Post subject:  Who should I claim, Royal or McKinnon?

Got the #1 waiver priority, been sitting on it all season. Should I use it today to grab Royal or McKinnon? And if I do who would you drop?

1 pt PPR, I'm 4-0.

Here is my team....

QB: Newton
QB; Dalton
RB: L. Bell
RB: Asiata
RB: K. Robinson
RB: Sankey
RB; R. Bush
RB: Ivory
RB: F Jax
WR: Dez
WR: Maclin
WR: D. Jax
WR: A. Hawkins
TE: J. Graham
K: NOvak
D: Steelers for now


I'm leaning towards taking McKinnon and dropping Robinson. Robinson has been solid, but INgram is coming back soon and they have so many RB's there. Royal is tempting, but I don't really need him and I'm thinking about last year when he got off to a hot start and then did nothing the rest of the way.

McKinnon. He is the best back on the Vikes (just doesn't get the goal line carries).

Royal's numbers are bloated by out-of-the-ordinary TD totals.

eddie royal's on a pace for 20TD or something ridiculous, but he did the same thing last year (feasted early, faded into sheer and utter craptitude)

i'd go for mckinnon in the long term because he'd ultimately have more upside, but you might have to miss a couple 15pt weeks from royal waiting for said upside to manifest. you'll be fine in weeks 12+ w/mckinnon most likely.

a sophisticated player will grab Marvin Jones coming off injury

I did that, but dropped him for Larry Fitzgerald. Somebody released him to pickup Denver's defense.
