Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Davante Adams (WR – NYJ)

Garrett Wilson caught five of his nine targets for 61 yards, averaging 12.2 yards per catch with a long of 27 yards and 39 YAC. 97 air yards, 47.78% air yards share, 23.08% target share. Wilson ran a route on 100% of dropbacks.

Allen Lazard had a perfect catch rate, snagging all four of his targets for 58 yards, averaging 14.5 yards per catch, with a long of 20 yards. Lazard ran a route on 62.5% of dropbacks (season-low).

Davante Adams caught three of his nine targets for 30 yards, averaging 10 yards per catch. Adams saw 1 red zone target but didn’t catch it. 45 air yards, 22.17% air yards share, 23.08% target share. Adams ran a route on 97.5% of dropbacks.

Adams’ Jets debut left a lot to be desired, but he got dropped into the Jets WR1 role from the get-go. Saw a strong target share and was involved heavily in the first half gameplan. He and Wilson split snaps from the slot, suggesting that each will get favorable mismatches moving forward. Given the Jets schedule you need to be over buying BOTH Jets WRs given how their prices have suppressed since Sunday night football. At least kick the tires on both of them. Remember, Jets get the Rams and Jaguars in the first two weeks of the fantasy football playoffs.

Chris Olave (WR – NO)

Chris Olave should also return after he missed Week 7 with a concussion. Recall that Rashid Shaheed was placed on IR, opening the target floodgates for Olave to feast. Buy low with Olave’s out of sight out of mind status.

Tank Dell (WR – HOU)

Dare Ogunbowale and Tank Dell were targeted but did not record any receptions. Dell saw a total of six targets including penalties, but goose egged. Woof. Dell saw two red zone targets but failed to convert either into a catch. 45 air yards, 32.85% air yards share, 21.05% target share. Buy low. The Texans take on the Colts, Jets, and Lions in their next three games. Then it’s the Cowboys, Titans and Jaguars before their bye week. They open the fantasy football playoffs against the Dolphins, Chiefs and Ravens.
