Dynasty Trade Advice: Wide Receivers to Sell (Fantasy Football)

Now that rookie drafts have ended and eyes are turning to training camps, dynasty managers should also be looking at how to tweak their rosters. Personally, when I look to make a trade, I start with my roster and see what players are ranked higher in dynasty expert consensus rankings (ECR) than I think they should be. These rankings are a way to see who the market might like more than me, and a good starting point for building a trade. Here are players I’m selling if I can, grouped by their approximate value. If you want to make a big trade, you need a big asset to sell. Let’s dive into some dynasty trade advice!

Dynasty Trade Advice: Wide Receivers to Sell

Puka Nacua (WR – LAR)

The shine on Puka Nacua has faded a little, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. Maybe it’s the fact that there’s not much competition behind him, meaning he should see a lot of double teams. Maybe it’s because of his aging quarterback in Matt Stafford. Or maybe it’s just that I’ve seen a lot of great players become good ones in the blink of an eye. Either way, Nacua’s WR5 ECR feels like a good place to get out. I just don’t see him getting much better given who’s currently ranked ahead of him.

Travis Hunter (WR, CB – JAX)

Travis Hunter is uncharted territory for fantasy managers. If he plays more defense than offense, then his current ECR of WR17 is insane. There’s no way he returns that value. On the other hand, even if he only plays receiver, WR17 is still insane. Rookie receivers are always a crapshoot, but adding in the wrinkle of playing both ways worries me. Rookie fever is likely still in effect, so maybe you can move him now before your league mates see him on the sideline at training camp and his value takes a tumble.

George Pickens (WR – DAL)

The Cowboys have been looking for a No. 2 WR behind CeeDee Lamb for years and hope they finally have their guy in George Pickens. He finished as WR42 in PPR last year in Pittsburgh with some questionable quarterback play. His ECR of WR31 seems a little too hopeful for my liking, with similar questions at quarterback in Dallas. Can he step up in a new uniform, or will he crumble under the pressure? I’m fine getting out before we know. There are plenty of wide receivers I like ranked behind him that I’d rather take the same amount of risk on.
