Who would you drop?

   12 team league, H2H, 13 man roster, 9 category scoring.  Ricky Rubio is currently a FA, and I am planning on picking him up.  Need to drop someone though, almost certainly a big.  Current Roster is:

Lowry, Lillard, Mo Williams, Harden, Batum, Deng, Bosh, Varejao, Milsap, B Lopez, Patterson, Jason Thompson, R Lopez.

Leaning towards dropping one of Patterson, Thompson, or Robin Lopez.  Patterson is best for pts & 3pt, but I really don't need the points (far & away the highest scoring team in league). Thompson is best rebounder, and seems to be safe in his minutes.  Robin is best shot blocker (I need blocks more than pts or reb), but his playing time will likely drop when A Davis returns.

I think I am going to drop Robin, but I can't decide.  Patterson has blocked 5 shots his past two games, and Thompson is a decent shot blocker, so I might be OK there. Just can't decide.

	I'd drop Thompson. Lopez's playing time won't change much when Davis comes back. The Hornets/Pelicans have Lopez starting next to Davis. The other thing you could do is package Thompson and Patterson in a trade. I don't think Patterson's value will ever be higher.
