Player insights

A.J. Brown

NegativeValue15:56

Ron Stewart would trade AJ Brown and Dallas Goedert for Tee Higgins, viewing this as a fair or slightly favorable trade for Higgins. However, Stewart notes Goedert is viewed as a zero in value, making this not a meaningful upgrade for the Higgins owner.

Insight page

Aaron Jones

NegativeValue16:22

Ron Stewart would trade DJ Moore and Aaron Jones for Tee Higgins if he had sufficient running back depth, indicating Jones is part of a viable two-for-one trade package. However, Stewart is hesitant due to concerns about Jordan Mason's reliability as a backup option.

Insight page

Braelon Allen

PositiveRole1:24

Strong flex/RB2 option for Week 7 with actionable bench value. Ron Stewart loves Braelon Allen and recommends starting him if he fits your lineup, but if he's not in your starting lineup and you have a hole elsewhere (e.g., weak at wide receiver or need a back-weighted RB), he's a prime trade candidate to shop to teams with bye-week needs or missing their top running back.

Insight page

Chase Brown

NegativeValue30:39

The source mentions Chase Brown in the context of trade discussions around Jaylen Warren, though no specific stance is provided.

Insight page

Chris Olave

PositiveValue21:36

Holds significant value; source would not trade Chris Olave for Jaylen Warren and J Mo package, indicating Olave is worth more than that combination in the current market.

Insight page

Christian Watson

PositiveValue14:06

Watson is in a higher value tier and should not be sold for Tee Higgins. Ron Stewart explicitly lists Watson as a player he would not trade for Higgins, grouping him with top-tier WRs like Teddy McMillan, Matthew Golden, Justin Jefferson, and Bejon. This indicates Watson is a hold and should not be moved for Higgins.

Insight page

D.J. Moore

PositiveValue16:22

Ron Stewart identifies DJ Moore as a buy-low candidate on bye week, qualifying as a player worth acquiring if you are 4-2 or better in your league. Moore is grouped with Stefan Diggs and other bye-week players as good candidates to trade for. Stewart would also trade Moore and Aaron Jones for Tee Higgins if he had sufficient running back depth.

Insight page

Drake Maye

NegativeValue30:00

The source indicates he would trade Drake May for Jaylen Warren in a one-quarterback league if he had a backup like Jared Goff, suggesting Warren has value relative to May.

Insight page

Garrett Wilson

NegativeValue20:47

Overpriced in current trade market; source would not trade Jaylen Warren for Garrett Wilson, indicating Wilson is not worth the asking price relative to Warren's value.

Insight page

George Kittle

NegativeRole3:35

Comparison tight end with strong current production; if you already have Kittle in your tight end spot, you do not need to acquire Tucker Kraft in a trade.

Insight page

George Pickens

NegativeBust6:54

The source owns Pickens in his home league and rates him as a bust. Outside of the second half when CD Lamb suffered a quad injury in prime time versus Tampa Bay, Pickens has been bad. Despite 11 targets in his last game against Green Bay, he is never the first read and the Cowboys offense is empty. The source prefers T. Higgins straight up to Pickens and notes that even in games with 10+ targets (excluding the Lamb injury game), Pickens was not heavily targeted in the first half and is being outproduced by Ryan Fenoy.

Insight page

Harold Fannin

PositiveRole5:54

The source views Fannon as 'kind of dead' with insufficient underlying usage compared to Tucker Craft. Since week three, Fannon's usage aligns with Darnell Washington and Chiggo Okonkwo—not elite tight end territory—making him an inferior trade target compared to Craft.

Insight page

Isaiah Likely

NegativeProjection6:39

Comparison tight end with similar usage and volume profile to Tucker Kraft; Likely is producing at expected levels while Kraft is still ramping up from ACL injury.

Insight page

Ja'Marr Chase

NegativeUsage13:37

Chase's target volume provides context for Higgins' role in the Bengals offense. In the week against Pittsburgh, Chase drew 12 targets while Higgins had 7 targets, 90 yards, and a touchdown—a 20-point performance in the same game, demonstrating that Higgins can produce elite fantasy output even when Chase is heavily targeted.

Insight page

James Cook

NegativeValue21:00

Would not trade James Cook for Jaylen Warren; also rejected in two-quarterback scenario with Patrick Mahomes. Close but rejected when paired with Bucky Irving. Ron Stewart indicates Cook has slightly more value than Warren and Irving combined, suggesting Cook should not be moved in these trade packages.

