I am changing this year’s series with the sponsorship of Manscaped, so this year we will be trimming up our rosters to ensure we are adding value to our teams each week and maximizing each roster spot. Pair this series up with Mike Reedy‘s Untangling the Wire, and you should have success this year for sure!
James Cook (RB – Buffalo Bills)
Rostership Percentages:
Yahoo – 67% Ownership
ESPN – 76% Ownership
Sleeper – 84% Ownership
With only three total snaps in the game, he quickly went into the dog house after fumbling on his only carry. With Devin Singletary and Zack Moss handling a lot of the work, including several catches for both, it looks like Cook might have to earn opportunities back. Let him earn them while on the waiver wire and pick up Rex Burkhead or Kenneth Gainwell.
Kadarius Toney (WR – New York Giants)
Rostership Percentages:
Yahoo – 70% Ownership
ESPN – 83% Ownership
Sleeper – 77% Ownership
All this talent, but only seven snaps that led to little production. Very low on the depth chart and concerns coming out of training camp; we hope he can get back to targets with Wan’Dale Robinson hurt now. There are a ton of wide receivers for the waiver wire to pick up this week, so if you are looking to make a move, no one can blame you for dropping Toney.
Mike Gesicki (TE – Miami Dolphins)
Rostership Percentages:
Yahoo – 42% Ownership
ESPN – 77% Ownership
Sleeper – 75% Ownership
As fantasy managers, we hope things don’t change too much in the offseason. Unfortunately for Mike Gesicki, everything changed. With limited snaps and even fewer routes run, Gesicki is no longer being used as a wide receiver but now as a traditional tight end, which is unsuitable for him. So look for other options to stream if you were hoping that Mike was a weekly starter.
Just remember that this is only one week. Championships are won starting now with the waiver wire! Please follow me on Twitter for all Redraft advice and my weekly articles at The Undroppables!
