Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Players to Sell

Cam Akers (RB – LAR)

Look before the haters see. Cam Akers averaged 5.1 yards per carry on a team-leading 12 attempts with a rushing TD. Darrell Henderson Jr. had just four carries and one target.

Although not everything was great. Zero targets, and he fumbled at the goal line in the 4th quarter. And after being out-snapped by Henderson in Week 2, the duo split snaps exactly 50/50, with Akers obviously being more involved on a touch basis.

And Akers’ touches almost exclusively came in the second half. In the first half, he had just 2 carries for -1 yards to Henderson’s 4 for 17.

All things considered, I think the wise move is to put Akers on the trade block. The Rams offense isn’t as good as it was last season and Akers still hasn’t done enough to completely bury Henderson as the no doubt RB1 in the offense. Factor in a brutal matchup versus San Fran in Week 4 and the time to sell Akers is now… as painful as it is to admit for someone that was very high on Akers this offseason.

DK Metcalf (WR – SEA)

Of course, the week I decide to bury DK Metcalf on the FantasyPros Football Podcast he buries me with five catches for 64 yards and 1 TD. But Metcalf still only out-targeted Tyler Lockett by one (12 vs 11) and is still second on the team in targets this season. Weeks where both Lockett and Metcalf hit are going too far and few between with Geno Smith at QB because they won’t play the Falcons every week. Sell high on Metcalf’s name brand. Again, it took 12 targets and Metcalf still couldn’t crack 65 receiving yards…

Allen Lazard (WR – GB)

Allen Lazard played 90% of the snaps in Week 3, but still only commanded 6 targets. It’s been back-to-back weeks with a meh target share for Lazard (23%,12%) despite full-time usage, although his fantasy production has remained steady due to his two TD scores. Perfect time to sell a player that is not being targeted at a high rate versus his teammates.
