It’s early, but who have you Cut Bait? (1 Viewer)

…all WRs as you can see.

12 Men PPR league with 6 bench spots. No IR either.

* Ollie Gordon (last night still wasn’t great other than the 1 run, and I think some of his usage was due to the short week)
* Donte Thornton (can’t rely on hoping for 1 deep pass)
* Sean Tucker (whispers of him maybe being 1B were far off)

Yearly league with a few keepers, so no long term impact here. Was able to get guys like Corum, Monangai, Wandale in place.
 
Dynasty..I cut ties with AJBrown before week 1 for Flowers and pick 1.12 in 16 team league. The pick turned into Egbuka who then got traded with Meyers for London and Godwin.
 
Redraft PPR: Traded Ladd & Swift for Zay and Treveyon. The Chargers WR corps is far more distributed than I anticipated and I don't think Ladd provides ROI as long as Keenan is around. Swift because, he's already on the injury report and I want off that ride.

Traded Worthy for JCM because I want off that ride too and I have Rice.
 
Switched out Ollie Gordon and Braelon Allen for Blake Corum and Kyle Monangai.

Likely just re-arranging deck chairs and could definitely be wrong but I feel like the path to relevancy (obviously outside of injury) is tougher for the first two than the last two. Achane and healthy Breece Hall is a tougher nut to crack than D’Andre Swift and Kyren
 
Thielen. Thought the trade would make him at least a flex appeal. I guess he still might be, but JJM's problems exacerbated the hes-getting-old problem.
 
Kyle Williams in redraft. Doesn't look like he is a part of the gameplan, and the offense isn't good enough to wait for him to become one.

Edit - Diggs has two games to straighten his sht out or he's gone as well.

I have been so disappointed with the Patriots WRs, especially Kyle Williams and Chism.
 
14 team redraft. Engram/fannin te’s. Do I drop engram for Kyle Monaghan? 5 bench spots. (Godwin, charbonet, benson, a 2nd qb and the 2nd te ). Starting djones over Kyler Murray this week.
Starting RBs cook/bijan.
 
Spread out over 8 teams, I’ve dropped 1 share of:

Tyrone Tracy For Q Judkins
Kaleb Johnson for B Tuten
Isiah Pacheco For W Robinson
Mark Andrews for K Pitts for L Musgrave (Kittle on IR)
Keon Coleman for Q Johnston
 
16 team Standard League, 3RR w/ double flex spots

STRONGLY considering cutting bait with Evan Engram (picked 6.4 over guys like Kraft, who went 9 picks later). Got Fannin Jr. in FAAB for $16, still waiting for Payton's snake oil comments ("he's gonna play a huge role for us") to ring true.

Chism was lucky to make the team. You're drafting him in dynasty as a guy who may be lucky enough to climb a bad depth chart, not as a weekly starter.
 
* Sean Tucker (whispers of him maybe being 1B were far off)


Yeah he was a guy in the pre-season everyone was like "get as many cheap shares as you can" and they're all looking worthless at the moment.

Tucker, Braelon Allen, and Pacheco are my next cuts. But at the moment I'm 2-0 and the league's highest scorer (hey look at me) and so I'm last in waiver priority every week and can't cut them for anyone worthwhile. Only guy I've gotten off waivers was Corum so far (dropped deadweight JJ McCarthy post-injury to make room).
 
I'm trying to stop myself, but Matt Golden .... had to drop Ayomanor to grab a QB with both Fields and Daniels out....he got scooped quickly. Wishing now I did Golden....oh well.
 
Josh Downs. Hate doing that but needs an injury or three.

Close to cutting bait with shaheed and Tracy, but they are talented in their own right and opportunity is there.

I'm keeping Tucker. White or Bucky will go down with injury sooner or later. Tucker will produce when he gets the chance..

Will be forced to cut Pacheco this weekend
I’m very close to doing the same but with bye weeks coming up, I may need his lackluster production at the RB spot given there’s little else out there in the deep roster league where I own him.
I'm a bye week crunch, I'm hoping to drop him close to game time and see if I can float him through waivers. I don't know if he would be picked up, I don't know what he's really worth barring a Hunt injury. My personal crunch is Tracy or keeping the Packers D, our D in this league skews high scoring so they're a unit worth stashing, I hope and figure anyway.

I will add to expand to this conversation, I did cut Loveland in a few TE premium leagues, again, a guy I'd like to get back after this weeks byes.
 
I cut Diggs in redraft after week 3 when I saw his target share decrease from week to week. So, of course his usage skyrocketed in week 4. Silly me!

Benches are short so I figured I would use the slot for a difference maker. I essentially replaced him with Slayton, so it’s not all bad.
