Panic Mode! Who are you giving up on? (1 Viewer)

[Jack White]

Ryan Tannehill looked terrible, I don't know if a coaching change can help. I'll keep him on the bench rather than dropping him but I was really excited about his potential this year.

I was too, but I am contemplating dropping him.

 

[dgr81]

I think it still falls on the QB..

Call it chemistry, or a lack of trust..

But the Stud QB needs to feed his Stud WR!

Evans stats were shameful..

....? Evan was shadowed by Josh Norman the entire day, whom is going to end up a top 5 CB overall by the end of the year.

no he wasn't. tillman was on evans all game.

 

[Shutout]

One more week of Andre Johnson. If he has no pulse after a return to Texas, the man is not worth rostering.

 

[Insein]

Roddy White has no pulse left. My dynasty team is in shambles. He's just a name now. Can't see him eating roster space anymore even though the waiver wire is picked over. Cutting bait hoping someone better drops to the wire.

Gave up on him in 2013 when he screwed us all.

 

[NeverEnough]

Cooks & maybe Roddy

 

[chasyone]

I'm giving up on Demarco and CJ. Demarco was my first round pick. I got an offer of Gore for him. I may do it to switch things up. I'm 1-3

CJ was my keeper from last year and I'm not sure I wanna roster him anymore

Same here, but also will give him a week after the bye to see if the coaching change breathes any life into him and the offense.

 

[DerekR]

Dropped CJ Anderson this morning. Felt great

 

[Otis]

Dropped Bridgewater

Dropped Reed

Very closing to giving up on Manning. I'd be undefeated if I started Mariota over him. With these new offense, Peyton may be just about toast for fantasy purposes.

 

[habsfan]

Anyone can feel free to buy Jonathan Stewart from me. Cheap. I can't get myself to just dump him into the free agent pool.

Not "panic" or droppable but I will need to really have my back against the wall to consider starting him again...

 

[Deranged Hermit]

I listen to a ton of fantasy podcasts at my desk at work. I think the CBS one was the one who said that Stewart might be the first no-doubt team starter that doesn't deserve to be rosterable.

 

[Hot Diggity Dog]

Zach Ertz, calgon take him away.

 

[zamboni]

Zach Ertz, calgon take him away.

He's got one more week from me with Reed hurt.

Ertz did have a short TD nullified by an illegal formation, but still the numbers are not there for the entire Eagles' passing game.

With Olsen on a bye I am forced to play this guy this week lolz.....

Yea, you can't drop him, but you can't start him either. Brutal. It wouldn't be so bad if they used him in the red-zone but every time they cross the 20, Tolbert gets subbed for him. It's possible they go heavy zone-read and his value spikes a little but he won't be more than a low RB2 rest of the year.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

In the two leagues where I own(ed) Charles Johnson, I held onto him for now because both leagues have large roster sizes. But now I have a bye week crunch in one, and dropped him there. Holding in the other one at the moment; that team is pretty strong, so he's doing no harm staying on my bench, where he's been all year.

 

[SCT]

Dropped CJ Anderson this morning. Felt great

Geesh. I traded him for Marshawn....

 

[drm1125]

Dropped CJ Anderson this morning. Felt great

Geesh. I traded him for Marshawn....

Wow! I'm not sure I want either guy. I have Lynch, he's been very disappointing.

 

[Braktastic]

I dropped CJ Anderson just to be freed from the temptation to start him again.

 

[BigDave]

Dropped Cooks for Decker

10 team league

Didn't turn out like everyone in preseason thought

I'm happy with Decker going forward. Fitz is getting him the ball.

 

[BigDave]

Oh yeah, Ellington too.

Got Duke Johnson instead.

AZ going with CJ and DJ. Both playing well in Ellington's absence. Don't see Ellington staying healthy. Tired of him on the bench.

 

[BearsFan4Life]

Dynasty .. as a Charles owner. .giving up on Knives Davis for Charcandrick West

 

[kittenmittens]

Brandin Cooks.

I'm also concerned about Devonte Adams in Dynasty. He's only 22 and should be able to build rapport with Rodgers, but not only are the likes of Cobb and Nelson there next year but Jones is also a possibility. The Packers also have a bunch of other promissing young WR. I want to invest in pkayers in these type of offenses but for me the risk is too high that Adams' share of that pie is too small.

 

[rascal]

Let's see...

Lamar Miller

Latavius Murray

John brown

Devante Adams

Andre Johnson

Marshawn Lynch

Or my 1 and 3-7 round picks. I'm 0-4.

