Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Breece Hall (RB – NYJ)

If I were to buy-low on any Jets player, it would be Breece Hall. The hope is the Jets just pound the ground game to protect Zach Wilson, with Hall leading the charge. The Patriots defense didn’t look great versus the run in Week 2, and I don’t think the Jets have any choice but to go full blown operation ground-and-pound to compliment their elite defense.

Brandon Aiyuk (WR – SF)

It was a quiet game for Brandon Aiyuk (6 targets) but he took some shots and might have been playing through some pain. He only played 53% of the snaps. I’d buy low. He still was the leader in air yards (63%) and still ran a route on 77% of dropbacks. Doubled George Kittle‘s targets. Kittle remains a bust candidate as the clear-cut third option in the pecking order. 6 catches through two games.
And through two games in 2023, Aiyuk owns a 28% target share and is the leader in air yards. Samuel leads the team with a 31% target share.

Kenneth Walker III (RB – SEA)

Kenneth Walker had great receiving usage in Week 1…not so much in Week 2. 1 catch for 11 yards on 2 targets. Zach Charbonnet also saw two targets and added four carries for 16 yards. One of which came inside the 5-yard line in the 4th quarter. Wouldn’t overly read into this considering Walker scored twice and totaled 7 carries in the red zone. Also maintained his Week 1 snap rate and touch load versus the other backs (18 to 7). Charbonnet didn’t play more but got more work running a route on 22% of dropbacks (24% in Week 1). Walker’s routes dropped from 55% to 40%. There’s going to be a give-and-take with Walker when it comes to his receiving, but if the trade off is the red-zone usage; it’s a net positive. Solid schedule coming up for the Hawks with Carolina, New York, Cincy and Arizona on deck. I would be a buyer of Walker.

As for Charbonnet, he’s just a handcuff at this point with little to no standalone value. If you need to make a cut for instant production, he’d be droppable in my eyes in shallower formats. 4.5 touches per game through two weeks. He first entered the game during the team’s second drive. Noteworthy that he was the preferred back in the two-minute drill. So, I’d do my best to hold him because he is built with a three down workload that could be MASSIVE if Walker were to get hurt. All in all, keep em stashed.
