What to do with my #1 waiver rank
Our rank is kept from week to week, and I havent picked anything from the waivers all season long, so I have held the #1 rank since week 2.
We have two divisions with 5 teams in each and I'm currently tied for 1st in my division with a 7-2 record (I'm slightly ahead on points for). The winner of each division gets a BYE in the first week of the playoffs (week 14). I am already qualified for the playoffs, so I'm only fighting to secure that BYE week.
My squad is strong (probably the strongest).
QB: Brees
RB1: Reggie Bush
RB2: Spiller
WR1: AJ Green
WR2: D Thomas
WR3: Gordon
TE: Graham
W/R: Gore
W/T: Gronkowski
K and DST: Streaming
Bench: Andre Brown, Ivory, J Bell, Hunter, Baldwin (bye week replacement for Gronk) and another random WR (bye week replacement for Gordon).
So I've got Reggie and Gore handcuffed. Spiller is "handcuffed" through having Ivory and Andre Brown on the bench. My starting lineup would take a hit if one of my WRs or TEs went down, so I'm considering to trade one of Brown/Ivory for a WR2 type of player.
Two questions:
1. What would you do with the #1 waiver rank? How good of an opportunity must a player have for me to burn it? (I didnt pick Mike James, Harry Douglas etc.)
2. Would you move a RB for a WR2 (and maybe throw out some names to target)?
