Just drop Heyward-Bey?
 
So, his neck seems to be ok, but he definitely has a concussion. How soon could he be back? 4 weeks? 5?

Depends what is available on the wire and how much bench space you have.

I dropped him for Bilal Powell before he was on the stretcher.

Sounds cold, but this guy is just maddening to own until they get a real QB in OAK. And I should state we have a 3 WR league and Cruz and Brown are my top 2 with Garcon out, so I was rotating HeyBey, Rice, Titus... I picked up Hankerson in the meantime for R Jennings to fill in until Garcon is back....

Not sure why I used a draft pick on this guy as I knew it would be a headache...

As with everything it depends on context. If there are good immediate options on the wire, then it's something to consider.

14 team league, so not many gems on the wire. We start QB, 2x RB, 3x WR, Flex, TE, D and have 6 spots on the bench. Right now my benched players are:
Locker, Best, Ryan Williams, Heyward-Bey, LaFell, O Daniels.

Some players that are available: Hill (W), Sanders (W), Blackmon (W), Robinson, Binns, Stokley, Walter.

Dont think any of those are worth speding a waiverrank on, but I will probably drop Heyward for Blackmon if nobody picks him up on friday.

I haven't looked at Blackmon's numbers, but just the fact that Gabbert is throwing to him would be enough for me to steer clear. Gabbert is horrible. Don't let the points from Week 1 fool you, the Vikings secondary looked like a badminton team.

I might stand pat, but I'd be starting Lafell over him for sure.
