Fantasy Football Trade Advice: Players to Buy

Devin Singletary (RB – BUF)

So much for James Cook playing a massive role in the Bills’ passing game. The second-round rookie running back fumbled on his first touch and was basically ever heard from again in Week 1. It makes sense that Moss’ increase in the receiving game could have been Cook’s had he not put the ball on the ground. A lack of ball security put Devin Singletary in the doghouse during the first half of last season; his two teammates both fumbling are a definite benefit to Motor Singletary maintaining the RB1 role on offense.

So even though Singletary was out-targeted by Moss, he ran a higher percentage of routes per dropback (47% vs 37%) and played a higher snap rate (59% vs 37%). It is slightly concerning that Moss did earn the lone red-zone carry among the Bills RBs, but Singletary did have a red-zone target for eight receiving yards.

Rhamondre Stevenson (RB – NE)

Rhamondre Stevenson was buried on the Week 1 depth chart, playing just 25% of the snaps. However, he saw just one fewer touch than Damien Harris and looked explosive with the ball in his hands. With little to no playmakers in the Pats offense, I’d anticipate Stevenson’s role to just increase with nobody else worthy of seeing more volume.

Brandon Aiyuk (WR – SF)

With Elijah Mitchell sidelined early on with an injury, the 49ers were forced to turn Deebo Samuel back into RB1. And as a result, Brandon Aiyuk ascended to WR1 based on his 99% snap rate. I’d buy low with better weather conditions ahead in the future, even after Aiyuk saw little production in Week 1.
