There is plenty of hype around McConkey, despite a down sophomore season, but that doesn't mean he isn't attainable in trades at the moment. I fully expect the Mike McDaniel experience to get off to a great start on Sunday, as the Chargers host an inferior Cardinals defense that surrendered 2.59 points per drive a season ago, the fourth-worst mark in the league. The Cardinals also posted the second-worst defensive success rate on plays with motion (53.2%)...During the preseason, the Chargers utilized motion on 125 of 167 offensive plays (75%), up from their 50% motion rate from a year ago.

McConkey undervalued trade target; faces weak Cardinals defense with McDaniel's motion scheme.

McConkey is a buy-low trade target despite down sophomore season; Chargers face Cardinals defense that surrendered 2.59 points per drive (fourth-worst) in Week 1. Mike McDaniel's arrival brings massive motion increase (75% of preseason plays vs. 50% prior year), which Cardinals struggled against (53.2% defensive success rate on motion plays, second-worst). McConkey attainable in trades now before difficult schedule after Week 2 Raiders matchup.