Insight page

Jared Goff

NegativeValue28:50

The source suggests Jared Goff can be traded for Jordan Tyson in home leagues where owners have drafted multiple quarterbacks, indicating Goff has flex value in single-QB leagues.

Insight page

Jayden Daniels

PositiveProjection33:44

The source notes that Jaden Daniels played well against San Francisco with 300 yards and two touchdowns. While acknowledging some real football flaws (throwaway on fourth down, bad sacks), the source emphasizes that for fantasy purposes, Daniels was slinging it effectively. This performance supports the source's bullish outlook on Stefan Diggs as a buy-low target, given their strong connection and Diggs' increased red zone looks with Daniels.

Insight page

Jaylen Waddle

PositiveValue17:07

Trade offer rejected; not a viable trade target in current market.

Insight page

Jaylen Warren

PositiveValue17:19

Buy-low candidate at RB20 price tag if panic-selling occurs post-Rico Dattle return; ranked RB15 rest of season between Basil Hamm and Bucky Irving. Excellent Week 7 matchup vs Saints who allow the most fantasy points to RBs; Steelers projected 11th most points with uptempo game script. Warren had 18 opportunities on 75% snap share with goal line carry last week, with potential for six catches and touchdown in favorable game. Source believes Warren can deliver more reliable points over the next three weeks than Jeremiah Love, though Love has more upside in weeks 10-17. Small window to buy low on Warren before market corrects.

Insight page

Jeremiyah Love

NegativeValue15:15

Source ranks Jeremiah Love similarly to Tee Higgins in talent but suggests selling him if your team is 1–5 or 2–4 because you no longer have the luxury to wait on his development. Source traded Love and Jawan Johnson to acquire Higgins in his own 2–4 league. Love has more upside in weeks 10–17, but Jaylen Warren can deliver more reliable points over the next three weeks; source considers a trade of Love for Warren as roughly even.

Insight page

Jordan Love

NegativeValue28:50

The source suggests Jordan Love can be traded for Jordan Tyson in single-QB leagues where owners have drafted multiple quarterbacks, indicating Love has flex value in such formats.

Insight page

Jordan Mason

PositiveRole16:30

Ron Stewart is spooked on Jordan Mason's role and reliability, which is why he hesitates to trade DJ Moore and Aaron Jones for Tee Higgins despite finding the trade appealing. This suggests Mason's role or production is unreliable, making Stewart reluctant to give up running back depth. Stewart would also trade Mason straight up for Stefan Diggs, indicating Diggs is undervalued relative to Mason's market value.

Insight page

Jordyn Tyson

PositiveSleeper26:46

Ron Stewart identifies Jordan Tyson as an emerging rookie wide receiver to trade for in Week 7, noting he's getting significant pass attempts and dropbacks in a hurry-up Saints offense. Tyson is traveling with the team to Paris this week and could return as soon as Week 9, positioning him as a potential fantasy playoff flex contributor. Stewart compares Tyson's trajectory to rookie receivers like Brian Thomas, Vlad McConkey, and Jaylen McMillan who won leagues down the stretch. The Saints are fading away from Devon Vele and Jawan Johnson in favor of Tyson's emergence.

Insight page

Josh Jacobs

NegativeRole6:54

The source believes Jacobs' arrival with the Packers will improve overall run game efficiency and help the entire offense rather than hurt Tucker Craft. Jacobs can turn first-and-10 runs into four-yard gains instead of one-yard losses, improving offensive efficiency and reducing goal-line carries by less efficient backs like Marshon Lloyd, which should preserve touchdown opportunities for Craft.

Insight page

Juwan Johnson

NegativeRole27:18

The source notes that the Saints are fading away from Jawan Johnson in favor of emerging rookie Jordan Tyson in their offense.

Insight page

Keon Coleman

PositiveValue27:33

Ron Stewart identifies Keon Coleman as an easy trade target, suggesting he can be acquired in trades.

Insight page

Matthew Golden

NegativeRole3:59

Packers wide receiver contributing to crowded offensive environment; part of context for Tucker Kraft's volume ceiling despite strong usage metrics.

Insight page

Michael Wilson

NegativeProjection16:41

Ron Stewart would sell Michael Wilson and Rashi Rice for Tee Higgins, noting this is selling low on Wilson. Despite previously having Wilson as a buy, the last two weeks have been discouraging, and his yards per route run has not been good this year, suggesting a decline in production or efficiency. Stewart indicates Wilson is not available in return for Aaron Jones, suggesting Wilson has higher trade value than Jones.

