Should I drop someone and pick up Webber?

Chris Webber looks like he is going to be a starter (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/02/05/SPVEURQD4.DTL)

Who would you drop from this line up and why if you wanted to pick up Webber?

My team: (this is a 10 team h2h daily league)
Jason Kidd
Amare Stoudemire
Rashard Lewis
Gerald Wallace
Manu Ginobili
Leandro Barbosa
Mehmet Okur
Mo Williams
Randy Foye
Tayshaun Prince
Darko Milicic
Chris Kaman
Grant Hill
Linas Kleiza

The first glance choices would seem to be Milicic and Foye.

But now with Gasol gone, Milicic will see more playing time and his rebounding will be more stable on the high ends along with his blocked shots. His last two games without Gasol were double doubles. So that keeps me from dropping him to soon.

Foye just got back on the court and his original ranking put him at 73rd best in the league. It will take him some time to get back into playing shape and find his shot and/or role on the team, and Minnesota needs him. So again I hesitate at dropping him to soon.

...but I don't want the opportunity of getting Webber to pass me up.
GSW = faster pace game = more stats to go around = good to get Webber

I wouldn't bother dropping anyone for Webber. Webber is going to be in a major timeshare with Biedrins and Harrington so his stats aren't going to be that good.

If you had to drop someone, go with Kleiza.

Webber isn't a good fit in GS.

Kleiza is the guy I'd drop, since Darko and Foye will get better this season
