Should I? If so, who do I drop?

12 team .5 ppr. I have a bye this week, and If I am going to get Akers, I want to do it today before I would have to get him off the waiver wire.

Other running backs on my roster are Kamara and Ekeler.

What about the rest of your team.

Sanders and Gaskin need to be rostered in 12 tm.

I wouldn’t drop Gaskin or Sanders for Akers.. especially Gaskin. He could be a league winner. With Kamara, Ekeler, Gaskin and Sanders, you’re in good shape at RB. I would have to know what the rest of your roster looks like in order to know what else you could do to pick up Akers. 4th WR, backup TE..

Rest of team:

QB: Murray

WR: Metcalf, J. Jones, Jefferson, Woods.

TE: Goedert

Kicker: Koo

D: Miami and Rams

Only reason I am thinking of adding Akers is that he seems to be getting the lions share of the workload over the past few games. I drafted him early and then cut him after a few weeks. And if they keep up Akers workload he seems to have favorable matchups in week 15 and 16 if I need him.

Miami has Pats, @Raiders
Rams has @Sea, Ari.

You have a bye this week
What combination of those two defenses are you planning to play in weeks 15 and 16?

Thats what you should be figuring out

Then I wouldnt drop any of them

If 2Rb, 2WRs, 1 Flex, then I assume you'd be starting some combination of Kamara, Ekeler, Metcalf, Justin Jefferson, Julio, or Gaskin

Gaskin was incredibly reliable before he got hurt and his first game back he put up double digit points in .5 PPR

I dont see why would start Akers over any of those guys

Actually Rams have the Jets week 15 so I will definitely play them then. Don’t like either D for week 16, so might pick up another D for championship if I am in.

Also, Jonnu Smith just became available as did Godwin. Pick either of those guys up? Thanks, love the info on this board.

I would pick Akers up only for insurance purposes. And yes, it is 2 Rb, 2 Wr, and flex. Also, bench is 4 spots and no IR
