Dynasty Fantasy Football Trades

Taking advantage of potential valuation trends in the trade market is imperative. That is even more true during the season when players can experience wild valuation changes on a week-to-week basis. Each week, I will be highlighting some players you should be looking to move or acquire and the reasons why.

Buy - Sam Howell, QB WAS

This is mainly a player to target in superflex leagues. However, Howell could also work in one quarterback league. In his one game last year, he rushed for 35 rushing yards. That feels like his floor for rushing production this year. If he averages 35 yards per game, that would put him at just shy of 600 yards for the season. The list of quarterbacks last year who finished with over 600 rushing yards: Justin Fields, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts, and Daniel Jones. Four of those players finished in the top ten at the position, and Lamar Jackson missed out due to only playing 12 games but averaged over 20 fantasy points per game.

The Commanders seem determined to allow Howell to start all year. If that happens with his rushing production, he will be a fringe top-12 quarterback. He is currently the QB27 in ADP and can be acquired for around a future second-round pick. That cost is worth it for his 2022 production alone. If he wins the starting job in the longer term, you'll see a massive return on your investment.

Buy - Cooper Kupp, WR LAR
