My roster is below. Need to drop someone soon when Achane is taken off IR. It’s down to Downs, McBride or Cleveland D and I’m leaning downs with his knee injury coupled with not being likely to start him now that most of my BYEs are done. Normally I’d drop Cleveland D but they have some good matchups still.
Starters:
QB - Herbert
WR - Lamb, Aiyuk
RB - Barkley, White
TE - LaPorta
Flex - Achane
Flex - Olave
Kicker - Bass
Def - Baltimore
Bench - Kyren Williams, K. Herbert, McBride, Dell, Downs, Cleveland D
I see low value in Downs as well, especially since you have plenty of depth in flex positions already.
My decision is Nico Collins or Jerome ford
Nico Collins vs Ford is tough, too early to call that one given Collins’ injury.
a. He hasn't played in almost 2 months
b. CHI schedule down the stretch is brutal for RB's (DET 4th best vs the run, MIN 6th best, bye week, DET again, CLE 5th best vs the run then ARI (good matchup) for most league championships if you're still alive)
c. Foreman has done a decent job in his absence, so I think at best he's in a timeshare
Yes but he should be coming back soon.

Good point in Herbert. Ultimately I’m unlikely to use my last RB or WR so it may just come down to being a defensive drop - who’s least likely to help an opponent.
