THE DROP / ADD CALL

The right move depends on the weeks you need

Dak Prescott is ahead by 3.7 FP this week, ahead by 1.2 FP across the remaining schedule, and ahead by 2.2 FP in Weeks 15–18. The horizons disagree or are too close for an unconditional drop. Use GamePlan to check your actual starters, bench depth and league playoff weeks. These are player forecast totals, not extra starter points or playoff-odds gains for your team. Kyler Murray is questionable; an injury designation alone is not a reason to drop him.
