Here are all the players we’re trading this week. And below let’s take a closer look at a few players to trade this week.

Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Raheem Mostert (RB – MIA)

Raheem Mostert was the Dolphins RB1 for the second straight game, playing 73% of the snaps. Totaled 19 touches and scored. Denver’s defense has been decently stingy versus the run this year, so the matchup isn’t ideal for Week 3. And Week 2 was the perfect storm for Mostert, with his snaps and touches bloated by an injury to Salvon Ahmed. I am still in the camp of stashing rookie De’Von Achane, with Mostert’s 31-year-old age and extensive injury history looming.

Kyren Williams (RB – LAR)

Cam Akers is dead to Sean McVay (as he is to me for that pointless field goal as time expired when I had SF – 7) Bruh. Chances are he is going to be traded anyway, so just excited to see this nonsense end.

Anyway, Kyren Williams was RB1, 10 targets, six catches for 48 yards and one receiving TD. 14 carries for 52 yards. Williams played 95% of the snaps. No other Rams RB had a carry. Ronnie Rivers played 5% of the snaps. Through two games, only Tony Pollard has more red zone carries than Williams.

Still, I am hesitant to fully buy into Williams being a consistent fantasy RB1. As I wrote last week, we have seen McVay throw RBs away like garbage. Remember Darrell Henderson? I also have long-term concerns with Williams based on the Rams OL, his size and recent injury track record. Think the best move is to cash out for maximum ROI.

Skyy Moore (WR – KC)

Travis Kelce came back and immediately was the Chiefs’ No. 1 target. Nine targets but caught just four for 26 yards. Was not in a full-time role (64% snap share) coming off his knee injury.

But Kelce he scored – perks of being Patrick Mahomes‘ favorite red zone target. Speaking of targets, Mahomes targeted 12 different players…not ideal for fantasy football purposes. Keep in mind through two weeks with no Kelce and a limited Kelce…nobody has more than 13% target share.
Nobody else saw more than 5 (Kadarius Toney, Justin Watson). Skyy Moore led with 70 receiving yards and scored. The majority of yards came on a 54-catch where he was wide open in the 4th quarter. Toney caught all of his five targets. Fun twist, also fumble for a 12-yard loss. He leads the team in targets through two weeks (10).

Still, Moore’s lack of targets remains concerning. 11% target rate per route run through two games. Woof. Rookie Rashee Rice has the same number of targets and target share (9%) on just 18 routes run (39% target rate per route run). Rice had three targets in Week 2 (one called back for penalty).
Marquez Valdes-Scantling ran the most routes as he tends to do, but a lot of it’s just cardio.

For me, the move is to SELL Skyy Moore. Talked about that in Week 2’s version of this article because he’s just not getting ANY reliable or consistent target share. He scored a big TD in Week 2. Use it as leverage to ship him off. KC plays the Chicago Bears Week 3. No doubt one of these WRs is going to have a big game. Good luck guessing which one. I’ll do my best to find the answer.

Gerald Everett (TE – LAC)

The usage for the Chargers WRs was status quo – Joshua Palmer as WR3, Quentin Johnston buried and played less than Derius Davis – but the tight end usage is noteworthy. Gerald Everett, we have a problem. Donald Parham Jr. played MORE snaps (50% vs 41%) than Everett and ran more routes. YHTSI. Drop Everett if you have not already. I’m dying inside.
