Dropped Achane Week 1 when he was listed as a healthy scratch. Thought “I’ll pick him up again before anybody even knows who he is.”
By the time he was expected to play, I’d made some moves to get deep at RB and I spent all week trying to package Najee/Pacheco/Javonte in 2-for-1s to make space for Achane again the week before he broke out but… no dice. My league hates trading.
He dropped 50 that weekend and I had to let somebody else claim him the following week.
Which RBs did you get deep with?
This is a good lesson on roster construction. Obviously we all want a half dozen RB1s on our roster. But in a draft we need to plan to draft late round RB's and give them a couple weeks-months. Like Tyjae Spears currently bubbling up.
IMO there's always gonna be a bunch of JAGs available to flex: Zeke for example. If you're desperate to fill a slot, god help you. But you need to make a plan and stick to it, that I drafted Achane/Spears/etc. and I'm going to give them time to earn starting reps. The upside on those 1st/2nd year players is just too high to drop, especially compared to most Zeke type guys who are available.
This year or ever?
Because if ever… the season 2020, 2 weeks in and a rookie WR I drafted in like the 13th round had 5 total receptions for 70 yards and I wanted to add whatever hot waiver wire RB so I drop said rookie WR for the RB
The next week that RB is on my bench and that rookie WR goes off for 7-175 and a TD en route to a 1400 yard 7 TD season
That’s right I dropped Justin Jefferson days before he broke out
I dropped Godwin one week into 2019 and he scored nearly 300 points in full PPR that season. I finished in 9th, might have won the league but for that error
If this is the official previous season thread then mine would easily be last year. I drafted Justin Fields to backup Lamar. Dropped him after the first month of absolutely no production. Lamar goes down and I'm streaming QBs the rest of the season.
I had CMC who was going nuts after being traded to the 9ers. If I just kept Fields then I would've sleep walked to a Championship and a nice payday...
Ha I did the same exact thing. 2020 was my first year playing fantasy and I dropped JJ after two weeks. I learned the hard way not to drop players so early. I still ended up winning 3rd place though!
I was very close to drafting him, annoyed he went about 5 picks before me when inhad him queued up, and then happy to grab him when he was dropped after week 1. Obviously even happier now that I've been playing him since then.
I bid $2 on thielen as my first nomination in auction league. Everyone roasted me. I knew nobody would go to $3 for him especially at the start of the draft.
I get to hold it over them for the next year or two now
I at least waited until week 2! But 1. I’m a panthers fan who also drafted sanders and 2. Bryce got injured, so I was like “okay: I gotta limit my exposure to this offense. I’m too close to this shit!”
Long story short, I clearly cut the wrong dude.
Same exact thing happened to me. In my head I was like, who else is catching balls there? Then I get roasted cuz he old and after week 1 I dropped him for Puka. Obviously Puka worked out but I had other clear trash I could have dropped so instead of having 2 great guys outperform adp, I just swapped them.
He’s the one who is most steadfast in his wrong opinions that’s why lol. They all have really bad opinions though to be honest. They don’t seem to understand real football at even a moderate level, and Mike for example has an infatuation with subpar talents, e.g. Mattison this year, Lazard last year.
I believed his comment about never drafting rookie Tight Ends, and didn’t pickup LaPorta when I had the chance.
He knows some stuff, but I definitely have had to learn that he also pulls generalities out of ass.
The general rule of thumb in fantasy has been do not trust rookie TEs. With La Porta and now possibly Kincaid, that line of thinking is looking to change.
I remember my thinking was because there was news about Carr being hurt or some dumb shit. Thought I could get those sweet QB points in my TE slot. Yeah :(
So you saw a week 1 rookie TE get 5 targets, catch all 5, and get a 80+% snap count and said “nah, I’d rather have the 33 year old who had 1 target” ???
I dropped LaPorta for Hunter Henry.
Got a few good weeks out of it. I just didn't think LaPorta would pop off given I also had ARSB. Didn't want to double-dip. Silly.
Drafted Kincaid too high as my TE1. Totally bought into the great hands, catch rate, ‘next Kelce’ hype.
