Fantasy Football Trade Advice: Rashee Rice, Drake London, Rhamondre Stevenson (Week 8)

Another week of the 2023 NFL season is mostly in the books, and it’s time to hit the trade market in your league! It’s never a bad idea to get ahead of your league mates and hit explore potential trade options early in the week. Here is all our early fantasy football trade advice for Week 8.

Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Three Players to Buy

Rashee Rice (WR – KC)

Rashee Rice is cementing himself as a legitimate piece of the Kansas City offense and one of their top pass-catching options behind stud tight end Travis Kelce. Rice has seen five or more targets in five of the season’s first seven weeks and is beginning to see his yardage totals increase (72 yards in week six and 60 yards and a touchdown in week seven). He should be a lock to continue to see work at the current rate, but there’s a chance his role will continue to grow as his rookie season rolls on. This might be the last week where there’s a reasonable buy window for Rice if the production keeps up at this pace.

Drake London (WR – ATL)

There were high hopes for Drake London this season, and then he recorded the dreaded zero receptions for zero yards stat line in week one of the season. Since then, he’s averaged eight targets per game, five receptions, and 63 receiving yards. We know that the Falcons are a team that wants to run the ball regularly, but London is now producing despite that fact and with a less-than-ideal quarterback situation. It’s worth poking around to see if the current manager rostering London is down on the scheme fit and is willing to sell for less than they should.

Rhamondre Stevenson (RB – NE)

Despite seeing fewer rushing attempts than his teammate Ezekiel Elliott in their week seven upset over the Buffalo Bills, now isn’t necessarily the time to panic over Rhamondre Stevenson‘s role. If anything, I’m using this as an opportunity to try and buy a little low on him. He hauled in all six of his targets in week seven for six receptions and 51 receiving yards. His receiver ability should keep him locked into fantasy lineups, even if he shares rushing work with Elliott. He’s on pace for just over 55 receptions this season, which is a boon to any running back’s fantasy value. Stevenson is a locked and loaded RB2 that could potentially be had for RB3 prices after week seven.
