Top Dynasty Trade Targets

Which RB are you targeting now in dynasty leagues and why? Also, what are you willing to give up to get him?

Trey Benson (RB – ARI)

“Even after James Conner signed an extension in the middle of last season, Trey Benson should not be slept on. For one, Conner’s extension is essentially a one-year deal that Arizona could theoretically get out of at the end of 2025 if they choose to do so. Conner dominated the backfield last season for the Cardinals with 236 carries, a career high. Can he do that again as a player with not exactly a flawless injury record is the question. If Benson could be had for a mid-to-late day 2 draft selection, that would be an easy pull-the-trigger move to get a player with massive upside down the road.”
– Ed Birdsall (Talking Points Sports)

“Typically, buying veteran RBs in dynasty formats nets a poor return, but targeting second-year RBs has been profitable. Arizona Cardinals RB, Trey Benson, was a non-factor during his rookie season because James Conner stayed healthy. But long-time veteran just turned 30, coming off a career-high in touches. With positive coach speak from Jonathan Gannon for Benson this offseason, in addition to zero backfield competition added by the Cardinals, I project him to take the RB sophomore leap. Acquire him with Travis Etienne Jr., or a late second-round rookie pick.”

Tank Bigsby (RB – JAC)

“While everyone is talking about RB Bayshul Tuten in Jacksonville, I’m trying to add Tank Bigsby to my rosters where possible. He’s being overlooked, but I’m not sure why. While Tuten is the new toy, he was a 4th-round pick, while Bigsby was a 3rd-round pick just two years ago. Fantasy managers have soured on Etienne, and rightfully so, but why are we giving up on Bigsby? I’m fine adding him for a future pick or flex-worthy WR on the right teams.”
– Andrew Hall (FantasyPros)

Ray Davis (RB – BUF)

Ray Davis is an underrated dynasty trade target. Last year, the Bills led the NFL with 32 rushing touchdowns, with James Cook leading the league with 16. However, he is in the middle of a contract dispute, and a holdout can’t be ruled out. Davis had three rushing touchdowns as a rookie on 113 attempts. More importantly, the former Kentucky star was outstanding when Cook missed a game with an injury. He finished Week 6 as the RB14, totaling 23 touches for 152 scrimmage yards and 16.7 half-point PPR fantasy points despite not scoring a touchdown. Fantasy players should be willing to trade a third-round rookie pick for Davis.”
– Mike Fanelli (FantasyPros)

Jordan Mason (RB – MIN)

“The Vikings traded for Jordan Mason this spring and immediately gave him a two-year deal that includes more than $7 million in guaranteed money. The Vikings run a lot of outside zone. So do the 49ers, and Mason thrived in San Francisco’s system early last year while Christian McCaffrey was out. In the 49ers’ first five games of 2024, Mason averaged 107 rushing yards per game, 120 scrimmage yards per game, and 5.1 yards per carry. Mason just turned 26, and he’ll be No. 2 in the Minnesota backfield behind Aaron Jones, who turns 31 in December. I’d be willing to part with a 2026 second-rounder to get Mason. I’d also be willing to trade Pat Freiermuth or Cooper Kupp for Mason.”
– Pat Fitzmaurice (FantasyPros)

Brian Robinson (RB – WAS)

“Brian Robinson was a popular sleeper pick in 2024, but has no momentum this year. Robinson finished between RB11 and 24 on nine occasions last year, but the lack of ceiling games has kept people away from getting too carried away this year. If you want a solid flex play, Robinson is your man and available for the equivalent of the 2.08 pick.”

Fantasy Football Rankings: Dynasty Trade Value Chart (Updated)

Which WR are you targeting now in dynasty leagues and why? Also, what are you willing to give up to get him?

