How important is playoff seeding to you? Might have to take the L this week if you can spare it. Plus, losing when you can afford to is a tactic for better waiver wire positioning I've used before so there could be victory in defeat.

Well I'm tied for first at 6-2. I beat the other 6-2 guy but the guy in 3rd at 5-3 just beat me this week. Luckily (I guess) my opponent this week also has literally no starting RB's on his roster but way more FAAB than me. So I'm expecting him to get like West and Hightower.

I was able to field a starting lineup at least. Still projected to beat my opponent by 1 104-103

I am not sure why you still have him rostered. JC is probably done in terms of ever being a fantasy option.

No 7. I moved all bye players out of my lineup

We only have 4 bench spots so I'd almost rather have all my players on bye one week than have to shuffle around through several weeks

last week it was bell so i had to find replacements on the waiver wire

this week its gronk

next week its carr

I'd prefer your situation where im likely to lose one week because all my guys are on bye than have studs out 4 weeks in a row

We cut ours down to 6. Makes a huge difference. 10 more players available on waivers every week. That's why I hate when people say "I got so and so off waivers" and everyone says "your league sucks". Not necessarily. They may just have less bench spots.

I don't know how to read. I was a child left behind.
