Fantasy Football Trade Advice
The Bears will be on a Week 7 bye. After that, they will play the Commanders, Cardinals, Patriots, and Packers after the bye week. A solid string of matchups for the Bears offense.
In the macro, you probably want to hold onto your Bears players given the soft matchups upcoming. They have improved dramatically offensively, with Williams hitting his stride. They are also on a bye week, so most managers won’t give you much if you are selling. Therefore, the move is to buy Rome Odunze. We see rookies often take a massive step forward in the second halves of season, especially after the bye week.
The rest of the receiving corps struggled to make a significant impact. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught one of his two targets for a nine-yard TD, while Calvin Ridley was targeted eight times but managed zero receptions. Ridley had 133 air yards, a 54% air yard share, and a 30% target share. And he scored zero fantasy points as a receiver. He went OFF after the game based on his lack of early-game usage. I thought last week was the squeaky wheel game. This week I’m expecting even more noise from the Ridley wheel.
In the run game, Javonte Williams led the backfield with six carries for 23 yards, averaging 3.8 yards per carry. Audric Estime contributed 13 yards on two carries, including an 11-yard run, while Jaleel McLaughlin added 8 yards on three carries. Williams also lost a fumble. Snaps: Javonte Williams: 67%, Jaleel McLaughlin: 25%, Audric Estime: 4%
McLaughlin and Williams also got involved in the passing game, with McLaughlin catching two passes for 17 yards and Williams recording three receptions for 13 yards on six targets. Denver will play the Saints reeling defense and Panthers in their next two games. Two absolute smash spots for the Broncos running backs to get going. But after Williams struggled again and turned the ball over…we could see this backfield shift. After the game head coach Sean Payton said he wanted to see more of the rookies. Per the Thednvr.com, Payton said,” We are a young team. I want to see this runner as well. I want to see [Audric] Estime,” Payton said, when asked about the young talent on offense. “We are going to see [Devaughn] Vele and we are going to see [Troy] Franklin. We are not waiting to redshirt these guys. We will continue to see each week their involvement in the plan and how they fit. That is how you get confidence and get experience.”
I wanted to believe that Williams was turning the corner after two strong weeks, but it might just be over for him. He’s not a Payton guy, and he’s hardly given a great case for keeping him on the field. Cash out now, and make sure McLaughlin/Estime aren’t available on waivers.
