Maybe if Randolph (4.4M) is gonna play BB comes into the picture for you but needs at least an extra transfer/hit.

Saw a few bits on Twitter with people saying they're going to wait a while, can't really see what the value is in that if you're pretty sure you're going to play it. I will certainly be playing it as I have very few playing players. I guess if more games will be added to the GW or something, that could change. Do any of you have any thoughts on this?

joeyboy11 wrote: » This is my free hit draft activated tonight. I won’t let covid ruin the fun of playing it! Darlow Cancelo, Holding, Dias Kdb, Bruno, Rashford, Son, Grealish Kane, Wilson Playing subs: Mitchell, Brewster It’s nice to have one week of not being terrified of the Son/Kane combo. I’m not sure on Grealish. Between him and Zaha. Does the fact I have value built up in Grealish matter if I transfer him out on free hit and then want to get him back on the free hit draft again? Say if zaha got injured in training the day before the deadline?

Could end up being only 2/3 games on, what's to say and then you may just use a FT and a -4 to try get 6/7 players and roll on. My team is aimed towards DGW19 now and that's my main worry. I'll take BGW18 as it comes, I've a feeling it's going to be a disaster either way.