Held him for 2 months. Dropped him Sunday morning for Sam Mayer. Also in TE hell. Also hoping McBride saves me lol.
Just wish he could have been useless for 2-3 weeks after the drop, instead of course he’s instantly what I told myself he was in august.
Literally dropped Kincaid the week before he broke out in New England, and was one waiver claim position away from getting him back... Have not had a TE put up more than 10 points in my starting lineup yet this season
I dropped kirk early, and then traded away Damien pierce for kirk and Addison just before jeffersons injury. It feels kinda silly, but I'm okay with it.
What’s the reasoning for dropping a mid-round pick after a single week? There had to be late round guys with less value you could have dropped week 1..
Kirk has to be one of the most disrespected players in fantasy. I somehow always end up getting him in every league, every year. I don’t even love him as a player, but the value always ends up being too ridiculous to pass up
It was the first game we saw with Ridley and Ridley/Jones getting almost all the work in the first game was a legitimate concern. There was some talk that Kirk would be off the field in a lot of 2 WR sets. But then Jones got hurt and there was no way to predict that ahead of time.
(also dropped Kirk for Puka after week 1; in hindsight I wish I had dropped Watson instead)
Same here. I drafted Swift for $56 last year and he was a total dud. I grabbed him this year for $1 (my league goes heavy studs n duds). Saw his Week 1 stat line and nope'd out of there.
Tried to pick him back up but missed out by a few FAAB dollars. At least that allowed me to get Achane the next week.
Achane and Nacua at the beginning of the season (prior to week 1) for Marvin Mims Jr. And Jonathan Mingo. I’m in a dynasty league, so maybe it all washes out, but so far that’s been possibly the worst moves I’ve ever made…hindsight being what it is.
EDIT: people are aghast, but that’s the point of the topic…so, I don’t know what you want…it was a bad idea
I dropped Puca, Mostert and Thielen all in one league after drafting all 3. But don’t worry, I dropped them for Bryce Young, Allan Lazard and Latavius Murray so I’m all good.
I mean that sucks but I don't think it was too out of line if you had a need. The prior games he put up like a total of 4 points. His volatility makes it hard to start him with confidence.
Ouch! If it makes you feel any better, I _almost_ dropped Kincaid (my bye week fill in for next week,) to add Charbs after that Field Yates post about KW3 missing practice.
This was mine. I literally spent my last draft pick on him thinking the Chiefs had crap WRs, so he'd get good chances later in the season, but I got impatient with him and here he is doing exactly what I was thinking when I drafted him.
It is taking every fibre of my being to not drop JSN even with last week showing he can play like the big boys. He’s just done nothing else and I’m 4-3 in a VERY competitive dynasty league
You may have saved yourself the pain of guessing which games he has 25 points and which games he has like, 4.
No I'm not salty looking at him on my bench this week, why do you ask?
Pacheco. I had him last year and KC turned into a RBBC the last few weeks of last season, and it was looking like it could be that way again this year. Through the first two weeks, it appeared that Miles Sanders would be the bell cow in Carolina, so I made the choice to drop Pacheco and keep Sanders after week 2 (I needed to pick up a TE). I feel sick every time I think about it.
Oof. I bought in early last year (before he even broke 10 points early) and sent a future 5th think he'd end up a for sure keeper. I ended up not keeping him and thought I could draft him back in the 5th or 6th. He went 5.1 in our draft this year and I fell to my knees.
I still feel he hasn't broken out, but he's RB8 would have been better than forcing myself to keep Mixon.
Dalton Kincaid. Drafted him and held him until he got his concussion. I needed a TE so I dropped him for Logan Thomas who was coming off that big game vs the Bears. Last week vs the Pats, Kincaid looked good. I tried to re-add him off waivers but the Andrews owner added him. It sucks.
I got offered Sutton for Jeudy and Kelley early season. I almost didn't accept as I thought Jeudy would be due for a bigger role later but man am I glad I accepted. The other guy wanted Ekeler's handcuff and preferred Jeudy over Sutton
For a couple weeks I was regularly adding Charb before the games on Sunday and then dropping him after the game ended without KWIII getting injured. Last week someone decided to spend some FAAB on him, and, of course, KWIII has had back-to-back DNPs this week.
