The key to winning dynasty fantasy football deals is to trade for someone when their value is relatively low and send them away when their value is near or at its apex. With the league’s roster situation still in flux, you have the added dynamic of making speculative moves based on what you think might happen, which adds another fun layer of complexity.
That said, it can be tough to decide who you’re targeting and selling, considering the generally uncertain state of each team and player’s situation right now. Fortunately, our featured analysts have come to offer their suggestions on which trade candidates you’d be wise to sell in dynasty fantasy football leagues.

Dynasty Fantasy Football
Rachaad White (RB – TB)
“Rachaad White was a top-10 running back last season because of volume, not his talents. He finished second in rushing attempts (272) but 14th in yards (990). Furthermore, White ranked 89th in yards after contact per attempt, 84th in missed tackles forced per attempt, and 76th in explosive run rate in 2023 (per Fantasy Points Data). While the former Arizona State star should have a featured role again this upcoming season, don’t expect that to be the case in 2025. I would trade White for Jonathon Brooks or a first-round rookie pick without thinking twice. ”

Jayden Reed (WR – GB)
“Shopping Jayden Reed while his value is high might not be a bad idea. Reed was a pleasant surprise as a rookie, finishing with 64 catches for 793 yards and eight TDs, plus 119 rushing yards and two TD runs. But Reed had a snap share of 70% or higher in only two of the 18 games he played last year (playoffs included), and he didn’t play 70% of the offensive snaps in any of the eight games Christian Watson missed. Reed will rarely be on the field when the Packers are in two-receiver sets this year. Reed scored 10 touchdowns last season on 75 touches, meaning 13.3% of his touches resulted in a TD — a number that’s bound to regress. As good as Reed is, I like the idea of trading him while interest in him is so high. I’d be willing to take a 2025 first-round rookie pick for Reed, or a veteran such as Mark Andrews or Isiah Pacheco.”

Brandon Aiyuk (WR – SF)
“In 2023, Brandon Aiyuk managed only four top-twenty weekly finishes, was held below 80 receiving yards on eight occasions, didn’t score touchdowns in 60% of his games, and finished as WR30 or worse on six occasions. Nothing has changed for Aiyuk, but he’s priced up as a true elite player. If I can get the 1.04-1.06 in Superflex leagues, I’d take that in a heartbeat. ”
– Tom Strachan (NFL Best Ball)
Jonathan Taylor (RB – IND)
“Whether I’m contending or rebuilding, I’m still trying to sell Jonathan Taylor. He’s currently ranked as RB5 in Dynasty ECR, and I would rather trade down for multiple RBs on their way up. Maybe I can move him for Devin Achane and Isaih Pacheco or something similar. A lot of dynasty managers are pretty sharp, so that might be asking a little much, but I’m gonna ask for the world and be willing to entertain counters.”
