I'm in a double flex, triple DP, no D/ST league.

This guy has been a joke. Do I wait it out and let him sit on the bench, or do I find a better immediate flex solution?

The potential big games that he could have are just too much to toss away. And with byes starting next week you might hit the lottery just when you need it.

If there's some real diamonds in the wire I guess I'd consider it, but it'd have to be a real solid find on the wire.

Depends on who is on the wire. I would put him on the bench if I have a decent enough alternative.

ppl dropped Greg Jennings and Colston in my 10 team PPR league this past week - I might be cutting bait on Torrey, unless I can move him before next week's waiver claims.

I wouldn't bother with Jennings. Colston maybe but he is not a must start at this point in his career. More or less like Smith hit or miss type of play.

I think Colston is a much, much, much better and safer choice than Torrey. Absolutely make that move.

I am a disappointed Torrey owner and am holding on hoping for better, but I would grab Colston and drop Torrey at this point if he were available.

yea, I'm buying the Saints offense being a lot better with the majority of fantasy weeks left they will be playing at home.

I got Smith. I've been patient but I'm shopping him now and may cut him outright. He's getting targets but he's not catching jack this year through 3 games. It's looking more and more like Steve Smith is the true #1 and Torrey Smith's value is solely dependent on getting a deep TD.

Game plans could change significantly now though. No Pitta, could be more usage for Smith

Guess it depends on the league, we have 3 starting receivers and a FLEX in a 12 team leage, would never dream of cutting Torrey.

That is what I am counting on or I would be tempted to find another option.

Really thought the addition of Steve Smith would open him up for more consistent big plays, but now all the deep balls he makes his living on are going to Smith Sr.

Thanks for all the advice btw guys. Good stuff.
