8rattoon Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I went RB and QB heavy in a 12-team Superflex league and stupidly ended up with Arob as my WR2. With his embarrassing 2021 and completely rotten start to this season, I'm not going to make the same mistake as last year and wait for production. He looks like complete toast out there. Couldn't create an inch of separation out there, not to mention the fact that Stafford only looks to Kupp. How many more weeks do I start him before dropping him for the one of the inevitable flier WRs on the ww? Give him one more game against ATL and hope for a trade-inducing blowup week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdybaz Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 A podcast I listen to said this exact same thing happened last year with Robert Woods.... poor week 1, and then the Rams vowed to get him the ball more often. And that week 1 was the worst week he had all year 'til he tore his ACL. So, I would keep an eye on A-Rob this week for a rebound and commitment from the coaching staff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irvin088 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 If he’s your WR2, probably can’t afford to drop him. Personally I’m benching him next week since he’s my WR3, but it was his first game in new system and Stafford was under pressure all game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoyo Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Trying to avoid kneejerk reaction myself. Obj had 3 targets and 18 yards in his first game with the Rams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana is da Man Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Arob is more explosive against man to man defenses and Buffalo played zone all day. He will get better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, eventually maybe you can replace him with better players, but unless you bench is super short there's got to be some progression from starter to bench player to bottom of the bench and ready to be cut.

Agreed, but I played that pro(re)gression game with him last season and got burnt as a result. Honestly, now I'm more concerned with Devante Parker (even though he was covered by Howard all day). I don't see as much potential for him this year as NE's offense looks like an unmitigated disaster.

Come on, 8rattoon, you've been around these boards long enough to not succumb to rash moves after week 1. Your gamble with the waiver wire at the expense of ARob could make you look like a genius...or a fool. Stand pat and give it another week.
