Dumb or Smart Fantasy Move

[richig07]

Okay, I'm in a 12 man keeper league. A lot of the good QB's were kept, so I kind of got the short end of that. Not keeping a QB myself.

My QB's are Flacco and Dalton.

A guy in my league wants Brandon Myers off of my bench, and is offering Big Ben. My starting TE is Jared Cook who looked good in week one.

I figure give up Brandon Myers, and buy low on Big Ben. Between Ben, Flacco, and Dalton. I have to figure one will pan out, or I can play it week to week. Even though I hate taking up that much space with three QB's.

To replace Myers, I have the 2nd waiver wire claim this week. I can MORE than likely get Kellen Winslow. Which, IMO, is an upgrade over Myers anyway. A better insurance policy to Cook.

I feel like I'm basically picking up Ben for free. No?

I could also just ride Cook, and pickup Joique Bell instead. Neglecting to carry two TE's.

Get bell, neglect two te's, and grab ben

I see you're a Steelers fan, but doesn't the Steelers offense at least make you worry about Ben from a fantasy stand point?

absolutely........but who else is out there for you to get ?

Now you can have 3 mediocre FANTASY qb's and play the matchups

Yeah, that's kind of what I figured.

Anything short of a league that starts 2 QBs having 3 on your roster is a massive waste of a spot.
