It’s Week 6, and by now, fantasy football managers have either found their rhythm or are quietly pretending that 1-4 is “just bad luck.” The waiver wire is thinning, trade deadlines are creeping closer, and every decision feels like the hinge between playoff glory and another “next year” speech. That’s where our Featured Pros come in — here to help you spot the buy-low gems and sell-high mirages before your league mates do. Let’s dive into who’s trending the wrong way (and why that’s a good thing) — and which players’ stats might be about to come crashing down.

Players to Buy Low & Sell High in Week 6
Buy Low
Who is your favorite buy-low trade candidate heading into Week 6 and why? Also, who are you willing to give up for him?
Tetairoa McMillan (WR – TEN)
“Unfortunately, Tetairoa McMillan hasn’t lived up to his fantasy draft hype, averaging 11.8 PPR fantasy points per game this season. However, better days are ahead for the rookie. While Xavier Legette and Mitchell Evans caught Bryce Young‘s two passing touchdowns on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, McMillan remains the quarterback’s go-to target. The former Arizona star had eight targets, twice as many as anyone else on the team. Furthermore, the rest of Carolina’s wide receiver corps had 10 targets in Week 5. McMillan’s 29.6% target share and 36.9% receiving yards share led the team for the fifth consecutive game. Once he starts to connect with Young in the end zone, McMillan will produce like a top-15 wide receiver. I would happily sell high on Michael Pittman Jr. to land the former Arizona star.”

TreVeyon Henderson (RB – NE)
“TreVeyon Henderson. The talented rookie is averaging fewer than 10 touches per game. Antonio Gibson is lost for the season, and Rhamondre Stevenson has lost three fumbles in five games. As Mike Vrabel gets more comfortable with Henderson, the usage should increase, particularly in the passing game. Perhaps Keenan Allen could net you Henderson and a lower-tier wide receiver.”

Sell High
Who is your favorite sell-high candidate after Week 6 and why? Also, who would you try to get in return?
Romeo Doubs (WR – GB)
“Romeo Doubs has four touchdowns in the past three games, but has not topped 68 yards, and has only one game with four or more receptions. He only had four scores last year, scoring a pair in two games. Doubs topped 70 yards twice last year, including two games with five or more receptions. He’s hit or miss. Perhaps you can deal or package him for rookies Matthew Golden or Travis Hunter, who have not lived up to expectations yet.”
