Players to Buy Low & Sell High in Week 12
Buy
Who is your favorite buy-low trade candidate heading into Week 12 and why? Also, who are you willing to give up for him?
Mark Andrews (TE – BAL)
“If you’ve got a void at tight end, Mark Andrews could be a nice lowball target before your league’s trade deadline. Since Week 3, Andrews has been the TE6 in half-PPR fantasy scoring and TE10 in fantasy points per game. He hasn’t been a true difference maker, and his value is largely touchdown-dependent, but Andrews closes with a cakewalk schedule that includes games against the can’t-cover-tight-ends Bengals in Weeks 13 and 15, the Steelers in Week 14 and the Patriots and Packers (who haven’t been great against tight ends) in Weeks 16-17. If you need tight end help, try to acquire Andrews for a spare part like Parker Washington or Jordan Mason.”

RJ Harvey (RB – DEN)
“Heading into Week 12, I’m targeting players who will help me in the playoffs. That’s why I’m trying to acquire Denver running back RJ Harvey. Denver has a bye this week, so if his current manager needs a win to get in and you’re already locked in, send them someone who can help them this week, like Woody Marks or Travis Etienne. I’d rather have Harvey and his volume over either of those two, but you have to be able to take the zero in Week 12 to make it worth doing.”
– Andrew Hall (FantasyPros)
“RJ Harvey is my favorite buy-low target for Week 12 because the underlying efficiency is too good to ignore. Even with a down game in Week 11, he still ranks fourth among all running backs in fantasy points per touch and 18th in yards per touch, proving he’s one of the league’s most efficient backs when given opportunities. He also handled a season-high 61% of snaps, and with J.K. Dobbins out, this is undeniably Harvey’s backfield as Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie combined for just 26% of the snaps. Pair that with elite usage in the passing game at 23% targets per route run and 1.42 yards per route run, and it puts him among the top backs in football. His upcoming stretch of Washington, Las Vegas and Green Bay ranks as the 13th-easiest schedule among running backs. A bounce-back is inevitable. I would be willing to part ways with D’Andre Swift or Breece Hall to secure Harvey.”

Sell
Who is your favorite sell-high candidate after Week 11 and why? Also, who would you try to get in return?
Quinshon Judkins (RB – CLE)
“I’ve noticed that a lot of Quinshon Judkins stakeholders have been trying to trade him, and it’s easy to see why. Judkins’ value reached its zenith when he lit up the Dolphins for three touchdowns in Week 5. Since then, he’s averaged 3.2 yards per carry and has been the RB24 in half-PPR fantasy points per game. Judkins’ playoff schedule (Titans, Bears, Bills) will entice potential buyers, but the Browns’ offense is such a sinkhole that Judkins might have trouble capitalizing on favorable matchups. I’d take Tee Higgins, Chris Olave or Tyler Warren for Judkins.”
