Last week I had Gronk and Reed both on byes, so I picked up Rivera. He did well and has been hot lately.

I don't want to carry 3 TEs into the playoffs so I'm trying to decide which to drop. Reed or Rivera?

Going to try to pick him up on waivers tonight. Getting fed up with Kelce.

Reed is going to be a lot more consistent IMO.

And don't give up on Kelce. Everybody has bad weeks.

I'm going to hold onto him and see if the Chiefs can figure out how to throw a forward pass. But I'm going to roll with Rivera in the meantime.

Picked up Sanchez and Rivera as bye week fillers. Now I'm having trouble letting them both go

I am keeping Rivera for now as a back-up to Gronk.

You're going out on a limb saying Reed will be more consistent.
Points last 5 weeks:

Reed: 9.2, 5.4, 4, 1.7, bye
Rivera: 0, 1.8, 8.3, 15.8, 12.4

I think he will, too.

You're going to see a lot of two and three point games from here on out with Reed. Very consistent with his numbers.

Snap count, bro

He's in the game at least 10% of the time.

Reed splits snaps with Paul and I just can't trust anyone in WASH.

I dropped Reed to pick up Jordan Matthews this week.

Rolling with Kelce as my only TE. I don't feel I need a backup TE, as I can pick up a 4pt TE in case of emergency.

More like spells Paul

If it was split snaps, then there would be a discussion.

And Kelce is seeing 50% of snaps despite leading TEs in YAC and being 2nd to Gronk in points per play

He's burning owners too bf every week people expect Reid to unleash the dude but it just isn't going to happen

Same here. I'm going to hold Sanchez through the playoffs - I didn't have a backup for Luck before his bye.

I think I'm leaning towards holding onto Rivera. I don't see myself ever playing either one, but I like the potential of Rivera.

I'm casting Rivera back out! Gronk and Gates already rostered.

I don't think Rivera continues with this production.
