Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Kareem Hunt (RB – CLE)

Jerome Ford led the ground game with 17 carries for 107 yards, averaging an impressive 6.3 yards per carry with his longest run being 28 yards. He earned 64% of the snaps. It was the first time Ford was efficient although it was somewhat bloated by a 28-yard run.

Quarterback Deshaun Watson contributed 37 yards on 8 carries, while Kareem Hunt added 32 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries (2 red-zone carries). Hunt played 36% of the snaps.

Ford, in addition to his rushing duties, caught one pass for 2 yards. Wouldn’t expect such a low number when he ran a route on 59% of dropbacks. Hunt had zero targets (1 negated by penalty).
Ford remains the back to own in Cleveland, while Hunt is super TD dependent.

Considering touches/targets/snaps are more predictable and sticky week over week, I’d likely be a buyer/holder of Ford while looking to sell HIGH on Hunt and his recent TD production of 6 scores in the last five games. Ford looks underpriced on DK at just $5,200.

Tyler Lockett (WR – SEA)

Tyler Lockett saw 7 of his 8 targets (32%) in the first half but was not efficient, 3 for 32. Lockett’s getting a solid target share but his efficiency marks are showing signs of decline.

Chuba Hubbard (RB – CAR)

Chuba Hubbard led the rushing attempts with 9 carries for 23 yards, averaging a horrible 2.6 yards per attempt while playing 50% of the snaps. Miles Sanders (38% snap share) and Raheem Blackshear (12% snap share) also participated in the ground game, turning this backfield into an utter disaster. Sanders had 2 carries for -5 yards, while Blackshear went 2 for 7. Woof. They combined for 5 targets altogether, while Sanders ran the most routes.

The Panthers were constantly rotating their running backs seemingly between every snap. Double Woof.

The Panthers also have a bottom-6 schedule ranking for the rest of the season for fantasy RBs. Get out of this backfield.

Devin Singletary (RB – HOU)

Devin Singletary led the rushing attack with 30 (checks notes, twice, three times) carries for 150 yards, averaging 5.0 yards per carry and scoring a touchdown on one of his 3 red-zone rushes. His longest run was 22 yards. No other RB had a carry. Added 2 targets. Mike Boone commanded 3 targets. Let’s just say, I hope you didn’t drop him after a lackluster Week 9.

Dameon Pierce season might be over before Week 11. But that’s no reason you cannot take advantage and look to flip Singletary off a career game. There’s a non-zero chance that this backfield turns more into a split when Pierce returns. Not like Singletary has a long track record of maintaining workhorse status as a team’s RB1.

Regardless, he will be stone-cold chalk at $5,300 on DraftKings versus Arizona if Pierce misses another game.