Ricky Pearsall (WR – SF)

“For any dynasty managers, rebuilding or contending, Ricky Pearsall is the guy to go out and get. Pearsall was fantastic at the end of last year, recording 14 catches for 200+ yards and 2 scores in the last two weeks of the year for the 49ers. Pearsall has a pathway to immediate targets in a fantastic San Francisco offense, and could eventually work his way to being the top wideout on this team that features both Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings. At age 24 and only entering his second year in the league, trading away an aging Davante Adams or a hyped up George Pickens would be a wise play to land someone with the potential of Pearsall.”
Ed Birdsall (Talking Points Sports)

“This is a good time to acquire Ricky Pearsall, especially if you’re rebuilding or retooling your dynasty team. It’s hard to tell how targets are going to be parceled out in the San Francisco offense, but I think there’s a good chance Pearsall outproduces teammates Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings. A late-first-round draft pick in 2024, Pearsall played 11 games as a rookie after recovering from a gunshot sustained in an attempted robbery. He caught fire down the stretch, with 8-141-1 vs. the Lions in Week 17 and 6-69-1 vs. the Cardinals in Week 18. Pearsall is 6-foot-1, has 4.4 speed, and he’s going to have a full-time role in the 49ers’ offense. If I were in rebuilding mode, I’d trade Derrick Henry, Christian McCaffrey or George Kittle for Pearsall. ”
Pat Fitzmaurice (FantasyPros)

Drake London (WR – ATL)

“Buy high on Drake London, who is a dark horse to be the No. 1 WR overall in fantasy football in 2025. We know the WR1 overall typically leads the NFL in red-zone targets, and that has been London’s calling card. The 25-year-old WR ended 2024 with 23 red-zone targets, tied for the third-most among all WRs (fifth in red-zone targets per game). The Falcons’ WR ranks first in red zone target rate over the past three seasons. He also operated from the slot more last season. London was one of the highest-graded WRs operating from the slot, third only to elite WRs: Puka Nacua and Nico Collins (PFF). Trade a top-3 rookie picks in this year’s rookie drafts or with RBs-plus like Saquon Barkley, De’Von Achane, or Bucky Irving to acquire the Falcons superstar WR before he melts faces.”
Andrew Erickson (FantasyPros)

Michael Pittman (WR – IND)

Michael Pittman seems to have fallen out of favor with dynasty managers in a big and loud way. He was a top-30 WR in recent months, but with the new rookie crop being added, he’s now sitting at a dynasty ECR of WR46. His production took a hit in 2024 with the issues at QB, but with QB Anthony Richardson coming back, I am predicting another 1,000-yard season. If you can snag him for dirt cheap from a panicked manager, go ahead and stash him on your bench in case he blows up. He definitely can’t get much worse.”
Andrew Hall (FantasyPros)

Ladd McConkey (WR – LAC)

Ladd McConkey had an outstanding rookie year, ending the season as the WR12, averaging 12.5 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. He finished the year on fire, averaging 17.3 fantasy points per game over the final seven regular-season contests and the lone playoff matchup, scoring at least 11.3 or more in every outing. More importantly, McConkey will remain Justin Herbert‘s No. 1 option in the passing game after the Chargers didn’t add a big-name wide receiver this offseason. The former Georgia star should have several more years as a WR1 in his future. I would happily trade away Jaxon Smith-Njigba or Brian Thomas Jr. for McConkey.”
Mike Fanelli (FantasyPros)

Jaylen Waddle (WR – MIA)

Jaylen Waddle – How confident are we that Tyreek Hill is still the WR1 on this offense? It might seem slightly hyperbolic, but Hill recently turned 31 years old and hardly seems enamored with being on the Dolphins roster right now, not to mention he continues to live an unsettled life off the field. Waddle had a woe-filled 2024, with only four double-digit PPR performances, but he’s not far removed from performances that led to the Dolphins giving him a three-year $84m extension in May 2024. Offering the 2.01 would be a solid starting point.”

Which QB/TE are you targeting now in dynasty leagues and why? Also, what are you willing to give up to get him?

