Josh Goater has been injured and absent for all three rounds, sitting at $119.9k with an 18 BE and zero average. The RED signal is well placed — at minimum rookie price there's theoretical upside, but no game time and no confirmed return date make him a bench gamble not worth taking. Avoid and only revisit if he returns to North's defensive lineup with clear job security.