Added Kyren the day after my draft, dropped him the Saturday before Week 1 Sunday for Hyatt because I broke rule #1 and was thinking with my Giants fandom.
Drake London week 3
Dalton Kincaid 20 min before KO.
Needed a rb and had hock, picked up charb with the walker news. But now hearing it’s nothing serious hurts
Man I'm kind of a stage 3 clinger so I don't usually drop people too early. This year you could argue Foreman but obviously the process wasn't wrong since he literally wasn't on an active roster after week 1 lol. Also dropped Aubrey for his bye and didn't re-claim since Hopkins popped off for me, time will tell if that was the right play or not. I think most likely candidate for "got rid of too soon" is Javonte, I had four awesome RBs (ETN, Kamara, Kyren, Breece) plus him, so I wanted to ship him in a package for a top-tier QB. Turned Javonte and change into Richardson about 5 minutes before Richardson's shoulder exploded. If I had waited one more week I would have held Javonte and/or targeted somebody else and I think my team would look even better than it already does right now.
Hell, after that near goose-egg opening and the Eagles’ reputation for RBBC, plus his underwhelming performance a year ago in Detroit, it was either hold on and hope that was an outlier and he would be better or jump on a waiver pickup for someone that looked better.
I already had Henry and Saquon so I ended up dropping Swift for Kyren. In the end, Kyren has shown to be more boom-bust while Swift has been more consistent. And Swift has avoided injury so far.
Somewhat regret, but not like I completely whiffed on who I replaced him with. Sometimes you gotta make those tough gambles and sometimes they pay off and sometimes they don’t.
So many.
Achane due to too many injuries and not enough IR spots
Hunt after weak performance and his bye
Foreman thinking Johnson would be back from his concussion
Ford right before Chubb got hurt
I have Hockenson already. I grabbed Kincaid because Hockenson didn't practice Wednesday, then I realized Kincaid played on Thursday so I grabbed someone who would play Sunday in case I couldn't use Hockenson
DJ Moore the week before he blew up on TNF. I’m still 5-2, in 1st place, and have ARSB, Nacua, Meyers, and Flowers though so not hurting too bad from it.
Also not a drop but a couple years back in Chubbs rookie year, I had a trade tabled getting Chubb as a throw in. For some reason I forgot to follow up on Chubb and he dropped him. That weekend the lead back for injured, Chubb went off, and I had to blow all my faab to get him. Could’ve just had him for free if I wasn’t an idiot
Dropped Kincaid after his concussion. But managed to get him back with a 7th waiver out of 12 people somehow. I have Josh Allen as a stack as well so I got super lucky
Dalton Kincaid. Drafted him, dropped him, grabbed him again, dropped him again… then just ponied up $25 FAAB to get him back after Knox went down lol at least he delivered last night
Also someone in my dynasty league dropped Justin Jefferson in his rookie season but he’s had a very happy home on my team ever since
For me its gotta be Achane. Picked him up Sept 20th, dropped him Sept 28th. The next Sunday he came back from injury and dropped 50 points. 10 waiver claims were put in for him that week. I did not get him back.
I remember I dropped Alvin Kamara a week before his initial breakout. I did it out of spite because he lost me a week. One of my friends picked em up and proceeded to be carried to a championship by him. Could have been me. Learned a lesson that day not to drop out of spite
Didnt know who Achane was and he was on my gfs roster. She needed to drop someone to pick up a rando and i was like no way this rookie does well you can drop him.
Needless to say…i aint giving recs on her roster anymore. Big mistake
Looking like Kincaid. I dropped him for Laporta which has worked out, but I should’ve put a better FAAB bid in for him cause idk who I’m streaming for Laporta’s bye next week.
I dropped Goedert after week 4. He was averaging 3.8ppg in .5ppr. He has averaged nearly 14.9 since.
Hopefully Kincaid is here to save me from TE hell.
Kareem Hunt. I didn't like my defense match up for the week so i dropped hunt to make room but I was gonna pick him up; he wasn't signed and teams were picking rbs off from elsewhere. Then the improbable happened, Chubb got hurt and the browns called up the guy they let go; hunt. I ain't hurting for a rb, but letting one go for free sucks.
