Bye-Week Help: Drop or Keep?

[Otsego Mar]

Ok I'll start it off.....I need some help.

I need to pick up a QB since Matt Ryan is on a bye....and I love Shaun Hill vs. STL. But I'm not certain who to drop.

Nate Burleson (bench)
Mike Sims-Walker (starting)

Jonathon Stewart (bench)
Glen Coffee (starting)

My other receivers are Ochocinco (starting), Manningham (starting), & Fitz (bye)

My other RBs are Kevin Smith (bench), Ahmad Bradshaw (bench), & C. Johnson (starting)

Do I drop J-Stew since he's having a sub-par year? The problem with this is that both Kevin Smith and C. Johnson have week 7 bye's, so I'd have Bradshaw and Coffee to fill in, but Coffee's time may be over by then, so I'd have to go waiver wire for a RB.

Or, do I release 1 of Burleson and Sims-Walker....since I just picked both of them up?

I'm in 1st place so this is vital....help me out RCF!

Hahahaha. :chuckles:

At first I was inclined to say drop J-Stew, since he really isn't doing much (or Carolina's offense in general for that matter). But after looking at a few things, I would drop Coffee.

Gore is expected to be full go by Week 6 vs. Houston

No surprise here as Gore is expected to return in two weeks against the Texans following San Francisco's bye in Week 6.

- Coffee really isn't living up to the pre-season hype, and San-Fran doesn't seem to trust him, they are throwing alot more since Gore went out.
- San Fran is likely to be fighting for the NFC West division the whole year, meaning Coffee probably won't get end of the year carries as the starters rest. Stewart has a decent chance to get some of those if the Panters are way out of the race and want to shut Deangelo down.
- Coffee is also banged up

No surprise here as Gore is expected to return in two weeks against the Texans following San Francisco's bye in Week 6.

Hang on to those recievers. Even though you have strong starters, you could trade them for other needs. Both Sims Walker and Burleson will probably go up in value since their teams suck and they will throw alot. You can get more in a packaged trade with them than Coffee or Stewart

Edit: Or you could try and sucker someone into trading for Coffee even though Gore is coming back, package him with Burelson maybe? I'm just thinking out loud.

Coffee... He is useless in fantasy now that Gore is back.
