Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Jonathan Taylor (RB – IND)

Jonathan Taylor powered the Colts’ ground game, amassing 105 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries, averaging 5.3 yards per carry with a longest run of 28 yards.

Snap counts: Jonathan Taylor: 81%, Trey Sermon: 16%, Tyler Goodson: 3%

Per the FantasyPros SOS tool, the Colts have the last-ranked schedule for running backs. You can get a lot for JT in trades.

Kareem Hunt (RB – KC)

Running back Kareem Hunt led the Chiefs’ rushing attack with 21 carries for 59 yards, including a touchdown, though he averaged only 2.8 yards per carry. Carson Steele chipped in with 6 yards on 2 carries.

Hunt saw six red-zone carries and scored one rushing touchdown, along with one target and no receiving touchdowns.

Snap counts: Kareem Hunt: 58%, Samaje Perine: 31%, Carson Steele: 11%
Hunt has been crushing, but Isiah Pacheco‘s eventual return creates some ambiguity about how useful Hunt will be in crunch time during the fantasy football playoffs. Don’t hold onto Hunt too tight before he loses value.

Jalen McMillan (WR – TB)

Jalen McMillan, Trey Palmer (two targets), and Sterling Shepard (five targets) were also effective, with Palmer averaging 14.5 yards per reception on 2 catches.

McMillan led the WRs with eight targets catching four for 35 yards. McMillan ran a route on 86% of dropbacks – also led the team. McMillan received one red zone target and did not score. McMillan commanded a 15.22% target share and contributed 95 air yards, making up 31.15% of the team’s air yards. McMillan had all the usage you could ask for in his first game sans Godwin and Mike Evans. Don’t be frustrated and drop him. Mayfield missed him on a deep pattern that could have been a touchdown. McMillan has nearly 200 air yards the last two weeks.
