Is This Roster Salvageable ? (1 Viewer)

[Pullo83]

WELP, I’m 100% sure this is the worst situation I’ve ever had at this point in a season. I’m also almost positive I can’t dig out of this hole. What do you guys think? This is a 12-team, half-PPR redraft league with weekly resets for waiver priority. I’m 1-4, in case this trash squad below doesn’t already imply that, lol:

Starters:
QB: Justin Herbert
RB: Kenneth Walker
RB: Zach Charbonnet
WR: Drake London
WR: Tetairoa McMillan
TE: Juwan Johnson
FLEX: TreVeyon Henderson

Bench:
Nico Collins (bye)
Tyler Allgeier
Woody Marks (bye)
Omarion Hampton
Jaxson Dart
Kendre Miller

IR:
Brandon Aiyuk

-------------------------------------

Waiver Options:

RB:
Hassan Haskins
Kimani Vidal
Sean Tucker
Justice Hill
Blake Corum
Isaiah Davis
Tyjae Spears
Kyle Monangai
Brashard Smith

WR:
Malik Washington
Dyami Brown
Dontayvion Wicks
Sterling Shepherd

TE:
Harrold Fannin
Mason Taylor
Jake Tonges
Theo Johnson
AJ Barner
Jonnu Smith
Cade Otton
Colston Loveland
Isaiah Likely
Taysom Hill

That's rough. You were a Nabers drafter I take it? I was high on him in the draft and have him for 2 of 4 teams.

To be honest, it's a long-shot. But not impossible. Waivers reset weekly ... if it's by inverse standings, that's one thing in your favor. If a startable RB emerges (with Hampton out) you have a chance. Take a stab at one of the Chargers guys. And from your bench it looks like you're trying to find that RB. Maybe TreV starts being useful.

I won a league last year from 1-4 so it can happen. Try to eek out some wins and maybe all that bad luck will turn for you.

Thanks for weighing in! No, not even a Nabers drafter. Just had the 12th pick in a normal snake format and went Nico-London at the turn, passing up on Puka and JT in the process. Pain.

It's not pretty but you can work waivers to get guys that end up being valuable. There are always guys that are kinda under the radar that end up being valuable, especially with injuries building up. I don't know if I care about the WRs you listed but you can take a chance if you want. There are several RBs and TEs on that list I like so you can make some moves there just fine.

I'm 2-3 in a 0.5ppr 12 team league and I'm just trying to make the playoff

I would pick up a TE Johnson or Taylor to replace Johnson, with Hill back I can see him regressing. I dropped Johnson last week for Taylor.

I also picked Aiyuk in the draft but I gave up on him and dropped him 2 weeks back I dont think he comes back this year. Guess if hes just taking up an IR spot its not as bad

Probably pick up Haskins and play him as your flex and cross all your fingers and toes.

Hope your not like me this week and playing the guy with Gibbs, Taylor and Judkins I may be going 2-4 lol


Good luck

Thanks! I ended up dropping Juwan Johnson for Mason Taylor. I also dropped Dart to add Colston Loveland to my bench. He was a big part of the Bears' game plan a few weeks ago before leaving the game with that hip injury, and we know how much draft capital the Bears invested in him. Maybe he becomes a back half of the season TE1. I decided not to pick up either of the Charger backs, and apparently so did the rest of my league. I'll probably regret this, but I'm gonna roll with both Seahawks guys as my RBs, plus Henderson in the flex. Jesus take the wheel, lol.
