Fantasy Football Trade Advice
Players to Buy
Christian McCaffrey (RB – CAR)
CMC’s receiving usage rolled over from last week. 12 targets – 30% target share – in Week 5 while adding 14 carries for 54 yards and 1 TD. McCaffrey’s 86% snap share and 93% opportunity share are elite usage numbers. The uptick in receiving the past two weeks is extremely encouraging for the Carolina running back as the lone bright spot in this overall anemic offense. He’s gone over 100 yards or scored a TD in every single game this season.
Chase saw 3 red-zone targets and ran a route on 100% of Joe Burrow‘s dropbacks on Sunday night football. He also earned a 35% target share with Tee Higgins sidelined early on with an injury. Buy low after he posted just 50 receiving yards despite the high-end usage.
Buy low on A.J. Brown. He was heavily targeted to start the game – 3 catches for 32 yards on the 1st drive – but didn’t catch a pass after that. But even so, AJB still had more air yards than DeVonta Smith and came up empty-handed on his two red-zone targets.
