If you’ve ever stared at a dynasty trade offer for far too long, toggling back and forth between your league page and a rankings list, the FantasyPros Dynasty Trade Value Chart was made for you. And if you’re the kind of fantasy football manager who updates spreadsheets mid-meeting to reflect rookie draft pick trades, you’ve probably already memorized half of it.
This month, FantasyPros updated its Dynasty Trade Value Chart with some key additions-tight end premium formats and 2027 dynasty rookie pick values chief among them. But while June tends to be one of the quieter months in dynasty fantasy football circles, it’s also a great time to take stock. That’s exactly what Ryan Wormeli, Pat Fitzmaurice, and Scott Bogman did on a recent episode of the FantasyPros Dynasty Football Podcast, breaking down the players they think the chart gets right-and wrong.
Here’s what stood out the most from their super-sized trade value chart episode.
Dynasty Fantasy Football Trade Values: Players to Target & Avoid
Overvalued: Baker Mayfield (QB – TB)
Let’s start at quarterback, where Baker Mayfield is currently holding down the QB16 spot in superflex leagues with a value of 74. That puts him in the same tier as Jahmyr Gibbs and just a tick below Puka Nacua and Brian Thomas Jr. According to Fitz, that’s too rich.
Yes, Mayfield lit it up in 2024 with 41 touchdowns and nearly 400 rushing yards. But that was a statistical outlier in nearly every category. He’s also 30 years old, entering yet another season with a new play-caller, and somehow valued ahead of younger, higher-upside options like Kyler Murray, Michael Penix, Cam Ward, and Justin Fields.
Both Fitz and Bogman agree: in redraft, Baker is a fine asset. But in dynasty? They’d sell now while the market is still hot.
Undervalued: Justin Fields (QB – NYJ)
If Mayfield is a sell, Fields might be your best buy-low candidate. Currently valued as QB22, Fields lands in that dangerous-but-intriguing territory where upside meets uncertainty. He hasn’t exactly been set up to succeed—he’s been through three coaching staffs and two franchises in three seasons. But the dual-threat upside hasn’t vanished.
The Jets may be a mess, but garbage time still counts. If Fields finds any stability in New York or elsewhere in the next two seasons, his value could skyrocket. Bogman would even flip Baker for Fields straight-up today.
Sleeper to Stash: Dylan Sampson (RB – CLE)
The guys were largely in agreement that the running back values are in good shape, but one name kept coming up as a potential steal: Dylan Sampson.
Buried behind Quinshon Judkins and Jerome Ford in Cleveland’s backfield, Sampson might not see immediate volume. But the Browns are set to run the ball a lot, and Sampson has standout traits—elite speed, lateral agility, and better-than-expected between-the-tackles ability.
Sampson’s value sits at just 14 on the chart—on par with roster-filler WR6 types—but the guys see legit upside if he gets a shot. “He’s this year’s Aaron Jones if things break right,” said Bogman.
Too High: Bhayshul Tuten (RB – JAC)
Tuten entered the NFL with plenty of hype thanks to explosive measurables and a strong combine, but he’s walking into a murky situation. Jacksonville still has Travis Etienne (for now), Tank Bigsby, and La’Quint Allen. It’s a crowded backfield with an unclear pecking order.
Bogman and Fitz both agreed that Tuten, while talented, is being pushed up boards too quickly-especially given his 5’8″ frame and the likelihood that he never owns a backfield outright. He’s being valued like a high-end RB3 (RB28), and that’s simply too rich for a fourth-rounder who may only be a part-time player.
Set to Rise: Bucky Irving (RB – TB)
Fitz is bullish on Bucky Irving-and it’s hard to blame him. The former Oregon back led all running backs in yards after contact per carry last season and took over the Bucs backfield with ease, sending Rachaad White to the bench.
He’s currently RB7 in dynasty value, tied with names like Garrett Wilson and ahead of Trey McBride in some formats. Is it aggressive? Maybe. But after what he did last year—and considering the wide-open nature of the Bucs’ backfield—it may still not be high enough.
Just Right: George Pickens (WR – DAL)
When the Cowboys acquired George Pickens, it felt like a move that could finally unlock the explosive receiver’s ceiling. The fantasy community, though, hasn’t entirely bought in.
Currently WR35 on the trade chart, Pickens has fallen into a weird valley: no longer a WR1 in his offense, but far too talented to ignore. As Bogman pointed out, the list of quarterbacks he’s played with-Kenny Pickett, Mitchell Trubisky, Mason Rudolph, Justin Fields, Russell Wilson—reads like a warning label.
Now with Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb commanding coverage, Pickens could thrive as a high-upside WR2 in Dallas. “I have him at WR19,” said Bogman. “I want that jersey.”
Too Tough to Call: Trey McBride vs. Bucky Irving in Tight End Premium
Tight end premium formats have officially shaken up the dynasty landscape. Brock Bowers has jumped into top-six overall consideration. Trey McBride, coming off a 111-catch season, is arguably TE2 and rising.
One of the most fascinating debates from the show? McBride vs. Bucky Irving. In a non-SF, tight end premium league, Worm and Fitz leaned Bucky. Bogman went McBride.
It comes down to roster construction and preference. Do you want to lock up a tight end cornerstone? Or chase a young, productive back with explosive upside? There’s no wrong answer-unless your league doesn’t use tight ends at all.
Dynasty is About the Edges
In dynasty leagues, the edges matter. Value isn’t just about ADP or rankings—it’s about understanding when to move, who to target, and why the market might be wrong.
Whether it’s flipping aging assets like Calvin Ridley to contenders, scooping up undervalued rookies like Dylan Sampson, or just riding out the rollercoaster with George Pickens, staying on top of the Trade Value Chart and trusting your process can be the difference between contending and rebuilding.

Because this time of year, dynasty leagues are won by the managers who prepare when others are asleep.
