If you’re not active in trades in your dynasty league, then your team will suffer because of it. Now is a great time to go shopping for some thrift store-quality steals in your league. It’s also a great time to try to sell high ahead of the new season. In terms of dynasty, selling high means you trade away a player away before their value goes down. It’s all the risk and speculation of the stock market with all the fun of gambling. Here are some players to trade now. And here are more players to buy and sell.

Fantasy Football Players to Trade
Josh Allen (QB – BUF)
I can already read the replies: “Sell Josh Allen, are you crazy?!” I mean, maybe, but hear me out. Allen is a terrific quarterback and easily a top-three asset in Superflex leagues. I’m not hating the player, just the price. The Bills look weak at running back, with just Cook and Harris as the likely starting duo, and weak at WR2 with Gabe Davis behind Diggs. Spoiler, there are other Bills in this list, so you’ve been warned if you’re part of the Bills Mafia.
Back to Allen for a moment. He’s got some outstanding value right now, and that’s what I like about him most. If you can pivot down to multiple ascending assets, then you’d be crazy not to entertain a trade. As I’ve said before, don’t trade him just to trade him, but instead, ask for a king’s ransom. Target a team that’s one QB away from a title with a lot of value on their bench. If you can get a solid young QB, a starting RB and a starting WR in return for Allen, that might be worth it. Send out some massive offers and see how it goes. You might be thanking me in a few weeks.
Travis Etienne (RB – JAX)
It feels like the fantasy community as a whole has been somewhat out on Etienne ever since the team drafted Tank Bigsby in April. I get it, but there are other concerns for me. The biggest is Etienne’s price: expert consensus ranking (ECR) RB7 feels like his ceiling. Much like Allen, I love selling players who are at their peak, and that feels like Etienne to me. The Jaguars are a contending team this year, but they’ll be throwing a lot with Trevor Lawrence and his receiving corps. The Bigsby news is just the final straw for me. If I can get a fair offer in return for him, I’m fine getting out on Etienne before the ship sinks once and for all.
Rachaad White (RB – TB)
White feels like a trap to me. He’s currently got a FantasyPros ECR of RB20, but he’s on a team with little to no offensive certainty. I prefer my running backs to be in a scheme where they’ll see a lot of volume, which White should see, but I also like them to see a lot of red zone trips. This second part is what worries me about the Buccaneers in 2023. White isn’t a bad player, but RB20 could end up being the upper end of his potential. I’d much rather pivot off of him to another RB and add in a future pick or player at another position. See if you can find the White truther in your league and make a deal that makes both of you happy.
