Pick up Braelon Allen? (1 Viewer)

12 team 0.5PPR, start 2RB/2WR/Flex, can keep 2 players each year.

Braelon Allen is available and I'm debating if I should drop Rico Dowdle to pick him up.

My team:

QB - Lamar
RB - Kyren, Mason, Robinson Jr, Mostert, Dowdle
WR - Jefferson, St. Brown, Metcalf, Pickens, Brian Thomas
TE - McBride

Thoughts?
 
I would not drop Rico for him. His role keeps growing week to week. Allen might be a better real life back but he is behind one of the best in the game. Last week is the best you will ever see as long as Hall is healthy.

You are right but Dowdle is # 5 on his depth chart and will likely never see the field. For me it comes down to whether or not you think Allen has a higher upside than Dowdle since it's a bench spot you will likely not every use. If you need this roster spot to insert into your lineup as spot starts throughout the year then I keep Dowdle. If it's just an upside play that if it hits you have a top 10 upside RB then I go with Allen.

Agree, figuring it was a playtime call not a storage call.
