Fantasy Football Trade Advice
Derek Carr constantly kept missing Chris Olave, limiting him to one catch for 4 yards on 6 targets. 146 air yards converted into nothing. Woof. Are we sure that Carr is a good match for Olave a month in?
This was a concern I had entering the year. However, for the short-term would view Olave as a buy-low, as he checks off the boxes of a buy-low air yards WR. One of just 6 WRs with 500-plus air yards this season.
Olave ($6,900 on DraftKings) and Shaheed ($3,800) are intriguing buy-low DFS options as well for the upcoming Week 5 slate.
Patriots and Texans up next, both who are extremely thin at cornerback.
Jaylen Waddle recorded 4 receptions for 46 yards on 5 targets.
Not many defenses have the personnel to limit the Dolphins offense, so you must buy low on some of these poor performances.
The Giants (off a short week at home), Panthers and Eagles are the next three matchups. Look for the Dolphins offense to get right back on track.
Hill and Achane are probably untouchable to acquire, so Waddle remains the priority target. Even after a slow start to the year, he still ranks 15th in yards per route run.
Trevor Lawrence had an okay day, amassing 207 passing yards on 23 completions. He threw one touchdown pass to Calvin Ridley. Ridley only caught two passes including the 30-yard touchdown (7% target share). The fact that he has been this little involved and disappointing the last three weeks (w/o Zay Jones last two weeks) makes Week 1 look like a mirage. He just hasn’t looked anything like that. With Jones coming back it adds another layer of complexion in the target pecking order.
Last week, I recommended that you sell high on Kirk and buy low on Ridley. Both guys were productive in Week 4. So I think I am going to continue my stance of buying low on Ridley. Not because I think he is a locked-and-loaded WR1 rest of season, but because I think he’s “safer” option to chase with Jones returning. Kirk has undoubtedly benefitted the most from Jones’ absence in the last two and half weeks. And when Jones returns, it could spell trouble for Kirk. Sell high especially ahead of a matchup versus the Bills who have been tough on slot WRs this season. They just held Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle in check in Week 4. Meanwhile, Ridley should see more favorable looks on the outside as the Bills defense just lost cornerback, Tre’Davious White, with a season-ending torn ACL injury.
Zay Flowers was quiet in a bad matchup – 3 for 56 on 4 targets. Not worried. Buy low opportunity. Played 98% of the snaps. 100% route participation. Saw nearly half the team’s air yards (47%) and a solid 22% target share with the Ravens not forced to push the game script against a rookie QB.
Easy game. 30% target share through the first month of the season. $5.5K on DraftKings in Week 5. Wheels are up.
