I'm perusing the waiver wire and sankey is available. Should I drop Rainey for him? This is my RB5. My other backs are LeVeon Bell, Murray, McCoy and J. Hill

Why would you keep Rainey?

Lovie loves him and he's getting a lot of touches. Although he may have fumbled away his chance.

Rainey will still get a few touches. He really gives it his all out there on every play, even down 56-0.

I like him but make no mistake Martin will be the lead back in that offense.

With that said, I actually am trying to trade him hoping people won't realize his production will dip with Martins return.

Who are your WRs? Surely you could trade him for something decent or package him in a 2for.

It's a 10 team but I'm stacked right now, especially if Gordon rounds into form for the playoffs.

luck
bell, murray, mccoy, hill, rainey
jordy, emmanuel sanders, crabtree, colston, gordon
kelce, pitta
carolina

I wanted to upgrade my WR2, but have decided not to since sanders and jordy are getting more targets than I anticipated. Just trying to keep building depth at the bottom of my roster.

You should feel free to drop Pitta if you want to keep Rainey.

I'm going to probably replace Pitta with another TE. I like Kelce but his bye is coming up soon so I need to plan for that.

I disagree. Martin was supposed to suit on vs Falcons and Lovie said they would be using a RBBC approach and use multiple guys at diff times. And the Bucs suck and will be playing from behind most of the time, which works in favor of Rainey. And Lovie really likes Rainey and his skill set, and they wanna keep Martin healthy. It will be a timeshare.

How about trading to upgrade your TE position? I'm sure someone poor sap needs a WR and a RB.