2nd round pick was dez. Also drafted the awesome Charles Johnson.

Latavius really? Non ppr?

 

[Quasimoto]

One more week of Andre Johnson. If he has no pulse after a return to Texas, the man is not worth rostering.

In leagues with 12 or fewer teams I think that ship has sailed.

If you can't start him, then you can drop him. If there is a player on the wire that you think has more upside, then do it.

 

[Quasimoto]

Within the past month?

 

[SCT]

Yesterday!

 

[Madden Curse]

Really close to dropping Cooks and CJAnderson.

 

[DirtyCashDylan]

Oh yeah, Ellington too.

Got Duke Johnson instead.

AZ going with CJ and DJ. Both playing well in Ellington's absence. Don't see Ellington staying healthy. Tired of him on the bench.

Interesting. I dropped David Johnson in redraft since Ellington was coming back.

I wish you the best and hope he does well for you. However, being in a 10 team redraft with no flex, I couldn't see him being my RB2. CJ1K is the starter and Ellington will lose some to David Johnson. So, how many touches does he get??

I just can't HOPE that he stays healthy, gets more touches and gets enough points to warrant RB2.

 

[Chaka]

Andre Johnson - he looks done. He can't get open anymore, the Colts line stinks too bad for him to eventually get open, and the younger guys are just better at this point.

I cut bait on him before last week but if he's ever going to have a big game with Indy it should be against Houston.

 

[Chaka]

Cooks & maybe Roddy

I can see giving up on Roddy if for no other reason than age but I just can't see cutting bait on Cooks yet. He's young, looked really dynamic last year and still leads his teams in targets. The Saints looked to be a mess as a whole the first four games but I still think they can turn it around.

 

[Chaka]

Let's see...

Lamar Miller

Latavius Murray

Andre Johnson

Marshawn Lynch

PPR or non-PPR I cannot fathom cutting bait on backs who are getting 20+ touches per game and averaging 4.4 YPC.

 

[Cliff Clavin]

Anyone can feel free to buy Jonathan Stewart from me. Cheap. I can't get myself to just dump him into the free agent pool.

I got shot down trying to trade him for Vick (start 2QB). Not much lower value than that. Might be able to get a mid-tier kicker or D for the guy. Of course if I cut him, he'll be snatched up right away. Ugg...

 

[DoubleG]

Dropped Roddy to pickup Hankerson (10 team dyno with tight rosters). Figured I basically replaced White with a slightly younger version of himself - a decent WR3 with WR2 upside. Hankerson aint going to light anybody's world on fire, but at 7 targets a game that's about 7 more/game than Roddy was seeing.

 

[Raiderfan32904]

I dumped Joique Bell last night from my dynasty roster. Feel pretty good about it. He might have some late season value to a contender as a bye week filler, but I need to load up on lottery tickets as my team is in full rebuild.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Is it Time to Give up on [insert Underperforming Fantasy Player Here]?

That's a no-brainer...imo.

 

[oldnumber7]

Thinking of trading Calvin Johnson for Brandon Marshall at this point. Lions have an easy schedule later on but these guys look like they dont have any fire.

 

[fantasycurse42]

Can't get anything for Lamar Miller. Offered him for Gostkowski and got turned down.

I know a lot of Waldmans picks busted.

 

[BearsFan4Life]

Owner in our league wanted Kelce or Olsen from me for Miller .. dynasty and still no chance I do it.

2 kicker league?

 

[davearm]

Can't get anything for Lamar Miller. Offered him for Gostkowski and got turned down.

The Lynch owner in my league also has Miller. I was considering offering Rawls for Miller, but then it dawned on me, i don't want Miller on my roster. I'd rather have a lottery ticket that has the chance to cash into a surefire every week starter. At this stage it's hard to think Miller will become that. He's already the starter for the Dolphins, and utterly unstartable for fantasy.

 

[Ketamine Dreams]

I want to give up on watkins

But maybe his narrative changes after the coaching change and bye week. I recently traded Abdullah for Miller. I would trade Rawls for him in a heartbeat, not that that is necessarily even an option for you.

Boom

 

[Catbird]

You should. You have been agonizing over Sammy and his situation all year. If you don't like him, get someone you like for him. Most of us who believe in his talent are fine to hold him into next year, at the very least. If the injury thing isn't a character trait, and when TT has some experience and if they put some draft energy into that OL ... the whole offense has good long term potential. They don't have to be Green Bay for a very talented guy to be a top 15 WR.
