Just had draft, wondering if I should make any drops for a waiver?

[scooter1891]

14 TEAM, ESPN League, PPR, Keeper League

Return TD pts, but not yardage

We play:

 

QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1RB/WR 1TE, 1K, 1Def, 1LB, 1DL, 1DB

 

Here is my team I just drafted; It is a

 

QB: Kevin Kolb, Big Ben

RB: Adrian Peterson, Ricky Williams, Larry Johnson, BenJarvus Green-Ellis

WR: Roddy White, Greg Jennings, Derrick Mason, Jabar Gaffney, Julian Edeleman

TE: Jermichael Finley, Dustin Keller

K: David Akers

Def: Bears D/ST

Def Players: Karlos Dansby, Trent Cole, Yeremiah Bell

 

Its still so early in the preseason, wondering if it is worth trying to move things around while people aren't paying much attention or wait until the end of preseason before I think about making any moves. A few players I picked hoping by next year they are working it (Edelman, maybe BenJarvis) and worth keeping based on where I picked them up in the draft. But this is a 14 team league with 7 bench spots (I know ridiculous) so players are scarce to say the least

 

Waiver players available that caught my eye;

 

LeGarrette Blount,

Legedu Naanee

Anthony Dixon

James Starks,

Laurent Robinson

Dexter McCluster

Devin Thomas

Kareem Huggins

Ramses Barden

 

Any thoughts would awesome, thanks

I like McCluster the best right now.

 

This kid is going to get the ball probably 10-12 times a game. And he's pretty dynamic to say the least.

All over Nanee if you can get him

I like McCluster....his ceiling is pretty good...he could be a guy that catches fire being used in different situations and becomes an asset to your team, or that you flip for a performer you know is going to continue playing well all season (My guess is even at his best McCluster is going to be a boom or bust kind of guy).

 

I'd have no problem dropping Benjarvus Green Ellis...don't think the fact he started for the Pats in pre-season means anything...rumors in boston abound that it was to take a long look at him in game action to decide whether or not he makes the team, or to raise his trade profile to try to ship him out...very little chance he plays enough in NE this year to warrant a fantasy spot.

 

Edelman on the other hand is likely to be a PPR beast for games 1-4 of this season, and then you are right if you got him late, he's got nice keeper status as the Pats are very high on him over the long term.

 

Best of Luck,
