You’re waking up on Tuesday reading all that you can about the players that you should be picking up off the waiver wire as you prepare for Week 10 of fantasy football in 2022.
But it’s likely there aren’t as many things written about who you should be dropping to grab those players. That’s what this weekly column — keep ’em or dump ’em! — will hopefully answer for you: Some help in the debate over who you should keep or drop in order to improve your team.
It’s not the biggest of waiver wire weeks, but let’s dive in to help you with who to keep or drop:
1
QB Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
He stinks. Get rid of him.
Right now Aaron Rodgers should not be rostered in fantasy leagues, period. Via the #FFHappyHour podcast @peacock @NBCSEdgeFB @croucherJD pic.twitter.com/2DJwxobFKE

VERDICT: Drop him
2
QB Derek Carr, Las Vegas Raiders
I ended up with Carr in a few leagues as my backup, thinking he could be a top-10 QB. But he’s been kind of meh, going over 300 yards exactly once in a game. I’d be fine with dropping him.
VERDICT: Drop him
3
RB Darrell Henderson Jr., Los Angeles Rams
Sigh. Still can’t drop him even with the Rams’ running game struggling and the looming activation of Kyren Williams.
VERDICT: Keep him
4
RB Brian Robinson Jr., Washington Commanders
Even with Antonio Gibson grabbing more work than we expected, Robinson’s volume is enough that you need to hang on to him.
VERDICT: Keep him
5
WR Hunter Renfrow, Las Vegas Raiders
This might not be the week to drop names like Renfrow, but let’s debate: He’s seen just four targets or less in his past four games, and although he had 55 yards in Week 7, his volume has been gobbled up by Davante Adams.
Davante Adams: 17/36 tgts, only 1 catch in 2H. Hollins/Renfrow un-startable
F. Moreau: 57/59 snaps, 5 tgts w/ Waller still out
Jacobs HUGE regression: 19.2 PPR points last 2 weeks combined. Only 20/39 routes run vs Jax
Carr down to 14th in EPA+CPOE amongst QBs

VERDICT: Drop him
6
RB Gus Edwards, Baltimore Ravens
The injury and absence in Week 9 stinks. So does the fact that he has a bye in Week 10. So does Kenyan Drake’s presence. But you still need to roster him in case he’s back in the mix against the awful Panthers.
VERDICT: Keep him
