Plainly and simply, this will be your weekly list of those end-of-roster guys that you can safely let go of, with the occasional unfortunate star player that finds his way here due to injury.

Below are my Week 3 cuts and drops for fantasy football. Each week from now until the end of the season, I’ll be offering my thoughts on players who don’t deserve to keep a roster spot on your fantasy football teams.

Let's get to it.

Players to Consider Dropping or Replacing

Greg Olsen (TE, CAR)

After just two weeks, the injuries are piling up. Cam Newton's favorite target broke his foot on Sunday and while it won't necessarily cost him the entire season, it will cost him enough to make him impossible to be worth holding onto. It's time to take to the waiver wire in search of a replacement.

LeGarrette Blount (RB, PHI)

Blount was the primary target of my offseason hate. I disparaged him any chance I got and said he literally was not worth a draft pick in any round. After seeing the same number of carries as me week 2, it's time for the roughly 83% of you that still own him to let go. Darren Sproles is the only Eagles RB of value. The offense and running game in Philly are not good enough to sustain another and Blount is a terrible fit for what the Eagles are trying to do. You shouldn't have drafted him, but if you did, it's time to cut bait.

Austin Hooper (TE, ATL)

I'm actually surprised I have to put him on this list. He's only here because he's apparently 73% owned. Umm...why? He's fine as a weekly TE flier in the case of an injury or a bad matchup, but his ownership percentage is indicative of people legitimately rostering as their TE on purpose. He did nothing week 1 (yes, nothing - a flukey downfield bomb on a broken play for an 80+ yard score does not count) and then after his two week 1 targets, he got exactly two week 2 targets. He's an afterthought for Matt Ryan and should be the same for your roster.

Kerwynn Williams (RB, ARI)

He didn't strike me as a very appealing waiver wire add. Whenever I was questioned in the offseason about who the David Johnson handcuff was, my answer was always the same: "there is none." Andre Ellington led the Cardinals in snaps and Chris Johnson actually looked the best. This is a three way timeshare on one of the five worst teams in the NFL. After his nine carries went for 22 yards against the vaunted Colts defense, you can safely admit Williams is a failed waiver experiment.

Carson Palmer (QB, ARI)

At 60% owned, he's worth putting on this list. Carson Palmer is done. It's over. He's probably going to retire after this year along with Larry Fitzgerald and the whole Cardinals team is going to get blown up and rebuilt around David Johnson. Palmer's physical abilities have completely eroded. He is apparently not worth starting even in the most appealing of matchups. Father Time remains undefeated.

Andy Dalton (QB, CIN)

I have been a defender of Dalton's for years. He was always a lot better than he was given credit for. Andy Dalton has had a good career and he's been a good NFL quarterback...until 2017. The Bengals lost 2017 season (yes, it's lost already) is not entirely on Dalton, but he's certainly not helping. Dalton looks done as well, which is unheard of for a QB not yet age 30. I don't think Dalton's career is over, but I do think his career in Cincinnati is over. The team needs to fire Marvin Lewis and let Dalton walk and start over. Dalton has thrown 66 passes across two games. He has 394 scoreless yards to show for it, not to mention the four interceptions. Dalton will be fantasy relevant again, just not this year.

Jeremy Hill (RB, CIN)

I don't really have sympathy for anyone who drafted him, but I also know that if you drafted him, it didn't cost you much. It was probably worth a late round flier to see what Hill's role was going to be this year. The answer: not much. Hill has been out-touched by Joe Mixon and Giovani Bernard. The Bengals aren't good enough to even get into a goal line situation to give Hill the ball. With the team's season just about over, it only makes sense to increase Mixon's workload and see what he can do as the primary back. That's only a matter of time. Hill's days as a relevant fantasy contributor are probably over.

Adrian Peterson (RB, NO)

Come on guys. He was done last year. Yet somehow he convinced people to buy in to a resurgence this year. I'm not sure how. He's still done. He's a surefire hall of famer and one of the greatest RBs of all time. But it's over. Let him go.

Seahawks RBs not named Chris Carson

At the latest point in draft season, as many as four Seattle RBs were being drafted - Eddie Lacy, Thomas Rawls, CJ Prosise, and Chris Carson. The first three do not need to be owned. Lacy was a healthy scratch on Sunday because he is terrible at football and, as I've said before, will be out of the league by 2019. Rawls started and then barely played. Prosise still has a realistic ceiling, but he's the satellite back on one of the worst offenses in the league running behind the worst offensive line in the league. Carson dominated carries and was the guy Pete Carroll trusted to burn the clock late in the fourth quarter. The other three should not be owned.
