A players-to-drop column will never be one-size-fits-all, so season these recommendations.
Audric Estimé, RB, Broncos (26%)
Not long ago he was a good pickup, but last week he ranked third in backfield usage, behind Javonte Williams and Jaleel McLaughlin. The future is unwritten, but Estimé is too buried at this point to dream of a play-off advantage. Denver also has a Week 14 bye.

Jonathon Brooks, RB, Panthers (57%)
I understand you may have been holding onto it all season, so there is the Endowment Effect at work. Just understand what Brooks is, just a stopgap pick behind breakout star Chuba Hubbard. This secondary role has a very low ceiling.
Raheem Mostert, RB, Dolphins (64%)
To be honest, Jaylen Wright hasn’t done much lately either. But both backs are significantly behind starter De’Von Achane, and if Achane were to get injured, there’s no guarantee the 32-year-old Mostert would take on a heavy workload.
Quentin Johnston, WR, Chargers (53%)
I’m not saying you should drop it, but you should at least think about it. Johnston has secured just two of his last 13 targets, and he was a complete mess during Monday’s bagel (multiple drops, no catches).
Dalton Schultz, TE, Texans (66%)
He’s stuck with zero touchdowns this season and saw just two catches in Week 12, understandable with Nico Collins healing. Houston also has a Week 14 bye.
