Feel safe dropping Doug Martin yet?

Several sources say its very likely he is done for the year, though the team is awaiting a second opinion.

I'd like to make a move today, but do y'all think I should wait? It's not like he was doing well before the injury to begin with. He's been a massive disappointment so far in my regular league.

I would almost certainly say yes, but who are your other RBs?

I'm in the same boat here. He's been disappointing, but so have my other backs (spiller, miller, Jackson). So I'm pretty much forced to wait him out.

Drop him. Everybody else will be afraid to pick him up due to the injury. Stay on top of his status. If you change you're mind he'll be there for the taking and in the meantime you will have a warm body on your bench.

I'm weighing my options too, but I think I'm just going to drop him. I need to make a waiver move and I don't really have anyone else to drop. Best case scenario is maybe he comes back in a month or so, but is he going to all of a sudden have 1st round production when he didn't before the injury? Probably not, so whatever, cutting ties

I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.

I play in a 2 keeper league (1st/2nd rounds), Foster/Martin were my 2 keepers. For next year I'm probably looking at Foster/Reggie as keepers.

I can only roster 6 RBs, mine are Foster(inj/bye), Martin (inj), Cj2ypc (bye), Reggie (starting), Tate (inj/bye), Joique.

I have to either play Joique this week or drop Martin and he's probably a 30% chance to be picked up as a possible keeper for another team.

I will probably just ride out Reggie/Joique this week and hold Martin for now. He's still a possible keeper next year for me. But then again, I probably won't keep him and his likely just wasting bench space. Worst case situation unfolded for me this week.