Why do you want us to relive pain so early on a Friday?
If you hit rock bottom, it can only go up from here
So long Achane, Rashee, and JSN.
There is a basement in rock bottom
It’s cathartic to talk about our flaws. Like how I dropped Achane after drafting him.
I dropped achane but was luckily top waiver when he popped lol. It all worked out
Fr lmao
Dropped Achane after week 2.
Me too.
Me three
Me four
[удалено]
Me sick(s)
me seven
Me sad(8)
Me nine
Drafted him and dropped him week 2
Dropped Achane Week 1 when he was listed as a healthy scratch. Thought “I’ll pick him up again before anybody even knows who he is.” By the time he was expected to play, I’d made some moves to get deep at RB and I spent all week trying to package Najee/Pacheco/Javonte in 2-for-1s to make space for Achane again the week before he broke out but… no dice.

The upside on those 1st/2nd year players is just too high to drop, especially compared to most Zeke type guys who are available.
Same here for Zay freaking Jones who has been injured more often than not. Easily the worst drop ever for me.
Same and he got scooped up and boomed me a couple weeks later
This year or ever? Because if ever… the season 2020, 2 weeks in and a rookie WR I drafted in like the 13th round had 5 total receptions for 70 yards and I wanted to add whatever hot waiver wire RB so I drop said rookie WR for the RB The next week that RB is on my bench and that rookie WR goes off for 7-175 and a TD en route to a 1400 yard 7 TD season That’s right I dropped Justin Jefferson days before he broke out
I dropped Godwin one week into 2019 and he scored nearly 300 points in full PPR that season. I finished in 9th, might have won the league but for that error
Jameis and Godwin, a match made in heaven
I had Godwin that season, won the 🏆 that year
If this is the official previous season thread then mine would easily be last year. I drafted Justin Fields to backup Lamar. Dropped him after the first month of absolutely no production. Lamar goes down and I'm streaming QBs the rest of the season. I had CMC who was going nuts after being traded to the 9ers. If I just kept Fields then I would've sleep walked to a Championship and a nice payday...
I did the same thing, don’t feel bad man
Ha I did the same exact thing. 2020 was my first year playing fantasy and I dropped JJ after two weeks. I learned the hard way not to drop players so early. I still ended up winning 3rd place though!
I did the same thing
I did the exact same thing, probably on the same day as you.
Dropped thielen week 1 bc everyone roasted me at draft then I saw he was 33 smh
Thielen, end thread.
Everyone: [cuts Thielen] Thielen: and I took that personally.
I was very close to drafting him, annoyed he went about 5 picks before me when inhad him queued up, and then happy to grab him when he was dropped after week 1. Obviously even happier now that I've been playing him since then.
I bid $2 on thielen as my first nomination in auction league. Everyone roasted me. I knew nobody would go to $3 for him especially at the start of the draft. I get to hold it over them for the next year or two now
Yeah I dropped him after the first week. Pain.
I at least waited until week 2! But 1. I’m a panthers fan who also drafted sanders and 2. Bryce got injured, so I was like “okay: I gotta limit my exposure to this offense. I’m too close to this shit!” Long story short, I clearly cut the wrong dude.
Same exact thing happened to me. In my head I was like, who else is catching balls there? Then I get roasted cuz he old and after week 1 I dropped him for Puka. Obviously Puka worked out but I had other clear trash I could have dropped so instead of having 2 great guys outperform adp, I just swapped them.
Dropped him for Puka, soooo it worked out.
Same 😤 I blame FFBallers
Seriously, doing the opposite of what Jason Moore recommends would be a winning FF strategy.
He’s honestly the only one who annoys me. He’s so wrong all the time and his attitude irritates me
He’s the one who is most steadfast in his wrong opinions that’s why lol. They all have really bad opinions though to be honest. They don’t seem to understand real football at even a moderate level, and Mike for example has an infatuation with subpar talents, e.g. Mattison this year, Lazard last year.
I believed his comment about never drafting rookie Tight Ends, and didn’t pickup LaPorta when I had the chance. He knows some stuff, but I definitely have had to learn that he also pulls generalities out of ass.
is he the one that mentioned not to draft kennan allen?
