Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Derrick Henry (RB – TEN)

Derrick Henry carried the ball 13 times for 43 yards, averaging 3.3 yards per carry. Although he didn’t find the end zone, his rushing efforts contributed to ball control. He also tried to throw another TD pass, but it was just out of bounds.

Tyjae Spears showcased his versatility with 7 carries for 34 yards, averaging an impressive 4.9 yards per carry. He also scored a rushing touchdown on a cool end round designed run, displaying his ability to finish drives. Spears contributed with 4 receptions for 35 yards (5 targets), demonstrating his ability to make short and intermediate catches to move the chains. Henry also caught 3 balls on 3 targets.

Spears – per usual – also ran more routes. Both RBs also played more than 50% of the snaps

Henry’s upside continues to be limited with Spears in the fold. Sell the Big Dog.

Kyren Williams (RB – LAR)

Kyren Williams maintained RB1 status, out-touching Ronnie Rivers 15 to 1. Williams just didn’t score. Still very strong 84% snap share. Would expect him to be in a solid bounce back spot next week. Probably a decent buy-low candidate. Just don’t overpay as he was someone I have voiced “selling” in past articles.

No. 1… not sure how good he actually is. Second worst in the NFL in rushing yards below expectation.

And I am somewhat concerned about the return of Kupp drastically altering his TD and receiving upside. Williams tied a season-low in targets with Kupp back. After scoring 6 TDs the first four weeks, he did not find the end zone in Week 5.

Just make sure you keep Rivers stashed because I feel confident he could seamlessly replace Williams’ production with the same role.

The Cardinals and Steelers are the Rams’ next 2 opponents. Think I might use that as leverage to move off Kyren to somebody who thinks he is the exact same guy to start the year. I’m less bullish, that’s the case.

George Kittle (TE – SF)

Every week, it’s somebody else. George Kittle week came on Sunday night to the tune of 3 catches for 67 yards on 4 targets (3 TDs). But don’t get it lost that Brandon Aiyuk was No. 1 WR with a dominant 28% Target share (7 targets) and 49% air yards share (104 air yards).

He caught four balls for 58 yards. Tied Kittle for the team-lead in routes run.

So, what do you do when a 49er goes off? You. Sell. High.

Terry McLaurin (WR – WAS)

Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson each only saw 5 targets. Not great. Hope you were able to ship off McLaurin before Thursday night.

Through five weeks – McLaurin/Dotson are tied with a 17% team Target share. Woof. Dotson can be dropped because his role is maxed out and I don’t envision his targets increasing too drastically. He has just been super inefficient ranking 8th-worst in yards per route this season.
