Dynasty Trade Advice: Players to Buy or Sell (Fantasy Football)

Every Monday morning, dynasty managers deal with the fallout of the prior weekend. Should you panic-sell your underproducing veterans? Is the breakout rookie actually a flash in the pan? The key to long-term success isn’t just drafting well; it’s trading well. This weekly article is your go-to guide to navigating the dynasty trade market and increasing roster value through trades. Below, I’ll cover two actionable “buy-low” targets and “sell-high” recommendations from a dynasty lens. Let’s dive in and make some profitable deals.

Dynasty Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Players to Buy

Zay Flowers (WR – BAL)

Believe it or not, DraftKings Sportsbook has the Baltimore Ravens at -140 odds to win their division this year, despite their 3-5 start. The AFC North is especially weak this year, and with Lamar Jackson back at the helm, it’s expected that Baltimore goes on a big run in the second half of the season. This is great news for alpha wide receiver Zay Flowers. The third-year receiver out of Boston College is currently sitting as the WR24 in PPR points per game this season, and this is with Cooper Rush and Tyler Huntley under center for half the year.

Flowers is one of the most dynamic route runners in the NFL. His 29.8% target share ranks eighth amongst wide receivers, and his 2.45 yards per route run ranks 10th overall. Flowers has managed to post over 13 PPR points per game through eight weeks despite only finding the end zone once. Flowers has never been a major red-zone threat, but we can expect some positive regression in the touchdown department now that Jackson is healthy. He is currently valued as the dynasty WR26 on KeepTradeCut, a community-sourced ranking site. Flowers is my WR18, presenting and an excellent buy window for the young ascending star.

Colston Loveland (TE – CHI)

Finally, a Colston Loveland breakout game. After failing to hit double-digit fantasy points in his first six NFL games, the rookie tight end out of Michigan came through in a big way in Week 9. Loveland posted nearly 30 PPR points, including the game-winning touchdown over the Cincinnati Bengals. He showed us exactly why he was a top-10 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and while his dynasty price tag has increased, we’re far from peak value.

While I’m bullish on Loveland’s long-term outlook, I’m not ready to put him in the Trey McBride and Tyler Warren tier yet. Yes, this six-reception, two-touchdown performance was a massive step forward for the rookie, but we have to keep in mind the game script. This game was a shootout, with Chicago scoring 47 points. Loveland managed just a 20% target rate despite all his raw production, and this was with Rome Odunze seeing only three targets. There’s still a ton of target competition in Chicago for Loveland to deal with.

I do think Loveland is a Flex-worthy play rest of season, but I’m much more excited about him in 2026 and beyond. The Bears can get out of Cole Kmet‘s contract after this season, and with Ben Johnson hand-selecting Loveland for his offense, I expect we’ll see him as the focal point in this receiving game by next season. He’s already seen an over 80% snap rate in back-to-back games. I’d be willing to sell a mid-to-late first-round rookie pick for Loveland in TE-Premium formats. I would also be comfortable selling someone like George Kittle or Jake Ferguson, plus a mid-round rookie pick, to tier up to Loveland. I have him as my dynasty TE5 overall, right after Sam LaPorta.

Players to Sell

Javonte Williams (RB – DAL)

There’s no doubt Javonte Williams has been one of the biggest “winners” of the 2025 season from a fantasy sense. Before the season, we weren’t even sure Williams would win the job over Miles Sanders, and now he’s sitting as the RB6 overall in PPR formats. If you held Williams on your dynasty team through all the injuries and struggles in Denver, you were finally rewarded for your extreme patience.

If you currently roster Williams and are not one of the top four teams in your league, I think now would be a great time to get out while you’re ahead. He is currently valued as the dynasty RB17 on KeepTradeCut, in line with a late first-round pick, just after Zay Flowers. (If you can somehow flip Williams for Flowers, please do that now.)

Ultimately, this is still a running back who signed a one-year deal for backup money, and someone who has torn his ACL and LCL. We’re years removed from that knee injury, and I’m not one to shy away from buying a player due to hypothetical injury concerns. Still, there’s no denying that Williams’ dynasty value is one injury away from plummeting to nearly zero. There’s just no value insulation here.

If you’re in the running for a bye week, it’s probably worth hanging onto the production for now. However, if you’re a middling team, I’d see if you can sell Williams for a projected late-first (any year). You could also see if adding a depth piece or a late-round pick gets you into that “first-round” conversation.

DJ Moore (WR – CHI)

If you’re a DJ Moore owner in dynasty, I highly encourage you to shop him around following his big Week 9 performance. Before this game, Moore had yet to hit 13 PPR points all year. He still has yet to see over seven targets in a single game this season, which means if he’s not scoring touchdowns, he will have difficulty meeting fantasy expectations.

Moore is sitting with just a 17.3% target share (WR57) and 9.3 expected fantasy points per game (WR50). We must expect Luther Burden to continue getting ramped up once he returns from concussion protocol, which will directly impact Moore’s opportunity share. Moore will be 29 before next season and will likely be phased out of this offense if he’s still in Chicago.

Regarding trade opportunities, I don’t think a late-first is on the table, but I would start negotiations with a couple of seconds and go from there. If we’re looking at players, I would be willing to trade Moore for Burden straight up. I would also look to tier down to Troy Franklin and get a plus on top. If you’re contending but want more reliable production, see if you can add a late-round pick on top of Moore to tier up to Davante Adams.
