Rome Odunze, the promising Bears wide receiver, may not yet be lighting up the scoreboard, but his situation could soon change dramatically. With an impressive snap count and the potential to rise alongside a future star like Caleb Williams, now is the time to invest in Odunze before his value skyrockets. Selling a running back in a situation like Tank Bigsby is always the optimal move. Sit tight on Jayden Reed and enjoy the spike weeks that are to come. Let’s go over this week’s dynasty trade advice more in depth.

Dynasty Trade Advice: Week 9
Buy: Rome Odunze (WR – Bears)
Since Rome Odunze’s 23-point explosive in Week 3, he has put up a combined 25.4 PPR points across the four games since. He has played an average of 78% of the snaps in those games. He’s on the field but he’s not producing anything that makes you feel confident to put him in your lineup every week. The situation he is in being tied to Caleb Williams and behind an aging Keenan Allen will keep his value insulated due to his situation projecting to get better down the line.
Looking at Dynasty-Daddy’s trade database, Odunze has been involved in these trades over the past two days in 12-team Superflex leagues:
- Rashod Bateman and a 2026 first-round pick
- DJ Moore and a 2026 third-round pick
- Ricky Pearsall
- Odunze and 2025 first-round pick for Amari Cooper and DK Metcalf
I would love to do every single one of these deals to acquire Odunze. Selling high on Rashod Bateman and Ricky Pearsall is very ideal before their value descends with not-so-good performances. You would take a hit in points pivoting from DJ Moore to Oduze but gain the higher-valued dynasty asset. I view Odunze and DK Metcalf in the same range and would smash accept a 2025 first-round pick for Cooper. If you want to keep it simple, try moving a mid-to-late 2025 first-round pick while being flexible with adding a little more to get the deal done. Use our dynasty trade calculator to compare values.
Sell: Tank Bigsby (RB – Jaguars)
Tank Bigsby has played well spelling Travis Etienne and even better in his absence. In the last two games without Etienne, he has finished as the RB5 and RB28. Etienne is dealing with a hamstring injury and we’ve seen how these types of injuries can linger throughout the season giving Bigsby weekly Flex appeal in fantasy start sit decisions.
Looking at Dynasty-Daddy’s trade database, Bigsby has been involved in these trades over the past two days in 12-team Superflex leagues:
- 2025 second-round pick
- Bigsby and Keaton Mitchell for Tee Higgins
- Bigsby and a 2026 second-round pick for Tua Tagovailoa
- Bigsby and a 2025 second-round pick for Trevor Lawrence
- Bigsby and a 2026 second-round pick for a 2025 first-round pick
There will be other running backs that gain unexpected opportunities, so I am selling him now so I can get a decent bang for my buck. A 2025 or 2026 second-round pick is an ideal return. However, if you can pair him with a pick to move into the first round or acquire a useful player at a different position for your team you should go for it now.
Hold: Jayden Reed (WR – Packers)
These past two weeks have been two of the three worst fantasy weeks for Jayden Reed this season. You just have to take the bad weeks with the spike weeks to reach the benefit of having him on your roster. Whether I’m contending or rebuilding, Reed is a player I want on my team moving forward. I see no reason to move off of him outside of getting an offer that blows your socks off.