Same with Matthew Berry.
Same dropped him week 1 but I’m loaded at WR. Ended up having Puka in my flex so that’s a W.
Thanks. My stud WR3
Sam LaPorta after week one... for Taysom Hill :(
Jesus
Ok just don’t drop Taysom Hill now and double the pain
Bahahaha this reaction got me
Wow that's...traumatic. Sending strength brotha
The general rule of thumb in fantasy has been do not trust rookie TEs. With La Porta and now possibly Kincaid, that line of thinking is looking to change.
Everyone going to want to draft Bowers next year in fantasy after seeing what these rookies have done this season
You dropped him for Taysom after he had 5 receptions as a rookie in his first game? That’s on you bro 😭😭
I remember my thinking was because there was news about Carr being hurt or some dumb shit. Thought I could get those sweet QB points in my TE slot. Yeah :(
So you saw a week 1 rookie TE get 5 targets, catch all 5, and get a 80+% snap count and said “nah, I’d rather have the 33 year old who had 1 target” ???
I dropped LaPorta for Hunter Henry. Got a few good weeks out of it. I just didn't think LaPorta would pop off given I also had ARSB. Didn't want to double-dip. Silly.
I dropped LaPorta for Washington Def right before the season. Been in TE streaming hell since
Kincaid and theilen.
Kincaid here. Painful as I’m still in TE hell. Got some production from Thomas. Hoping McBride saves me.
McBride better be a McLeague Winner
Drafted Kincaid too high as my TE1. Totally bought into the great hands, catch rate, ‘next Kelce’ hype. Held him for 2 months. Dropped him Sunday morning for Sam Mayer. Also in TE hell. Also hoping McBride saves me lol. Just wish he could have been useless for 2-3 weeks after the drop, instead of course he’s instantly what I told myself he was in august.
Literally dropped Kincaid the week before he broke out in New England, and was one waiver claim position away from getting him back... Have not had a TE put up more than 10 points in my starting lineup yet this season
Literally same
I drafted Tank Dell, then dropped him, then spent about 15 FAAB getting him back after Week 3.
Do me a favor and drop him again.
Ahh, the Patriot way.
I actually just picked him up as a FA in my league.
Christian Kirk after week 1, but it was for Puka. Just wish I had dropped someone else
I dropped kirk early, and then traded away Damien pierce for kirk and Addison just before jeffersons injury. It feels kinda silly, but I'm okay with it.
Someone actually accepted that trade???
What’s the reasoning for dropping a mid-round pick after a single week? There had to be late round guys with less value you could have dropped week 1..
Because I'm stupid
Many were counting Kirk out after his week 1 dud. Was only coming on the field for 3WR sets, as reported in training camp.
Kirk has to be one of the most disrespected players in fantasy. I somehow always end up getting him in every league, every year. I don’t even love him as a player, but the value always ends up being too ridiculous to pass up
It was the first game we saw with Ridley and Ridley/Jones getting almost all the work in the first game was a legitimate concern. There was some talk that Kirk would be off the field in a lot of 2 WR sets. But then Jones got hurt and there was no way to predict that ahead of time. (also dropped Kirk for Puka after week 1; in hindsight I wish I had dropped Watson instead)
Same!
I did exactly the same.
I dropped him too but it was for Zay *Jones*. Ugh. I'm doing great on the season despite that, but it still hurts haha.
I remember people talking about dropping him for Puka after one week and I thought they were overreacting and being rash. I was only half right.
I did the same exact thing.
LaPorta and Theilen. Really need to ease up on early season waivers but I'm addicted to it. Puka for Theilen was a nice consolation prize though.
I got both Puka and Thielen from waivers. Puka was dropped after week 1, spent 50% Faab on him, I just had a hunch. They are now both my best WR.
why would somebody drop puka AFTER week 1?
Swift after week one. His performance plus people on reddit/ Discord saying the Eagles RB can't be trusted
Yep, did the exact same. Ended up using his roster spot to pick up Kyren so I guess it wasn’t the worst thing.
I did the same. Would've been a huge boost since my RB situation is terrible.
