Tyler Eifert Situation (1 Viewer)

[briggssteel]

This is a 10 team, standard 2 QB league. I'm not sure what to do with Eifert at this point. He's not listed as out so I can't do anything until I move him off of IR. I have no cour who to drop for him. Also, week 9 I've got Eifert, David Johnson, Palmer, my kicker, Langford and Houston's D out for bye, which will be a disaster. Is Eifert worth all the trouble at this point and if so who would you drop to keep him?

My roster is:

Cam Newton
Carson Palmer
David Johnson
Matt Forte
Spencer Ware
Mike Evans
Stefan Diggs
Dwayne Allen
Texans
Catanzaro

BENCH:

Derek Carr
Randall Cobb
Allen Hurns
Jeremy Langford
Theo Riddick
Chris Ivory
Tyrell Williams
Tyler Eifert

Also should I drop D Allen for Pitta?

Eifert is inactive today, so I wouldn't make any moves today - if any one of your guys gets hurt today you can move him into the IR spot.  There's a good chance Eifert is active next week, but I would expect it to take a couple weeks at least before he is back in football shape.  In PPR I'd prefer Pitta to Dwayne Allen but in Standard I'd lean Allen - better chance for TD (unless the Colts use him as the blocking TE while Doyle is the receiving TE, in which case forget about Allen).

In these situations try to swing a 2 for 1 or even 3 for 1 trade to take guys off your bench rather than just cutting one of them.

Trading isn't a bad idea to clear some space
