Is it time to cut bait with Greg Olsen?

I started a thread here last week asking if it was time and not one person said yes to sitting him. Wonder if that'll change now.

Since their bye week (6 weeks), he has broken 50 yards ONCE and has only one TD (both came in the same game against the Rams).

The Panthers oline is pretty bad and Cam isn't playing well at all.

Really worried about this dude going into the playoffs. But the TE position is just si fricked up that right now there may not be many options you'd feel comfortable rolling out there in the playoffs

Oddly enough his slump has coincided with my win streak.

There aren't any better options realistically...Olsen to the end.

This is my problem. I have Hunter Henry stashed on my bench. Think it's time to roll him out over Olsen?

Nah. Henry has like 5 or 6 targets in the last three games. Olsen had 7, just last night.

Don't let that TD last week fool you.

Ladarius Green played only 35 snaps vs NYG, but he was targeted on 11. Antonio Brown is spending more of his snaps as a blocker than Green.



Will save Olsen owners season. He's essentially their Marty Bryant.

prob too late though

I'm going to pickup Green if I can, just in case. Olsen is killing me.

Just saw this. I have 4th priority and hoping to get him.

Olsen is killing me as well.

there's some guys out there on the waiver wire, but am I really going to start Hunter Henry, or Vance McDonald, or Ladarius Green over Olsen, who is still the #1 TE in fantasy despite the last 5 shitty games?
