Drop RGIII

Perhaps this is an overreaction, but I’m fine with you dropping Robert Griffin III, especially in shallower leagues. It’s not even because he started his season with a-7.21 Passing Net Expected Points performance, the seventh-worst in the NFL. It’s because that wasn’t an out-of-nowhere performance, having played poorly in the preseason.

The other reason you can safely drop RGIII is because the quarterback position is insanely replaceable in fantasy football. Trusting Griffin each week in your quarterback spot isn’t an optimal way to play the game, and this will force you to make smarter decisions rather than holding on to a headache.

You can yell at me via Twitter when he rushes for 68 yards and two scores next weekend.
