PPR - Who to drop for a Kicker - WHIR (1 Viewer)

[themeistersinger]

So I've been busy on the WW and now need to drop somebody for a kicker, probably an RB. I'll also be looking to generate a 2-for-1 trade but that usually doesn't work in my league.
Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 Flex, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DST
PPR, my current roster:

QB - Patrick Mahomes - home vs. Cincinnati this week
RB - Alvin Kamara - at Baltimore
RB - Alex Collins - home vs. New Orleans
RB - Austin Ekeler - home vs. Tennessee (but in London)
RB - Marlon Mack - home vs. Buffalo
RB - Latavius Murray - at NY Jets
RB - Nick Chubb - home vs. Houston
RB - Leonard Fournette (in my IR spot)
WR - Stefon Diggs - at NY Jets
WR - Kenny Golladay - at Miami
WR - Corey Davis - at LA Chargers
WR - JuJu Smith-Schuster - BYE
WR - Keke Coutee - at Jacosonville
TE - George Kittle - home vs. LA Rams
DST - Bears - home vs. New England
K - vacant

Leave a link and thanks!

Drop Murray, he's a fill in player that will have barely any snaps when Cook plays. Now that you have Chubb as the #1 RB in Cleveland you don't need Murray.

I agree with chapie... drop Murray.. although you really don't need Ekeler either... he'll never start for you.

I may actually drop Corey Davis.  He is WR5 for you (I would have Coutee over him at this point).  You can only play 3 WR's at most so I would rather keep the RB's because they are harder to find on the waiver wire.  I would be tempted to play without a kicker depending on your scoring system and keep everyone.

I don't understand any of this drop Murray stuff. I'd start Murray this week if I were you.

I'd drop either Coutee or Ekeler.

I'm currently 4-2, in a 3-way tie for first, but both my losses are against the other two teams, so I don't have the tie breaker.  My opponent this week is in the other division and 6-0 and currently favored, so I do need to scratch out as many points as possible.  Hence I need to pick up a kicker.

Obviously have been disappointed in Corey Davis, and he does have a Bye next week so he's less likely to get picked up.  But if Mariota even turns into an average QB then I think he will have value.

Yeah I am thinking of starting Latavius Murray and Kamara as my 2 RB's, and maybe Chubb in the flex.  I'm also trying to think of a good trade to the Dalvin Cook owner.

I'm pretty enamored with Ekeler, and if Melvin Gordon gets hurt he could be a league winner.  He's also the top graded RB over at PFF, for what that is worth.
