    Default Burns or ?

    Being a CAR homer, I drafted Burns. He killed it last year. The guy does have 4 points and 2 PPP so I'm not complaining. But this year TDA seems to have PP1 locked down. I am wondering if I can do better. Looking for PPP mostly. Here are some candidates:

    Ghost - he seems to be on a roll with DET
    Sanderson - PP1 for OTT?
    Luke Hughes - Not scoring much yet, but seems to be PP1 for NJD
    Klingberg and Rielly - remarkably, both available in my league

    Should I drop Burns for one of these or just wait it out?

    Thanks! Will rep!

    I think it's too early to say personally, but with that many quality options I think you can safely wait a little while longer to see what shakes out. If I was going to make a move I would probably favor Ghost, Hughes, Sanderson, in that order. Although I have to admit placing how to rank Sanderson and Hughes is tough. On the one hand Sanderson has more competition, but on the other hand he also has more experience. BUT! Hughes will probably get sheltered offensive minutes to limit liability... Detroit is just on fire right now though and Ghost seems to be getting the vip treatment so that one seems like the top choice as things currently stand. They showed last year with Hronek that they don't mind reserving Seider to play tougher minutes against the opposition.

    as said keep Burns for now but Sanderson has to be on your radar as he is looking like a star in the making.
