Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Breece Hall (RB – NYJ)

Breece Hall led the ground game with 14 carries for 62 yards (4.4 YPC), including a long run of 30 yards. He was held to just nine rushing yards in the first half.

Rookie Braelon Allen followed with seven carries for 33 yards (4.7 YPC), with a long of 20 yards and a rushing TD. They took Hall out after he caught a pass in the red zone and Allen scored on the next red-zone attempt. Breece Hall also saw significant action in the passing game, with eight targets (27%), catching seven passes for 52 yards and a GREAT touchdown. 38% target rate per route run. Braelon Allen contributed four targets (13.3%), catching two passes for 23 yards and 1 TD, adding 24 YAC. Both Allen’s scores came inside the red zone. Note that on Allen’s TD reception BOTH he and Hall were in the backfield. It was a fake to Hall that the defense bit HARD on to open up a wide-open TD grab for Allen. The snaps were 72% for Hall and 35% for Allen. Hall was at an 82% snap rate in Week 1. I guarantee people are freaking out about Allen’s TDs as “hurting” Hall. Note that Hall was in a 50/50 committee for nearly half the season last year and finished as the RB2 in PPR. Buy. The Patriots are next on Thursday night.

Ja’Marr Chase (WR – CIN)

Ja’Marr Chase caught 4 of 5 targets (13.9% target share) for 35 yards, including 19 YAC. The Chiefs force offenses to look elsewhere than their primary weapons. Chase was horrible the first two weeks of the 2023 season. Rinse and repeat, folks. With the Washington Commanders on deck, I cannot think of another bigger blow-up spot in fantasy football than Chase versus this atrocious Commanders secondary.

De’Von Achane (RB – MIA)

Per Next Gen Stats, De’Von Achane led the Dolphins in both rushing (96 yards on 22 carries) and receiving (69 yards and a TD on seven receptions), while also forcing nine missed tackles across 29 total touches. He played 62% of the snaps and earned four red-zone carries.

Achane had never had more than 22 touches in a game in his career. Achane was more efficient as a receiver (+25 receiving yards over expected) than he was as a rusher (-26 rushing yards over expected). The Dolphins’ lone touchdown on the night came on an Achane 5-yard flat route late in the first quarter.

De’Von Achane‘s role in the underneath passing game makes me less concerned about him in the long term. If anything, I’d look to buy him LOW. Miami could lean more on the run game with a downgrade at quarterback.
