Hey guys, 10 team PPR and half my team is suspended, injured or on hold!
My Rb's are: Mixon (inj.) , Bell (hold out), Ingram (suspended), L miller, J conner and dion Lewis.
My Wr's are: M.Thomas, K. Allen, baldwin, cooper and crowder.
We start 2 RB's 2 wR's and 1 flex weekly.
My question is should i do hit the waivers this week and take Gio or hold my 3rd priority spot? Keep hearing everyone say get Gio wherever you can but in my case is he necessary? feel like mixon will be back soon so wasting my position..? Will he start over L.miller, conner or cooper this week and next until i start possibly getting players back? i was thinking of dropping crowder for him.
Other option would be to save waiver and pick up bortles as FA for my bye week and injury backup (2 qb league) and only have Brees/russel which are on bye week 5 and 6. again crowder would be the drop...
thoughts? get GIo or hold tight... 1-1 with a serious team, getting nervous watching my bench accumulate injuries and no IR spot.
thanks!
Tough call here. I would consider it as then you have the handcuff for Mixon if this injury lingers or he gets hurt again. For all your injuries I don't think you NEED to do it, you still have three pretty good backs you can play until you get healthy. I do feel a little safer about playing Gio now because he should get a big workload I would think. I would probably lean toward doing it but it would be tough to give up Lewis at the same time in a PPR league.
ya having a tough time also lol, hate dumping Lewis for a temporary fix.
quick edit: just realized i already have 6 B which is the max i can hold... would need to drop one of my RBs for GIo. So most probably would be Lewis for Gio.
