ROS strategy for struggling teams discussion

Ok so in my main league I'm staring at 2-4. Too early to give up, but time to do some soul searching. My league is not super trade friendly, but we'll keep the discussion general.
What kind of strategies do you guys use in this situation? I'm leaning toward going high risk and making some dart throw starts with waiver guys and hope for big games based on situation. Or do you continue to roll with your guys and hope for better? What parts of your team do you focus on? If you have 2 RB and 2 WR slots do you go with one safe and one risk at each position? Seems like it's do or die from here on out and I'm stuck. Im sure I'm not the only one. Discuss...

I'm also about to be 2-4. Injuries have plagued me (Beckham, Cook, Luck, Powell and now Fournette). Hopefully, Luck is about to come back and I can try and get another RB/WR via trade, as I have Brady and Wentz. Hope to also grab a few long shot pickups (Alex Collins) and hope they continue to develop quickly.

Starting 2-4 as well, but I started 0-4. Last 2 wins were complete arse kickings of Top 4 teams in the league.
My only 2 championship seasons I went 2-4 to start (L, L, W, L, L, W) and was 3-6 going into week 10. Won 4 straight each time, and 3 in the Playoffs to win the title.
In both cases, I made a lot of waiver moves and played matchups. The way I see it, if a guy who is supposed to be a stud just isn't performing, bench him. Hell, if he does good on the bench, oh well. Put him back in the next week. He wasn't doing anything while in.
The league I'm in this year only puts the Top 4 in the playoffs. So I'm being super aggressive now. I'm already 11th in the league. Only one spot worse than that, so why the hell not?

3-3, I usually go through my roster and drop anyone that hasn't worked out as planned, and try to pick up players that can be strong bye week fillers or solid later season starters
