    Default Would you drop any of these guys for Hixon? (Floyd, Cobb, Hartline, Roberts)

    Hey All,

    I own Nicks, and Hixon somehow is still available as a FA in my league so I'm thinking of adding him before someone else does, but I kind of like the upside on my bench players, so I'm not sure if any of these guys are worth dropping for him.

    Here are my bench WR's:
    WR - Malcom Floyd
    WR - Randall Cobb
    WR - Brian Hartline
    WR - Andre Roberts

    Do you guys think I should drop any of those guys up above for Hixon, or should I just hold tight and stick to what I have? In this league you can start 3 WR's, and my other 2 usual starters (along with Nicks) are Marshall+Torrey Smith.

    Thanks!!

    Toughie.. Short term, i.e. this week, I like Hixon over most of those guys, but if Nicks comes back next week his value plummets.

    Going forward I would take him over maybe Cobb or Roberts, especially as a Nicks owner (I’m a Nicks owner and just dropped Lafell to pick up Hixon). I think he probably has a higher value for you than any one else in your league - if Nicks is hurt, Hixon’s value jumps, and while his value drops if Nicks is healthy... you have healthy Nicks you can play!

    Hartline is the only sure keeper I would hang on to in your list but like others, my first drop would be Cobb. Lots of weapons in front of him to make him relevant and hes not really a consideration in the red zone.

    Keep 20/25 at seasons end, Cut 5 to FA for redrafting

    Exactly right.

    Floyd is the top WR in San Diego. Hartline is a #2, but still a starter. Ditto Roberts.

    I wouldn't drop these guys, but I would drop Cobb.
