THE DROP / ADD CALL

Lean: keep Aaron Rodgers

Aaron Rodgers retains a 15.1 FP remaining-schedule advantage. Gardner Minshew II leads this week by 9.6 FP, but a short-term fill-in does not justify losing the stronger projected hold. Check for a lower-cost roster spot if you need coverage. These are player forecast totals, not extra starter points or playoff-odds gains for your team.

Forecast updated Nov 3, 1:19 AM ET

WHY THIS MOVE?

A better week is only part of the decision.

Aaron Rodgers is 42.3% rostered; Gardner Minshew II is 0.0% 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.
