The Cut List (Week 10) - Time to Let Go?

Week 9 was an all-around awful one for me from a fantasy/gambling perspective, so I'm a little ticked off as I settle in to write this week's edition of the Cut List.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling (WR, GB) - Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Betting on the Packers offense outside of Davante Adams or Aaron Jones takes guts, but here we are.