Evan Engram (TE – DEN)

“Specifically, a move for teams looking to contend, the opportunity to buy on Evan Engram is very appealing. Engram signed a two-year deal with the Denver Broncos, who have a wide-open offense that desperately needed another target opposite Courtland Sutton. Throw him in an offense spearheaded by Sean Payton, a known tight end whisperer (see Jimmy Graham for more), and there is all the makings of a real nice TE1. Trading Jonnu Smith or David Njoku, two players with massive question marks, to get this done feels like a no-brainer.”
Ed Birdsall (Talking Points Sports)

Bryce Young (QB – CAR)

“QB-needy team in Superflex dynasty formats should kick the tires on QB Bryce Young. The start of last season was dreadful for the former 1st overall pick, but he turned his performance around in a hurry. With his strong regular season finish, Young became one of just three to have two or more touchdown passes and rushing touchdowns in a game this season, according to the NFL’s Next Gen Stats. In Young’s last three games, he totaled seven passing touchdowns and three rushing touchdowns with zero interceptions. After he returned to the lineup in Week 8, Young was 10th in PFF passing grade, operating as the QB12 overall, averaging 18.6 fantasy points per game. You can acquire Young with a late rookie first-round pick or with veterans such as Kyren Williams, DK Metcalf, Jordan Addison, Chris Olave, or DJ Moore.”
Andrew Erickson (FantasyPros)

Ben Sinnott (TE – WAS)

“Call me crazy, but I’m ready and waiting for a breakout from Ben Sinnott in Washington. He’s technically listed as the third TE on the team, behind both Zach Ertz and John Bates. Even still, he’s ranked ahead of both in dynasty ECR. Sinnott is TE32 while Ertz is TE33, clearly due to age. Bates is much lower. In TE premium leagues, I want all of the Sinnott I can fit on my bench. His cost is almost free, too, which is the price I’m always interested in.”
Andrew Hall (FantasyPros)

Drake Maye (QB – NE)

Drake Maye is one of my favorite trade targets in dynasty leagues this offseason. He was outstanding in his first two starts as a rookie, completing 65.7% of his pass attempts for 519 yards, five touchdowns, two interceptions, and 40.3 fantasy points, scoring 19.5 or more in both contests. Furthermore, Maye was on pace for 579 rushing yards over a 17-game pace as a starter, which would have ranked fourth among quarterbacks. More importantly, the Patriots significantly improved their supporting cast this offseason, adding Stefon Diggs and Morgan Moses in free agency while selecting Will Campbell, TreVeyon Henderson, Kyle Williams, and Jared Wilson in the NFL Draft. I would trade the 1.02 pick and more in 2025 rookie drafts or a veteran like Kyler Murray for Maye.”
Mike Fanelli (FantasyPros)

Kyle Pitts (TE – ATL)

“You’ll hate me for saying it, but Kyle Pitts is so dirt cheap these days that I think he’s worth a flyer. Pitts is only 24, and there’s still talent lurking here. This is the same guy who began his first NFL season at age 20 and became the first rookie tight end to record a 1,000-yard season since Mike Ditka 60 years earlier. Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson has said he expects Pitts to take a big jump in his second year in Robinson’s system. And second-year QB Michael Penix could be the rising tide that lifts all boats in the Atlanta passing game. I’d be willing to trade Deebo Samuel, Jakobi Meyers, Brian Robinson or Jaylen Warren for Pitts.”
Pat Fitzmaurice (FantasyPros)

Isaiah Likely (TE – BAL)

“It seems incredibly clear that the Ravens have started the slow process of turning over TE1 duties from Mark Andrews to Isaiah Likely. Andrews failed to earn targets at his usual standard in 2024, and while he was excellent in the red zone, leading all tight ends in touchdowns, the magic doesn’t quite seem to be there anymore. Both he and Likely are in the last years of their contract, and the Ravens have hardly been steadfast in their commitment to Andrews going forward. Even if Andrews were extended, Likely could also hit the free agency market next year and immediately have a clearer path to relevancy. I’d happily give up the 2.10-2.12 to get Likely. ”
