Dynasty Fantasy Football: Targets Acquired

Standing still is the fastest way of moving backward in a rapidly changing dynasty landscape. The best dynasty teams are the most active in looking for ways to add value to their dynasty rosters, as part of a continuous process.

The Dynasty Targets Acquired series focuses on making dynasty buys to improve your roster, heading towards one of two key destinations – contending to win a dynasty title in 2024 or rebuilding for a dynasty title challenge in 2025. Each article in the series will highlight a dynasty buy for both contenders and rebuilders – with three trade ideas based on the DLF Trade Analyzer: Pivot Up, Same Tier or Pivot Down.

Buying as a contender is all about winning the title now, while leaving the window open to compete again year after year. Buying as a rebuilder is all about making the right trades to maximize roster value next season and become a contender for a dynasty championship.

Time Context and Strategy

After months of thinking that your team is ready to compete for a championship, the first two weeks of the regular season have you rethinking everything. There have been underperforming offenses along with injuries to many of our fantasy football stars.

It is still early enough in the season that you can still rebound or change your strategy. 0-2 is not what you wanted but you can still rebound. On the other hand, you may know that even if you are going to squeak into the playoffs, you are not truly a contender. We have so little to go off in two games but now is the time to make moves for this year or the future.
