Fantasy Football Trade Advice
In the rushing game, Tank Bigsby was the primary workhorse, rushing 18 times for 78 yards, averaging 4.3 yards per carry with a long of 16 yards. Lawrence also contributed on the ground, rushing 4 times for 10 yards and a touchdown.
Bigsby went for two catches on eight yards and three targets. Out-targeted D’Ernest Johnson.
Snap counts: Tank Bigsby: 67%, D’Ernest Johnson: 33%
Bigsby’s more involved role is a receiver was nice to see, with Jags-Packers a relatively close contest. But I still have long-term concerns about his role when Travis Etienne returns. I still have hesitation about what happens if the Jaguars are forced to play from behind in future weeks.
The upcoming schedule: @ PHI, vs. MIN, and @ DET before a Week 12 bye week.
After Week 12, Jacksonville finishes the season against HOU, @ TEN, vs. NYJ, @ LV, @ TEN, and @ IND. Per the FantasyPros SOS tool, the Jaguars are tied for the No.32-ranked schedule for quarterbacks. Per the FantasyPros SOS tool, they also have the third worst-ranked schedule for running backs.
Rachaad White and Bucky Irving led the ground game, with Irving carrying the ball 9 times for 44 yards, averaging 4.9 yards per carry, and White adding 29 yards on six attempts with a 4.8-yard average. White did lose a fumble early in the game.
Mayfield himself chipped in with 11 rushing yards on 3 carries, while Sean Tucker and Jalen McMillan contributed a few more yards on limited touches.
White and Irving split carries 50/50 in the first half, although White had zero carries in the second half of the contest. White had one red-zone carry and one target, converting the target into a touchdown. Bucky Irving had one red-zone carry but did not score or receive targets.
Snap counts: Rachaad White: 56%, Bucky Irving: 42%, Sean Tucker: 10%
According to Next Gen Stats, Irving totaled 84 yards on 16 touches in Week 8 against the Falcons, forcing a career-high 9 missed tackles.
Irving has now recorded a missed tackle forced rate of 40.6% this season. Irving also found majority of his success through the air on Sunday, setting career-highs in targets (7), receptions (70), and yards after the catch (60).
Simply put, he’s the best running back on the Buccaneers. Not White. After White scored again, you best be selling high. Tampa will play the Chiefs and 49ers before their bye week.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba was the primary target in the passing game, catching 6 of 7 targets for 69 yards, averaging 11.5 yards per reception with a longest catch of 18 yards and 37 yards after the catch. Smith-Njigba received one red zone target but did not score.
Smith-Njigba led the Seahawks with a 25.93% target share and accumulated 49 air yards, accounting for 60.49%. If this is the ceiling case for JSN without Metcalf, I’m trading him away. He has one top-24 finish this season.
Metcalf seemed close to playing in Week 8 so I’d expect him to return baring any type of setback. He is the engine to the Seattle passing game. Buy low before they play the Rams in Week 9. But it has to be a great price.
Because the playoff schedule isn’t ideal. Something to keep in mind when potentially trading Seahawks away as the season progresses.
Per the FantasyPros SOS tool, the Seahawks are tied for the No.32-ranked schedule for quarterbacks. Post Bye Week: @ SF, vs ARI, @ NYJ, @ ARI, vs GB, vs MIN and @ CHI.