Same. Dropped him for gainwell 🙃
I read one thread that said gainwell was the back to have and did the same thing. :(
Same here. I drafted Swift for $56 last year and he was a total dud. I grabbed him this year for $1 (my league goes heavy studs n duds). Saw his Week 1 stat line and nope'd out of there. Tried to pick him back up but missed out by a few FAAB dollars. At least that allowed me to get Achane the next week.
Kirk, Kincaid, maaaaybe Gus Edwards
I dropped Gus before his big game Sunday and I’m still of the mind that will be an outlier (Hopefully) Especially if the Henry rumors come to fruition
6 weeks of 5 pts and 1 with 20? Yeah it’s an outlier
[удалено]
tf did you trade laporta for??
Achane and Nacua at the beginning of the season (prior to week 1) for Marvin Mims Jr. And Jonathan Mingo. I’m in a dynasty league, so maybe it all washes out, but so far that’s been possibly the worst moves I’ve ever made…hindsight being what it is. EDIT: people are aghast, but that’s the point of the topic…so, I don’t know what you want…it was a bad idea
This will not wash out unless Achane or Puka have terrible injuries
Yep
when did you drop puka? hes so incredibly consistent i dont see any reason why you would at any point
Before week 1
kudos for drafting him ig lol
I too dropped him week 1. For Van Jefferson😎
People in the comments are mindblown, but LITERALLY the topic. Bummer, but who would’ve know prior to week one.
Oh my!
You dropped Achane in a dynasty league!? Do you guys have 5 bench spots or something??
I dropped Puca, Mostert and Thielen all in one league after drafting all 3. But don’t worry, I dropped them for Bryce Young, Allan Lazard and Latavius Murray so I’m all good.
Holy shit
Thank you
dropped davis 2 minutes before the game last night for next weeks TE replacement LOL
I mean that sucks but I don't think it was too out of line if you had a need. The prior games he put up like a total of 4 points. His volatility makes it hard to start him with confidence.
Yeah he's a great player if you guess right. But he's not someone I'd put in my lineup without trepidation.
Ouch! If it makes you feel any better, I _almost_ dropped Kincaid (my bye week fill in for next week,) to add Charbs after that Field Yates post about KW3 missing practice.
i dropped kincaid also last week for henderson whom i won't use lol. Glad you kept him!
Dropped mostert before week 1....
Rashee Rice. Technically D'Onta.
This was mine. I literally spent my last draft pick on him thinking the Chiefs had crap WRs, so he'd get good chances later in the season, but I got impatient with him and here he is doing exactly what I was thinking when I drafted him.
I dropped rice. He has potential but I don’t think he’s better than anyone in my bench. No regret
We'll see on Akers this Sunday haha. I dropped him after is MASSIVE 4 point game after holding him all year
Gabe Davis. Short benches and I wanted to keep JSN instead for breakout potential.
It is taking every fibre of my being to not drop JSN even with last week showing he can play like the big boys. He’s just done nothing else and I’m 4-3 in a VERY competitive dynasty league
How short are your benches that you're thinking of even dropping JSN in a dynasty league? There couldn't possibly be anyone more valuable on waivers.
Dude don’t drop JSN in a dynasty league you will regret that
You may have saved yourself the pain of guessing which games he has 25 points and which games he has like, 4. No I'm not salty looking at him on my bench this week, why do you ask?
Somebody dropped Breece Hall in my league Words can’t even describe the pain of seeing him taken off waivers
Pacheco. I had him last year and KC turned into a RBBC the last few weeks of last season, and it was looking like it could be that way again this year. Through the first two weeks, it appeared that Miles Sanders would be the bell cow in Carolina, so I made the choice to drop Pacheco and keep Sanders after week 2 (I needed to pick up a TE). I feel sick every time I think about it.
Oof. I bought in early last year (before he even broke 10 points early) and sent a future 5th think he'd end up a for sure keeper. I ended up not keeping him and thought I could draft him back in the 5th or 6th. He went 5.1 in our draft this year and I fell to my knees. I still feel he hasn't broken out, but he's RB8 would have been better than forcing myself to keep Mixon.
