Week 92026 ยท Half-PPR ยท DROP / ADD

Should I drop Mark Andrews for Oronde Gadsden II?

THE DROP / ADD CALL

The longer-term call needs more data

The Week 9 estimates are Mark Andrews 4.9 and Oronde Gadsden II 4.1 FP. The remaining-week outlook is incomplete, so that weekly difference alone is not enough to recommend dropping Mark Andrews.

Forecast updated Nov 6, 8:17 PM ET

WHY THIS MOVE?

A better week is only part of the decision.

Mark Andrews is 60.7% rostered; Oronde Gadsden II is 1.6% rostered on ESPN. Ownership describes availability across leagues, not yours. Compare the weeks you need covered and the value you give up. A replacement can help now while weakening a later lineup.

THE HOLD, NOT JUST THE CLAIM

What comes after this week?

The Drop / Add assessment uses the immediate and future FF outlook together. For a bye replacement, the hold decision starts after the bye. Totals describe the player, not extra points for your roster. Weeks 15โ€“18 are a calendar view; your leagueโ€™s playoff weeks may differ. Green highlights the higher displayed projection when both outlooks are known; ties and incomplete comparisons stay neutral.
