Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Tank Bigsby (RB – JAC)

“Tank Bigsby is a great candidate to sell high. Yes, he is leading the charge in Jacksonville right now, but we also know Travis Etienne is dealing with a shoulder injury. Has that been affecting Etienne’s game? Bigsby has been very efficient with his opportunities, which means his market should be high. We just saw the New York Jets fire their head coach, and it is possible that Jacksonville’s coach is on the hot seat to be the next. If a new regime is called upon, does the offense still run through Bigsby, or do they take a new approach? There are some unknowns about Jacksonville’s future, which scares me for every player outside of Brian Thomas Jr. Sell Bigsby while he is being efficient for Josh Jacobs, or if you can add a 2nd with Bigsby and try to get Breece Hall, who has been struggling I would.”

Christian Kirk (WR – JAC)

“Christian Kirk and the Jacksonville Jaguars took advantage of a soft matchup. Kirk had a season-high in fantasy points despite only playing on 53% of snaps. Travis Etienne has been somewhat limited with a shoulder injury, and Evan Engram hasn’t played since Week 1. He is not on the field in two wide receiver sets, and Brian Thomas has emerged as the #1 target. Evan Engram will jump Kirk in targets, and you should sell. Package Kirk with another player like Rhamondre Stevenson to upgrade to a Brian Robinson, Aaron Jones, or Josh Jacobs.”

D’Andre Swift (RB – CHI)

“Within the next 3-4 weeks, it would probably be wise to maximize D’Andre Swift’s rising value. The 25-year-old has carved up the bottom-feeder defenses of the Rams and Panthers over the last two weeks. His schedule will remain favorable through Week 11, but then he finishes the season with four matchups versus top-three run defenses in his final six games. Among the 28 backs with at least 50 carries this season, only Zack Moss is averaging fewer yards after contact per attempt. There’s also the fact that he somehow has -7 yards on five carries inside the five-yard line, and Roschon Johnson appears to be earning the goal-line role. In trades for Swift, I’d aim for players like Joe Mixon, James Conner, De’Von Achane, Tony Pollard, Jayden Reed, Drake London, Chris Godwin, Cooper Kupp, D.J. Moore, Brian Thomas Jr., Terry McLaurin, George Kittle, Brock Bowers, and Travis Kelce.”
– Elisha Twerski (USA Today)

“Sell high on D’Andre Swift. Over the first three games of the season, Swift was non-existent in fantasy lineups and looked to be droppable. In Weeks 4 and 5, however, he posted monster performances and has climbed to RB17 overall. Swift has carried the ball 17 and 21 times over the past two games, and not only is this unlikely to continue with a fully healthy offense, but it’s completely unsustainable for him health-wise. He has never been able to hold up to a heavy workload on the ground, and I don’t expect him to do so in this case. The Bears are going to get healthy, and sooner or later, an injury to Swift is inevitable, so cash out now and sell high while you still can. I would be willing to trade Swift away for Brian Robinson Jr., Chase Brown, Bucky Irving, and Tony Pollard.”
