Chris1982 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I play in a 2 QB league, 12 teams. I have 4 active QBs on my roster (Schaub, Orton, Cassel, Sanchez). Schaub, Orton and Cassel all have different bye weeks. I am hoping for some of advise on the importance of QBs in a 2 QB league. I want to pick up the handcuff to my stud RB, but do not have the roster space. Do you think it's important to have 4 QBs in a 2 QB league, or is 3 enough? I've been trying to use my 4th QB as trade bait to teams who only have 2 QBs, but no one is biting. Is it safe to drop Sanchez and pick up my stud's handcuff, or should I hold onto the 4 QBs?

Chris1982 Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 In the first sentence I wrote, it says "2 QBs, 12 teams". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AoDay Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Well Schaub is going to be a designated starter so it's between Orton, Sanchez, and Cassel. I would drop one of them, especially since they all have different bye weeks so you only really need 3 QBs. I would pick between Cassel and Sanchez since they are the two sleepers. I'm not a fan of Sanchez so I would go with Cassel but I would definitely drop one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 What handcuff are you trying to pick up. The real decision is whether or not it is even worth it to go for a handcuff. In a 12 team, start 2 QB league, hat is 24 every wek starters with only 8 backup QBs available to teams, and you have 2 of them. That is hugh. I would strongly reccomend not dropping any of those QBs. Once injuries start (and they will start) and owners realize they can't field a full lineup, you are the one that will be getting the calls for trades and holding the leverage. The value of Qbs in a start 2 league can not be understated. Would really need to see the rest of your roster to try find a different player to drop if it is really that important to you to pickup a backup player.

Chris1982 Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 Alright... 12 team, PPR (0.5 points), head-to-head. I want to pick up Dixon to handcuff Gore. QB - Schaub, Orton RB - Gore, Foster WR - Hines Ward, Derrick Mason, Chris Chambers, Jabar Gaffney TE - Antonio Gates, Vernon Davis Flex - Jonathan Stewart Bench - Mark Sanchez, Mohammed Massaquoi, Kevin Walter, Matt Cassel, Jerome Harrison, Legedu Nannee, Laurent Robinson DEF - NY Jets IDP - Patrick Willis, Jon Beason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Drop Nannee or Robinson if you really value Dixon that much. Yes, both have nice upside, but they are your 7th or 8th WRs. Much less valuable and easy to replace than a QB in this league setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only advice I can give you is DON'T DROP ONE OF YOUR QB'S!!! In a 12 team 2 QB league you are lucky to have 1, let alone 2 backups. Find someone else to drop for Dixon.

Delicious_bass Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 FWIW, I echo what Big Country and Capt have said...drop someone else (not one of your QBs) if you feel you really want to add Dixon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
