Fantasy Football Trade Advice: Emeka Egbuka, Bhayshul Tuten, Jerry Jeudy, Christian Kirk

Week 1 is here, which means fantasy managers everywhere are already panicking about their rosters. That shiny draft pick who looked like a league-winner last week? Suddenly, he’s a “what do I do with this guy?” headache. And that waiver-wire dart you laughed at your league mate for grabbing? Yep, he just scored twice. The good news is you don’t have to navigate the emotional rollercoaster alone. Our Featured Pros have put together their early Buy Low, Sell High recommendations to help you steady the ship (or shamelessly abandon it before it sinks). Let’s dive in before next week convinces you your entire roster is cursed.

Week 1 Buy Low

Who is your favorite buy-low trade candidate heading into the season and why? Also, who are you willing to give up for him?

Emeka Egbuka (WR – TB)

Emeka Egbuka’s ADP for redraft is way too low for me. I think he’ll be the WR1 on that team at some point this season, potentially even in Week 1 with Chris Godwin‘s injury keeping him out of the lineup. If he’s being valued as a bench player, then I want to trade for him whenever possible. I think he’ll be a starter in most lineups, especially those with deeper requirements like multiple flex spots. If the other manager is light at RB, I’d be fine sending a fellow bench WR and a bench RB to try to help them out, but given his price, you shouldn’t need to pay too much.”

Bhayshul Tuten (RB – JAC)

Bhayshul Tuten has the ability to break the big one on any given week, very similar to Bucky Irving a year ago in this same Liam Coen offense. Tuten has serious competition for touches, with Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby the odds-on favorites to get the first crack at winning the job. Yet Etienne was dreadful a year ago, while Bigsby is just an okay runner. Tuten has the wow factor, and this makes him one of the best early trade targets for any fantasy manager. Parting ways with Jayden Reed, or even Chris Olave as part of a bigger package, would be good enough if I could land someone with the potential of Tuten.”

Jerry Jeudy (WR – CLE) | Christian Kirk (WR – JAC)

“I’m going to cheat and put 2 of my favorite ADP picks here. Jerry Jeudy and Christian Kirk have been undervalued all draft season. Jerry Jeudy is the clear #1 target for a check-down quarterback, and we saw the breakout last year. Christian Kirk has an elite WR opposite him, which allows him to embrace the WR2 role that he excels in. I believe Stroud and the offense will turn it around. Kirk’s ADP was behind guys like Marvin Mims, Rashid Shaheed, an injured Brandon Aiyuk, and other WRs without his pedigree and production.”
