Bateman for me as well. Bryce Young, not that I need him (
), but though he's terrible so far, there's no way I'd drop him this season. Other than that, my dynasty RB stashes, but those were kind of expected to be cloggers for now.
This is a better list of roster cloggers as all still have some perceived value. If you're not one of the believers, you want to find out who in your league still has hope, ship them for a pick and re-roll.
Of the top list, I'd hold Dotson just because I expect the Commanders to look different next year as the regime change continues. He's got elite separation skills and showed well as a rookie. For some reason the present "genius" OC likes to target RBs and 5th string WRs as primary reads on way too many plays. I doubt that is the case next season.
I'm keeping most of them, that's they are roster cloggers for dynasty.
Dynasty roster cloggers mean guys taking spots and you don’t see much of a future for them, not that they aren’t much use today.
I thought the 3rd year WR breakout thing died like a decade ago? Not saying it's not possible, but it seems like 2nd year is more the norm now.
30 deep rosters.
bateman, former first rounder. a team change could evevate him to playable.
mooney - 9 target last week.
gainwell - handcuff for swift
johnson - had a td last week
pierce - 3rd year breakout next year.
Using the listed players, Bateman is finishing his 3rd season without breaking out, Mooney is finishing his 4th without breaking out.
I'll give three years if there are circumstances. An injury, awful QB.
Samuel almost definitely out of town with Ron Rivera.
I think Gainwell is definitely a roster clogger in dynasty. Too early to label Bigsby as such.
The bolded is the key word. There is no hard rule. Each situation needs to be weighted based on their own circumstances in the context of your league's parameters. I don't always acquire post hype breakouts cheaply, but those are the types I seek out since they don't require much investment. Doing so results in a lot of roster cloggers (it's a volume approach) I later need to flush out but it also nets assets like Nico, Mostert, Njoku, Purdy (SF), etc. This was taken to an extreme, but there was a point last season I had 14 QB's (deep league + IDP) on my roster
I wouldn't be surprised if they draft either Treyveon Henderson, Trey Benson, or Ray Davis in April.
That would be very kinky.
You got me on that one. Went right over my head.
What are you expecting for a breakout here? He went over 1,000 in his second season. Which is probably his ceiling. Decent enough, couldn’t even catch the Hail Mary. As a 5th round pick (without reasons for him to drop beyond usual) nobody seems to have expected much more.
I think the ship has sailed for Mooney - he is what he is. Last year, he inherited the #1 WR role and failed miserably. Poor QB play was a factor, but he’s unlikely to be more than a 2nd/3rd WR for an NFL team and much less than that fantasy wise.
I probably can't name 5 MLB owners, but I do love my one and only dynasty baseball league.
I hope you are in my league. I would love a low ball offer to move on from Bateman. I have been trying to include him in every deal I am offering and nobody wants any part of him. He is like an anti-sweetener.
