Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Rhamondre Stevenson (RB – NE)

Rhamondre Stevenson and Ezekiel Elliott shared the rushing duties. Stevenson had 8 rushing attempts, gaining 24 yards, while Elliott carried the ball 8 times for 21 yards. The Patriots struggled to find significant success on the ground. Shocker.

Elliott had a notable role in the passing game, catching all 4 targets for 17 yards. Stevenson had just 2 targets (both on the 1st drive). Snaps were nearly 50/50, although Stevenson ran more routes (15 vs 10).

This was Stevenson’s worst game and lowest volume output with just 10 touches. You’d be selling low if you move him especially ahead of a great matchups against the Raiders, Bills and Dolphins. Buy low.

He looked much better in this game than he has despite how bad the Patriots offense has played. Opened the game with an 8-yard rush, followed by rushes of 4, 4, 0, 8, -5, 7, 0 and 5. If he wasn’t getting completely stuffed, he was racking up 4-plus yards on the ground. The major loss came on a botched pitch by Jones.

Considering the current state of the Patriots offense – Bill Belichick said they need to start over – I’d bet he just rides in the best offensive players he has. That guy is Stevenson.

James Cook (RB – BUF)

James Cook. WOOF. 5 for -4 yards. 3 for 25 on 4 targets. The run game was completely abandoned.

Still…The Giants and Patriots up next.

So, I’d be buying the bounce back on the talented second-year RB.
Still played 62% of the snaps, tied for a season high. 63% route participation.

Brian Robinson Jr. (RB – WAS)

In the backfield Thursday night, Antonio Gibson dominated the snaps with Washington facing a negative game script. 54% Gibson, 36% Brian Robinson. Gibson ran 27 routes to Robinson’s 18. However, Robinson still earned 4 targets catching all four for 33 yards. Gibson saw 6 targets catching four for 64 yards (including a nice deep ball down the sideline).

The game scripts for Washington when the fall behind result in scary rushing lines for Brob (6 for 10 yards) but the fact that he is continuing to earn designed receiving looks as me wanting to buy. Nobody else carries the ball for the Commanders. He also saw 6 carries by the start of the second quarter, and the run game was abandoned completely in the second half. They didn’t run once in the second half with a RB.

Conversely, Gibson’s own receiving chops and abilities are a reminder that he should be rostered. He owns standalone appeal when Washington must air it out…and would be a bell cow if Robinson got hurt.

I think you want to acquire the Commanders RBs. Falcons and Giants are up next.

Chris Godwin (WR – TB)

The Buccaneers’ offensive attack primarily revolved around quarterback Baker Mayfield, who was efficient with 25 completions out of 32 attempts for 246 yards and three touchdowns. Mayfield spread the ball effectively among his targets, with Chris Godwin being his favorite, securing 8 receptions for 114 yards. Deven Thompkins and Mike Evans also contributed significantly with 4 catches for 45 yards and 3 catches for 40 yards, respectively. Evans left early with a hamstring injury. Thompkins did not play the most snaps after Evans injury. Trey Palmer (75% snap share) ran a route on nearly 80% of the dropbacks. Thompkins was around 61%.

Godwin blew up with Evans out, and Mayfield has shown he can support at least one fantasy WR every single week. Buy Godwin now, with the TD regression calling his name. Only receiver this year with 7-plus red-zone targets and zero TDs.
