Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Michael Carter (RB – NYJ)
The second-year running back started the season as the lead guy, playing 60.4% of the snaps compared to 37% for Breece Hall over the first two weeks. However, Michael Carter’s role in the offense has started to shrink, playing only 45.4% of the snaps the past three weeks compared to 61.4% for Hall. Last week Carter had eight fewer touches and 164 fewer scrimmage yards than Hall, but he got lucky and found the end zone twice. With Hall taking over as the lead back, now is the time to trade away Carter while his two-touchdown performance is fresh in everyone’s mind. If you can get Cordarrelle Patterson or J.K. Dobbins in return, that’s a deal you should make immediately.

Melvin Gordon (RB – DEN)
The heartbreaking season-ending ACL tear of Javonte Williams pushed many fantasy managers to clamor for the remote possibility of the availability of Melvin Gordon and, subsequently, his backup, Mike Boone. Gordon was said to be considered the bell cow back, but that designation does not hold the same value as we once thought. Gordon is part of an underachieving Broncos offense whose play-calling and game-management skills have been downright embarrassing. Gordon is experiencing fumble issues, and the Broncos figured it would be a good idea to sign veteran RB Latavius Murray to the mix. While Murray didn’t play in Week 5, he will start getting some run shortly. Mike Boone looked effective and was more productive than Gordon, averaging 5.4 yards per carry. Hopefully, you get a fantasy manager to believe that Gordon is the RB1 in Denver and turn that belief into a buy-low RB AJ Dillon or a wide receiver like Alan Lazard or Rashod Bateman,

Antonio Gibson (RB – WAS)
We all know the writing is on the wall for Gibson. Better to get something for him now rather than be forced to question whether or not you should drop him for a different running back in Week 9 while byes are hurting you. I’d start by targeting a down WR like Allen Robinson or Chase Claypool, who could return to flex starting relevance at some point if their teams turn it around. Gibson’s chances are much lower, so get out now before it’s too late.

Nick Chubb (RB – CLE)
Chubb has been amazing this season, leading the league in rushing yards and averaging over six yards per carry. He’s a special runner, but he isn’t involved in the passing game, and the road ahead gets much tougher. Thus far, Chubb has faced cupcake run defenses in the Chargers, Jets, Falcons, and Panthers. Going forward, he’ll only have one more plus matchup in Week 13 against the Texans. The rest of his opponents range from tough to brutal. The schedule shifts this week when he’ll take on the Patriots, followed by the Ravens in Week 7 and the Bengals in Week 8. All three rank in the bottom ten in fantasy points allowed to RBs. Chubb’s volume will keep him steady, but if you can sell him high for a do-it-all back with a better schedule like Aaron Jones, I’d pull the trigger.
