Who is worth keeping? (1 Viewer)

In a one point ppr league, which of these players would you give priority to holding on to for future potential.  It can be more than one.  I'm just trying to decide about adding some depth at QB going into the post season as the current number one seed with Russell Wilson as my only QB (aside from Winston) on my roster.

Any of these are keepable at no cost.  Really just asking talent wise, so don't worry about the make up of the rest of my team here.

Jamaal Williams (I'm not releasing him regardless)

Kenyan Drake

Tarik Cohen

Devontae Booker

I have no other keepable running backs, so it will obviously be a need come next year's draft.

 
If your other RB options are not keepable then you are going to have issues.  I would say there is no need to drop any of them.  I wouldn't do it just to add a backup QB.  If Wilson goes down then worry about a QB.  Your season will likely need lots of help at that point so play the matchups if it comes to that. 

 
You didn't specify how many of them you could keep, so I'll rank them in the order I'd want to keep them. 

Drake - clearest path to #1 workload especially now with Williams sidelined, it's just up to him to seize the role and play well
Cohen - opportunity for touches is there, but they are decimated at WR and need Trubisky to develop more as well.  Should take a step forward next year. 
Booker - same as drake, opportunity to take the lead role is there, but worse offense
Williams - probably still going to be stuck behind Jones and Montgomery for touches, but has handcuff value and some stand alone flex value in given weeks

 
I probably would stick with Wilson and Winston. I think Winston will be back soon and you should be in good shape.

 
Much of this is guesswork, but here goes:

1. Booker:  I think he'll get a shot at being the lead back, and Denver may spend big to address the QB situation since the team is still in win-now mode

2. Cohen:  assuming John Fox and his merry band of fraudsters are gone, I think Cohen could return solid weekly PPR value with a new offensive philosophy

3. Drake:  opportunity there to be the lead back, but I feel Miami addresses this position in the draft.  In fairness, Denver could do the same thing with what is projected as a deep running back group.

4. Jamal Williams:  based on the eye test for me, I just don't see anything special there.

Appreciate it if you could take a look at my question:  https://forums.footballguys.com/forum/topic/763137-which-te-to-start-in-week-13/