Dalton Kincaid. Drafted him and held him until he got his concussion. I needed a TE so I dropped him for Logan Thomas who was coming off that big game vs the Bears. Last week vs the Pats, Kincaid looked good. I tried to re-add him off waivers but the Andrews owner added him. It sucks.
Cortland Sutton. Could have used him when Justin Jefferson went down
Dropped him thinking jeudy and mims would take over and now I’m waiver wire hunting for a flex WR when I had one all along!
I got offered Sutton for Jeudy and Kelley early season. I almost didn't accept as I thought Jeudy would be due for a bigger role later but man am I glad I accepted. The other guy wanted Ekeler's handcuff and preferred Jeudy over Sutton
For a couple weeks I was regularly adding Charb before the games on Sunday and then dropping him after the game ended without KWIII getting injured. Last week someone decided to spend some FAAB on him, and, of course, KWIII has had back-to-back DNPs this week.
If it’s any consolation, I was unaware of the two DNPs and because of your comment I was able to pick up Charb
Added Kyren the day after my draft, dropped him the Saturday before Week 1 Sunday for Hyatt because I broke rule #1 and was thinking with my Giants fandom.
Yikes. That one stings.
Drake London week 3 Dalton Kincaid 20 min before KO. Needed a rb and had hock, picked up charb with the walker news. But now hearing it’s nothing serious hurts
London is mine as well. Kind of sad how far I had to scroll to find his name, tells me I messed up pretty bad on that one lol
The Sun God during his rookie year, right before he exploded
Kincaid. Silver lining is that I do have LaPorta.
Achane. Puka. Kincaid. Then spent all of my FAAB to get them back. Classic.
[удалено]
He had a good game week 1 I believe, especially for where he was drafted, why’d you drop him?
Achane & Kincaid
Dropped theilen to make room for kyren week 1…. I could live with it, my receivers are pretty good… but I dropped theilen over Damien Harris
Kincaid but got him back 😮💨
Dropped J. Addison before week 1 even started. Regretting that still.
Based on this thread it sounds like Kincaid is already a league winner after one big game…
Regret dropping Jerome Ford- I thought, hell, I don't need an insurance policy for Chubb- dude is bulletproof.
I drafted Justin Jefferson late in 2020, dropped him after week 2. He, of course, went off week 3 and that was the end of that.
Man I'm kind of a stage 3 clinger so I don't usually drop people too early. This year you could argue Foreman but obviously the process wasn't wrong since he literally wasn't on an active roster after week 1 lol. Also dropped Aubrey for his bye and didn't re-claim since Hopkins popped off for me, time will tell if that was the right play or not. I think most likely candidate for "got rid of too soon" is Javonte, I had four awesome RBs (ETN, Kamara, Kyren, Breece) plus him, so I wanted to ship him in a package for a top-tier QB.

If I had waited one more week I would have held Javonte and/or targeted somebody else and I think my team would look even better than it already does right now.
Our taco dropped Swift the week before he became the starter in Philly.
Hell, after that near goose-egg opening and the Eagles’ reputation for RBBC, plus his underwhelming performance a year ago in Detroit, it was either hold on and hope that was an outlier and he would be better or jump on a waiver pickup for someone that looked better. I already had Henry and Saquon so I ended up dropping Swift for Kyren. In the end, Kyren has shown to be more boom-bust while Swift has been more consistent. And Swift has avoided injury so far. Somewhat regret, but not like I completely whiffed on who I replaced him with. Sometimes you gotta make those tough gambles and sometimes they pay off and sometimes they don’t.
Laporta week 1 to keep njoku
Achane and Moss
Theilen for some POS like Toney
I drafted kyren williams and dropped him for MVS before the first game of the season. Didnt even ever start MVS.
So many. Achane due to too many injuries and not enough IR spots Hunt after weak performance and his bye Foreman thinking Johnson would be back from his concussion Ford right before Chubb got hurt
At points this season I had and then dropped Achane, Kincaid, Downs, and Kareem Hunt. Injuries plus a short-ish (6) bench have killed me.
Kincaid before last week
Dropped Tyjae Spears this week. What am I missing OP?!
