It's situational for him right now. I dropped him in a 12 team H2H where I'm punting FT% and already have my defensive stats very well covered. That plus Orlando's H2H playoff schedule (only two games in the semifinal week) made him expendable for me. But if it were a roto league, and my team was not otherwise strong defensively, and there was no must-add player still out there in the FA pool, I'd hold. So you have to consider your team needs and league context and make the decision on that basis.

In other words, he's in the "it depends" zone right now. No longer an automatic-must-hold-everywhere guy.

Only if you have to. If you can keep squatting on him, that's still the preferred play, but I get it.
