Keep Allen Robinson?

Recommended Posts

My Auction League starts 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 2FLEX (RB/WR/TE)...This league also tends to overspend...I've had ARob for a couple years and, like most people, am not confident in the situation is JAX...I can keep him for $11. I can't say for sure, but I'm sure the top 3-4 WRs will be kept. I DEFINTELY do not want ARob to be my #1, so my question is:

 

Do I keep ARob because the Top Tier WRs will probably be gone so the additional money (I would assume he would go for $20+ in the open market) I will have won't be able to go towards an elite WR...?

 

I don't HAVE to keep anyone and keeping a player does not cost me any picks. Is he worth keeping for a lower price and trying to pair with a Michael Thomas/Jordy Nelson (maybe)/TY Hilton? As an aside, I don't really have any other better options to keep when I compare cost....Thanks for the help.

If you are keeping him or nobody then I think the question is quite simple: will he start for your team?

 

If not, why keep him?

First things first, it depends on your overall budget and the rules. If this is a PPR league, you almost certainly want receivers in those flex spots.

 

I have a lot of shares of Robinson in keeper and dynasty leagues and feel the same. I'm holding him but treating him as a top-25 receiver, not my number 1. Having him for cheap would certainly let you splurge on someone like Jordy.

Yes, he probably would start for my team...especially considering with the FLEX spots we can start up to 4 WRs...It is a PPR League with a $225 budget (We start 2 IDP positions as well). I've seen values all over the place, from $15-$28 for him...and going from the 4th-6th Rd...So I suppose if I ask myself if I would pay $11 for a WR2-WR3 in those rounds, then I probably would...and I guess have my answer.

Drop him and bring him up first when it is your turn to throw a name out. If the league tends to overspend, let them bid him up to $15-18 and deal with the sh!t QB situation in JAX.
