through this post. 12 team 0.5 ppr league, with two keepers per season. I was able to snag pretty much everyone off the waiver wire this week. From this huge bounty, I need to drop one guy, in order to pick up a kicker again.
First question, who do I drop? Need to drop one
Second question - Which two of these RBs to I start? In the draft, I went WR heavy. My RB situation is a mess
Charles Sims vs LA
Shane Vereen vs WAS
Jeremy Hill vs Den
Devontae Booker @ Cin
Kenjon Barner vs Pit
Dwayne Washington @ GB
Cameron Artis-Payne vs Min
Other Positions:
QB: I'm starting Matt Ryan. In theory I could drop Matt Stafford. BUT... next three week are rough for Matt Ryan... CAR, @ DEN, @ SEA. Have to keep Stafford, right?
WR: I'm starting Julio, Amari Cooper, and Dez. I could drop Golden Tate. Is this the right move? I will need a 4th WR to get through the bye week gauntlet.
A Two for One trade doesn't really help me, because I want to keep ALL of these RBs, not lose two of them. Plus, I'm not looking for another WR. Doubt anyone in my league would trade a stud RB for two of these lottery tickets.
Thanks again for looking through this.

Charles Sims vs LA
- Doug Martin went down for probably three weeks?
- Should get a good share of the workload.
- Not seriously consider dropping him.
- Seriously consider starting him.
Shane Vereen vs WAS
- Jennings has a thumb cast. I suspect he will get his hand dinged up again during the game.
- Good matchup against WAS woeful run D
- Not seriously consider dropping him.
- Seriously consider starting him.
- Hasn't shown much this season.
- Multiple injuries.
- Hope he gets back to last year's form, but Christine Michael may have already surpassed him.
- Hate to drop him due to draft position, and name value.
Jeremy Hill vs Den
- Has become seriously touchdown dependent.
- Definitely can't start him this week vs Den.
- I would hate to drop him, but his ceiling is sort of a known quantity. Not expecting much more than 10 points a game, and that's IF he gets a touchdown.
Devontae Booker @ Cin
- I have him flagged with Keeper status.
- Huge lottery ticket if CJ Anderson goes down.
- Can't drop him, right?
Kenjon Barner vs Pit
- I have him also flagged with Keeper status.
- Lottery ticket if Ryan Matthews goes down, which is only a matter of time, right? Has there ever been a season where Matthews played all 16 games?
- Can't drop him, right?
Dwayne Washington @ GB
- Ameer Abdullah on IR. Should get much larger role.
- Detroit is a competent offense that can move the ball.
- Is he worth a start this week?
- I also can't drop him, right?
Cameron Artis-Payne vs Min
- Jon Stewart estimated out for 3 weeks? He's ahead of Fozzy Whitaker.
- High powered offense, but will Cam eat into the rushing TDs?
- Is he worth a start?
- Can't drop him, right?
