Fantasy Football Trade Advice
Players to Buy
Time to buy low on Joe Mixon. He only had 8 carries in this game, his lowest output of the season. Just 13 touches overall. Still a 76% opportunity share. Even though the fact that this massive Bengals victory came at the expense of Mixon’s volume, I don’t think that spells doom The team shifted to more shotgun and that led to a high-octane passing attack. But Mixon’s efficiency on the ground increased – 5.6 yards per attempt the last two weeks – while he maintained a role in the passing game (4 targets per game).
And quarterback Joe Burrow himself said that the team found its identity in their road win, which foreshadows a more efficient Mixon ROS. If you can get someone who is only concerned about Mixon’s carry total, I’d be a buyer. A solid schedule is approaching – Atlanta, Cleveland, and Carolina.
Alvin Kamara posted 99 rushing yards on 19 carries with six catches on 9 targets with 25 yards to boot. But no scores for AK41. However, he was targeted 4 times in the red zone. With his usage super encouraging over the last two weeks, it’s just a matter of time till Kamara pops off a multi-TD game. Buy.
Amon-Ra St. Brown was on a pitch count (32% snap share) which resulted in just four catches for 18 yards in 6 targets in Week 5. Josh Reynolds took advantage, commanding 10 targets, six catches, and 92 receiving yards while playing all the snaps. But it shouldn’t be ignored that when ASB was running routes, Jared Goff was peppering his No. 1 wideout. 38% target rate per route run, 6% percentage points higher than his target rate entering Week 5 (32%). Buy him while he’s coming off the bye week. He’ll be healthy and help you toward your playoff run.
Chris Godwin led the Buccaneers in targets (12, 32% target share) going for 95 yards. It was definitely encouraging to see his snap share rise (89%) and route participation (93%) rise after he basically sat out the second half of Week 5. Mike Evans with just 4-42 on 4 targets. He was targeted on just 10% of his routes. It’s a reminder that Evans isn’t a target hog like Godwin, and thrives off TDs scores for his fantasy production.
Tee Higgins saw 10 targets in Week 6 (6-for-47) despite being limited all week with an ankle injury. The results were not great, but his 90% route participation indicates he is healthy. Buy.
Drake London managers are no doubt frustrated but you need to separate the player from the situation. If the Falcons have their way against a beatable run defense, London won’t be used. But if they have to throw, he is going to feast. He ran a route on 100% of dropbacks in Week 6 and owns a 33% target share this season. As 6-point road dogs versus the Bengals in Week 7, London could be squarely in for a major bounce-back effort. Buy low.
Travis Etienne Jr. (10 for 86) and James Robinson (12 for 54) split carries, but ETN was more efficient, saw more targets (2 vs 1), played more snaps, and ran more routes. As the second-year back continues to see more playing time and look explosive with the ball in his hands, the breakout game is impending. Buy low now while you still can. He is currently PFF’s 5th-highest graded rusher this season.
Lamar Jackson posted his 3rd straight poor game passing (almost all without Rashod Bateman, still had 7-77-0 rushing). I’d buy low with Bateman making his potential return vs a Browns defense that just got shredded by Bailey Zappe.
Devin Singletary is the league’s most underrated bell cow. 17 carries for 85 yards and four catches for 22 yards on 5 targets. 86% snap share and 67% route participation. Zack Moss was inactive and James Cook had 2 carries. Buy him.
Terry McLaurin finished with just 3 catches for 41 yards on 4 targets in Week 6, trailing Curtis Samuel (again) who led the team with 5 targets (22% target share). It was an overall disappointing effort from Washington’s passing attack as Carson Wentz attempted just 22 passes and threw for only 99 passing yards. Samuel is a buy-low after a poor game because it should have been much better. He dropped a long TD and was targeted twice in the red zone. Taylor Heinicke is also expected to take over for an injured Carson Wentz, and his lack of deep ball accuracy plays in the strengths of Samuel as a low-aDOT receiver.
Allen Lazard (4-76-1, 9 targets) and Romeo Doubs (4-21-0, 9 targets) were heavily involved after Randall Cobb was carted off the field with an ankle injury. Both Lazard and Doubs ran a route on 96% of dropbacks, but the former continues to be the favorite in the red zone. Lazard also saw 162 air yards to Doubs’ 113 air yards. However, Doubs is a buy-low based on his usage and matchup in Week 7. Washington Commanders. WRs that saw multiple deep targets in Week 6 that failed to haul them include Ja’Marr Chase, Marquez Callaway, Tyler Lockett, Romeo Doubs, and Devin Duvernay.
Rondale Moore commanded 10 targets (28% target share) in Week 6 for 6 catches and 49 yards, while running a route on 98% of Kyler Murray‘s dropbacks. His usage has been top notch and the production should continue with Marquise Brown potentially out on Thursday night. Also, I think Moore is still a buy candidate with the team trading for Robbie Anderson. Anderson won’t interfere with Moore’s role in the slot.
Players like Michael Gallup are the reason why air yards exist. The Cowboys WR posted a team-high 33% air yards share (nearly 100 air yards) share in Week 6, but he caught just two passes on 7 targets. With Prescott back and the Lions up next…Gallup is due to blow up. Trade for him on the cheap.