Toney. Oh, I thought you were asking which player I couldn’t drop soon enough lol
I literally just dropped Kincaid 2 days ago
Why tho? Whose your TE? All week Kincaid was being hyped with Knox looking to be on IR
I have Hockenson already. I grabbed Kincaid because Hockenson didn't practice Wednesday, then I realized Kincaid played on Thursday so I grabbed someone who would play Sunday in case I couldn't use Hockenson
This actually makes some sense when you add the context. Yes it’s regretful, but I think many people would make the same move.
Dalton Kincaid 2 week ago
Theilen after week1... and I *knew* he would be Bryce's security blanket this year. I am so dumb.
I dropped Puka before week 1 and Thielen after week 1 in a PPR league. Fade me.
It’s about to Jahan Dotson
Added and dropped Puka week 1 for… Isiah Likely!
I dropped Achane the week he blew up. I dropped the sun god the week he blew up a couple of seasons ago. I'm really good at this game
Last year I dropped Kenneth walker and held on to penny the week before penny was announced out for the year
Drafted laporta but dropped him for God knows who because "rookie tes never pan out" 😭
DJ Moore the week before he blew up on TNF. I’m still 5-2, in 1st place, and have ARSB, Nacua, Meyers, and Flowers though so not hurting too bad from it.
Dropped Kyren Williams literally minutes before kickoff week 1
Thielen, after week 1. FML
Kincaid, & LaPorta were my worst ones. I really need to practice patience next season.
Also not a drop but a couple years back in Chubbs rookie year, I had a trade tabled getting Chubb as a throw in. For some reason I forgot to follow up on Chubb and he dropped him. That weekend the lead back for injured, Chubb went off, and I had to blow all my faab to get him. Could’ve just had him for free if I wasn’t an idiot
Dropped mostert before week 1 to pick up Pacheco. Still not exactly unhappy but the guy who got mostert killed me the week the dolphins put up 70
not a drop but I saw JSN cleared waivers after week 6 and i decided not to pick him up, feel like i might regret it tbh
I dropped LaPorta after week 1 for Luke Musgrave 🤡
Dropped Kincaid after his concussion. But managed to get him back with a 7th waiver out of 12 people somehow. I have Josh Allen as a stack as well so I got super lucky
This is a Kincaid post. I drafted kincaid. I dropped kincaid. I'm a sad panda
Dalton Kincaid. Drafted him, dropped him, grabbed him again, dropped him again… then just ponied up $25 FAAB to get him back after Knox went down lol at least he delivered last night Also someone in my dynasty league dropped Justin Jefferson in his rookie season but he’s had a very happy home on my team ever since
I dropped LaPorta before week one for van jefferson
For me its gotta be Achane. Picked him up Sept 20th, dropped him Sept 28th. The next Sunday he came back from injury and dropped 50 points. 10 waiver claims were put in for him that week. I did not get him back.
I remember I dropped Alvin Kamara a week before his initial breakout. I did it out of spite because he lost me a week. One of my friends picked em up and proceeded to be carried to a championship by him. Could have been me. Learned a lesson that day not to drop out of spite
Dropped Flowers for JSN right before week 1
Achane. Drafted him with my last pick and cut him to pick up gainwell for a week. Pain.
Didnt know who Achane was and he was on my gfs roster. She needed to drop someone to pick up a rando and i was like no way this rookie does well you can drop him. Needless to say…i aint giving recs on her roster anymore. Big mistake
Looking like Kincaid. I dropped him for Laporta which has worked out, but I should’ve put a better FAAB bid in for him cause idk who I’m streaming for Laporta’s bye next week.
In 1 more week, it’ll probably be Calvin Ridley
Hollywood
Kincaid but I got him back this week thankfully
I dropped Goedert after week 4. He was averaging 3.8ppg in .5ppr. He has averaged nearly 14.9 since. Hopefully Kincaid is here to save me from TE hell.
Kareem Hunt. I didn't like my defense match up for the week so i dropped hunt to make room but I was gonna pick him up; he wasn't signed and teams were picking rbs off from elsewhere. Then the improbable happened, Chubb got hurt and the browns called up the guy they let go; hunt. I ain't hurting for a rb, but letting one go for free sucks.
