Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Garrett Wilson (WR – NYJ)

Garrett Wilson had his worst game, 3-54-0 on a team-high 7 targets. Happens. Better than a zero. He’s tough to justify as a buy low given his QB situation, even though he’s been productive despite the QB woes.

Still posted a 27% target share and an insane 59% air yard share (107 air yards). His season-long 59% air yard share ranks 3rd in the NFL. 5th in weighted opportunities.

Eagles will be tough next week, but schedule gets back to soft between the Giants, Chargers and Raiders after Philly. I think he’s an interesting buy low.

Evan Engram (TE – JAC)

Evan Engram (8 targets) and Zay Jones, with Jones catching a touchdown pass. Jones left the game with a knee injury – as he missed time earlier this year with a knee injury. Jones plays such a critical role in the red zone for the Jaguars.

I’ve done my best to approach the Jags WR room with buy/low tips, and buying on Ridley last week paid off. Colts up next is a GREAT spot for him.

Selling Kirk…did not. But again, I did not anticipate Jones getting re-injured.

Either way, I think the move with this roster is to just buy any asset after a bad game and sell high after a strong game. In this case, it’s Evan Engram as the buy target. Still saw 8 targets but just 4 for 28.

Jaguars take on Colts, Saints and Steelers over the next three games.

Roschon Johnson (RB – CHI)

Khalil Herbert dominated the snaps with a 66% snap share, then followed by fullback Khari Blasingame, then third in the pecking order was rookie Roschon Johnson after he was ruled out with a concussion.

Herbert has been the No. 1 guy for two straight games and totaled 10 carries for 76 yards versus the Commanders, while seeing three targets.

With the Bears offense playing much better, I’d expect them to continue feeding Herbert as RB1. But that will no longer be the case in the short term with Herbert slated to miss multiple weeks with an ankle injury.

As for Blasingame working ahead of RJ – it’s mostly just related to the injury. RJ totaled 3 carries for 19 yards but was not targeted (6 snaps, 9% snap share). Unsure if he will be ready by Week 6, but he’s going to start if he’s healthy. Also be sure to add D’Onta Foreman, who the Bears signed this offseason. He has been inactive most of the year, but likely be in the starting lineup in Week 6 and beyond with Herbert out.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba (WR – SEA)

One would figure we get an expanded role for Jaxon Smith-Njigba post the bye week. Because through four weeks, Lockett has done pretty much nothing outside of two TDs in Week 2. JSN’s routes increased in Week 4 (75% route participation) versus Weeks 1-3 (63%). He also tied Lockett for the team-lead Iin targets (6).

Look for JSN to hit waivers after a slow start to his rookie year with Seattle coming off a bye. Take advantage and stash him. Could easily be a league-winner down the stretch.
