enjoi525 0 Posted September 4, 2007 I have to drop a player on my team to make room for a kicker because as of right now, I don't have one. I have plenty of RBs and can only start 2 each week. I can also start 3 WRs. I'm leaning between Betts and Norwood. Both look to be RBBC and that's why I'm torn. SO, who do I drop??? ---------I'm now beginning to think I'll drop Mark Clayton. Someone else in my league just recently dropped Chris Chamber to pick up a kicker also. There there still is some availability for WRs on the Waiver Wire. So should it be Clayton??? I know he had an ankle injury and just returned to practice a few weeks ago..

Texansfan 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Tough call man. Both Betts and/or Norwood could turn out to be big this year. But out of your roster you have to drop one of those 2. See if you can package 2 of your RBs to get a better RB and thus opening up a roster spot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My team: Bulger Roethlisberger SJax SA Benson Caddy Norwood Betts Marvin Harrison Driver Branch Reggie Brown Mark Clayton Shockey Personally, I would drop Rothelsberger.St louis doesnt have their bye week until week 9. A lot can happen in 9 weeks.Portis might get hurt and then you have a top 10 RB in Betts.Norwood might break out this year and then youll be kicking yourself for dropping him .Its a LOT easier to pick up a QB week 9 then it is to pick up a RB..Drop Rothelsberg.

Coalter 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Nice team, I would drop Big Ben or Clayton if I had too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TAM2020 0 Posted September 5, 2007 It doesn't look like you've got that many teams if you managed to pick SJAX and SA so I'd drop Big Ben. You'll definitely be able to pick up a 1 week filler for the St Louis bye week in a league that size. Besides, Mikeock is correct. All it takes is a groin pull to Portis or a hit to Dunn's back and you've got two very, very good backs. Check out mine please. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284247 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adam smitty 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Do not drop one of those RBs! Drop big ben, if anyone or go kickerless if you have to. Best option is doing a 2 for 1 trade, like someone previously mentioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mathja 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Clayton....or Big Ben if you're allowed to carry 1 QB. Clayton probably won't make a significant contribution to your team. The Ravens will be a run-first grind the clock team. Steve McNair isn't getting younger. If one of those backs should happen to break-out, you'll be fired up that you dropped one. It would be easier to replace Clayton if you had to. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284243 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got SJAX in a trade for Travis Henry and Javon Walker (who were my guys). Then traded LJ and Julius Jones (who id also drafted) for SA, Caddy, and Driver. ----I'm now beginning to think I'll drop Mark Clayton.

Bbleehehh9 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I'm going to differ from everyone else a little bit and say that you should drop Norwood.. I just don't see Atlanta doing much of anything on offense this year, and with Dunn being ready for the start of the season, I dont see Jerious being too much of a fantasy impact this year, plus you have plenty of other depth there please see mine http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284283 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vegemite 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I would say Clayton and if you dont want to drop a wr then Big Ben. Betts and Norwood could be huge, let me correct that betts will be huge once portis goes down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sameolpete 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I would also say drop Clayton or Big B. Like was was mentioned Rams bye week isn't till week 9 and there should be a decent QB out there that can give between 15 and 20 points that week. Stick with your RB's Please see mine http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284288 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kore60 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I would also go with Clayton- it seems like you're stacked at RB- If betts and norwood pan out you'll will have plenty of trade bait http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284368 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leahb34 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I would drop Big Ben and hope for the best with Clayton. Big Ben may be around if you want to pick him up later on. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284369 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parja 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I agree with what appears to be the concensus...Clayton or Big Ben. Betts and/or Norwood could be huge if Portis/Dunn get injured or just lose the job to them outright. If I had that roster, I'd definitely want to hold onto both of them, at least for a while, to see how things pan out. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284347 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael123 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I wouldn't hesitate to drop Ben. You can always find a reasonable QB. Please see mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284376 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VUND 0 Posted September 5, 2007 I would say drop Big Ben as well. If Chambers and possibly Clayton (from you) could end up on the WW I am guessing that there are a few starting QBs on the WW as well. With Bulger you are set a QB except for his bye week. If any of those RB have a big year you are going to want to have them for either your lineup or another trade. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284361 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My team: Bulger Roethlisberger SJax SA Benson Caddy Norwood Betts Marvin Harrison Driver Branch Reggie Brown Mark Clayton Shockey Thanks for the input. I think that you have it right, one of those three need to go. Unfortunately, I dont see a clear cut choice, since they really could all come back to haunt you. Betts may be the most productive, but only if Portis goes down, and thats not a sure bet. Norwood could be a legit sleeper, well not really a sleeper, and net you some points. I have Clayton, but my league is 14 deep, so I need to keep him. ESPN's crew thinks he will break out so I'm not sure here either. If I were you I'd go Norwood, he is the least proven of the two RBs, and Clayton is the best WR in Balt. JMO. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slim Pickins 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Personally,I would drop Rothelsberger.St louis doesnt have their bye week until week 9. A lot can happen in 9 weeks.Portis might get hurt and then you have a top 10 RB in Betts.Norwood might break out this year and then youll be kicking yourself for dropping him .Its a LOT easier to pick up a QB week 9 then it is to pick up a RB..Drop Rothelsberg. Thanks Acreed. RBs are a premium and you managed to snag the mother load. You REALLY need to package a couple to upgrade or get someone to throw in a kicker. But with the games starting tomorrow, you may be too late. So I'd drop Clayton since he's the least prospective and there are many on your ww you can get to replace him at any time. Let me know what you do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
