Drop 1 of these for DEF? (1 Viewer)

NeverEnough

Philly is on their bye so I need a DEF this week in my PPR redraft. Right now, I'm thinking roll without one this week or drop Novak & roll without a kicker instead.

Only thinking this way because my RB2 slot is junk now that DWill is back to the bench.

Would you drop any of the following for a defense for one week or just roll without one?

McKinnon, both Washingtons, Ty Williams, Beasley, Dixon, Sims, DWill, Tannehill (He's my backup QB, but there is nothing on the WW for a QB if I lose him),

 
If you're 0-2, obviously no. 

I still think it's too early to risk losing a game. Perhaps wait on it till last minute and make a swap for a defense. You might be able to get back who you drop.

Probabably Deandre. But its close with what you have.  If Dez ends up playing, maybe Beasley, but unfortunately that's a 4pm game. Good luck!

 
Is the Philly D that valuable that you wouldn't just drop them for a different defense this week?  They are ranked 6 in my money league but most teams are carrying 1 defense so there are usually plenty to choose from.

 
yea, I would just drop Eagles D, they've been doing well, but I wouldn't call them irreplaceable moving forward, ND you might even get them back after this week if you're lucky anyway...

Unless you're like a 20 team league, there should always be a serviceable D on the wire.

14 team & the WW has just a few garbage DEF left on it so if someone else picked up Philly D, I'm screwed there. They are currently the #3 D in this league. Most of the guys has 2 DEF rostered.

 
I personally would never play without a defense.  I would drop the OAK Washington for a defense and hope you can add him back next week.  I think the other RB are getting too much buzz.  I wouldn't drop DeAngelo as suggested above because if Bell goes down we know he is a clear RB1 for fantasy teams.
