Get the go-ahead to make those drops ahead of waivers
1 min read
What is the Cut List? The Cut List is our baseline guide for who you can drop off your Fantasy rosters to make room for those big waiver-wire adds this week. We’ve arranged the cut candidates by position, then by the depth of the league. This will help you in small leagues (10 teams or less), large leagues (14-plus teams) and the more commonly known 12-team formats.
Please note: It’s never a good idea to cut a player for no reason. Fantasy owners should only cut players they don’t envision themselves using in exchange for players they think they will eventually start. Just because a player you have is on this list does not mean he should immediately be cut.
Finally, always assume that any player you cut will be considered by everyone else in your league. If you think the player you’re cutting is for sure going to get picked up, maybe you shouldn’t cut that player.
