Fantasy Football Trade Advice

David Montgomery (RB – DET)

David Montgomery is my favorite Buy-low target. Montgomery is the borderline RB1 that nobody bothers to target because he has the younger and more enticing running back in the backfield with him. Through four games this season, Montgomery has at least 18 fantasy points in each. A running back who will quietly put up 18 points per game week in and week out is a rare commodity, so I don’t care if Jahmyr Gibbs has more upside. Montgomery has been between 18 and 24 fantasy points and currently ranks as RB16 on the year, while Gibbs has scored between 18 and 22 points per game and sits as RB14. Gibbs may be two spots higher in scoring, but at a quarter of the cost, I will target Montgomery all day long. I would be willing to trade away James Conner, Ken Walker, Travis Etienne, and Josh Jacobs straight up to acquire Montgomery, and believe he is the most underrated running back in fantasy football.”

Rhamondre Stevenson (RB – NE)

“I realize he might be some people’s favorite “sell-high” candidate, but I’m looking to trade for Rhamondre Stevenson, provided the cost is reasonable. In half-PPR leagues, the 26-year-old has finished as a top-10 fantasy back in three of his five games. Sure, they came in above-average matchups, but seven of his last 11 games are against teams that are bottom-10 in fantasy points allowed to the position. There’s also this — among 35 runners with at least 40 carries, Rhamondre ranks seventh in yards after contact per attempt. And while he does play on a bad offense, only five running backs have garnered more red zone opportunities (carries + targets). I’d dangle players like Travis EtienneNick ChubbChuba HubbardZack MossZay FlowersChris Olave, JSN, and Michael Pittman and see if I can get a bite.”

Nico Collins (WR – HOU)

“This has nothing to do with performance and everything to do with opportunity. Nico Collins, who has been one of the best players in fantasy this year, is set to miss a few weeks with a hamstring injury. If any of his managers are struggling, go to them immediately. Collins will not be much help to them in their own quest to stay afloat, presenting a great opportunity to buy for teams sitting at 5-0 or 4-1. Zay FlowersTee Higgins, and even Jayden Reed could all be part of packages to convince the Collins manager to sell if that manager needs the pieces to get by.”
