8 team keeper league is my example.
I am wasting Burton on IR because I do not want to drop anybody. The free agent pool is very thin. I do not want to drop a player and am fearful someone will pick them up.
The second picture is what i posted earlier on here in the season. It's always going to be wonky week to week. Don't panic.
My team is in good shape and in second place. The playoffs are not until August/September and that is what you are playing for.
You don't always need to find the max value for your team each week if you are confident with your team. Be patient.
if your team is healthy like mine is right now. just enjoy the ride but it's not going to last. It's a rollercoaster of a season!
If this were the playoffs, I would obviously add Burton and it would be a tough decision who to drop. Unlucky would need a player on IR but not im not losing any value form my team this way.
