Should I drop Matthew Stafford for Malik Willis?

One scoring page covers these positions; reception points do not affect this comparison.

THE DROP / ADD CALL

The right move depends on the weeks you need

Malik Willis is behind by 0.1 FP this week, ahead by 17.7 FP across the remaining schedule, and ahead by 2.9 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. Matthew Stafford is questionable; an injury designation alone is not a reason to drop him.

Forecast updated Nov 3, 2:34 AM ET

WHY THIS MOVE?

A better week is only part of the decision.

Matthew Stafford is 91.9% rostered; Malik Willis is 10.6% 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. Totals describe the player, not extra points for your roster. Weeks 15–18 are a calendar view; your league’s playoff weeks may differ. Green highlights the higher displayed projection when both outlooks are known; ties and incomplete comparisons stay neutral.
