Dynasty Trade Targets: Theo Johnson & Michael Mayer (Fantasy Football)

The entire NFL world will be focused non-stop on Super Bowl LIX for the next two weeks the fantasy football community has turned their attention to the offseason. Dynasty fantasy players should spend this part of the offseason looking for bargains on the trade block.

Let’s look at my favorite deep league dynasty trade targets.

Deep League Dynasty Trade Targets

Theo Johnson (TE – NYG)

While everyone should be excited about Malik Nabers’ fantasy outlook for next year, let’s not forget about the Giants’ other rookies. Johnson missed the final five games with a season-ending foot injury that required surgery. However, the former Penn State star was playing well before suffering the foot injury. He averaged 5.8 targets and 7.9 half-point PPR fantasy points per game over his final four contests. Unless New York drafts Tyler Warren or Colston Loveland, Johnson should be the clear-cut starting tight end with a new quarterback under center.

Michael Mayer (TE – LV)

Unfortunately, Mayer’s fantasy outlook got squashed after the Raiders drafted Brock Bowers. While he struggled to have a consistent role behind the superstar rookie, Mayer shined when given a chance. The second-year pro had seven receptions on nine targets for 68 receiving yards and 10.3 half-point PPR fantasy points in Week 14 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, his only game with more than four targets this season. Hopefully, Mayer earns a more consistent role under Pete Carroll or gets traded with the tight end free agency class being awful.
