    Default #1 waiver on Leino?

    I have basically had the #1 waiver spot for most of the season, but no worthy player has yet to be dropped for me to use it. Is Leino that guy I should maybe use it on? I would be dropping someone like Ryder, Wheeler, J. Jokinen, or Parenteau for him.

    Nope, all the guys you would drop have twice or almost twice as many pts as Leino. Doesnt make any sense to waste the #1 on him.

    Gotta agree with that.

    I can't see anybody clawing to snatch up Leino anyways. I'd keep an eye on his situation to see if playing with a couple of big bodies in Adam and Kassian gets him going but I wouldn't waste my #1 waiver priority on him.

    I get that it feels like you're wasting it if you don't use it and I agree with that but I really strongly feel that 1) Leino won't get added and 2) I'd rather have all of the guys that you would drop instead of Leino.

    Leino sucks now that he's in BUF... buried under too much depth.

    I wouldn't add him period much less use a waiver position unless you're in a massive league.

    I agree. I would hold off on Leino. He sucks.

    I don't think you need him and definitely keep your waiver.