Insight page

Ollie Gordon II

PositiveValue8:12

Ranked RB24 rest of season, though source notes he might be too low at that ranking. Gordon is RB14–RB17 in usage since the Hines injury and is comparable to Quincey Judkins and Randre Stevenson in tier; both are workhorse backs in bad offenses. Gordon gets all the goal-line work and functions as a boom-bust runner. In Week 7, he faces the Jets, who allow the eighth-most opponent-adjusted fantasy points to running backs. Source suggests acquiring Gordon on the cheap in trades if you have a bye-week starter (like James Cook) or borderline unstartable options (Emanuel Wilson, Rico Dow) and are in a win-now spot (3-3 record). Gordon's profile resembles early-career Chuba Hubbard with the Panthers.

Insight page

Parker Washington

PositiveValue25:23

Ron Stewart identifies Parker Washington as a buy-low candidate on bye week, recommending acquisition for teams looking to trade for bye-week players. Washington is grouped with other bye-week targets like Stefan Diggs and DJ Moore as good candidates to trade for.

Insight page

Patrick Mahomes

NegativeValue28:50

The source uses Patrick Mahomes as an example of a quarterback that owners draft in multiples, creating trade opportunities for flex help.

Insight page

RJ Harvey

NegativeValue28:34

Ron Stewart suggests trading RJ Harvey straight up for Jordan Tyson as an easy trade, indicating Harvey's value is significantly lower than Tyson's in the current market.

Insight page

Sam LaPorta

NegativeProjection6:39

Comparison tight end with similar usage and volume profile to Tucker Kraft; LaPorta is producing at expected levels while Kraft is still ramping up from ACL injury.

Insight page

Stefon Diggs

PositiveValue25:43

Ron Stewart identifies Stefan Diggs as a strong buy-low target despite being on bye week. Diggs has played hobbled with a 61% snap share but scored a touchdown in his last game. Over three games with Jaden Daniels, Diggs averaged 17.9 PPR points per game, though Stewart projects a more realistic 12-13 PPR per game rest of season. Diggs ranks WR14 in targets per route run and is getting hyper-targeted when on field. Stewart rates him as a high-end WR3 at worst rest of season and emphasizes he is getting disrespected on the market. Stewart would easily trade Paul Sutton, Jordan Mason, or Breeland Allen straight up for Diggs.

Insight page

Tee Higgins

PositiveValue12:25

Ranked WR23–WR24 on the open market but source believes he's closer to top-tier receivers like Tedo McMillan, Matthew Golden, and Christian Watson. In weeks 1–4 (excluding week 5 injury vs. Dolphins), Higgins averaged 17.8 PPG (WR7) on WR10 usage; even including the week 5 dud, he ranks WR11 in yards per route run and WR17 in targets per route run, with 9th in air yard share. The Bengals' WRs face the 3rd-easiest schedule over the next four games, with Baltimore allowing the 5th-most adjusted fantasy points per game to the position. Source traded Jeremiah Love and Jawan Johnson to acquire him in a 2-4 league. Source would trade Josh Jacobs straight up for Higgins but notes acquiring him in real scenarios requires premium assets like Puka Nacua.

Insight page

Terry McLaurin

PositiveInjury32:56

Suffered a season-ending injury on a 27-yard bomb reception. This injury opens up more target opportunities for Stefan Diggs in the Commanders offense and makes Diggs a buy-low candidate.

Insight page

Trey McBride

NegativeValue31:10

The source identifies McBride as a sell candidate, noting that his performance over the last three to four games has not been great. The Cardinals' passing offense has struggled without Marvin Harrison, and the source has concerns about Carson Beck coming in down the stretch as reasons for the sell recommendation.

Insight page

Tucker Kraft

PositiveValue0:33

Primary trade target for Week 7; TE16 overall but TE8 in usage, indicating significant underperformance relative to opportunity. Over last five games, TE5 in usage with expected fantasy points per game just shy of 15, similar to George Kittle, Trey McBride, Tyler Warren, Sam LaPorta, and Isaiah Likely. Still ramping up from ACL injury with only five catches for 37 yards on eight targets in Week 6 vs Cowboys despite full practice participation. Faces Detroit this weekend, which allows 26.8 points per game to opposing tight ends—most in NFL by far; next worst is Washington at 18.8 PPG. Ron Stewart actively buying Kraft on trade market because he is undervalued relative to usage and matchup; real league trade data shows Kraft being acquired for modest assets like Aaron Jones straight up. Stewart believes Josh Jacobs arrival will improve Packers run-game efficiency and help Kraft's overall role rather than hurt it; Jacobs turning short-yardage runs into four-yard gains instead of one-yard losses will improve offensive efficiency and reduce goal-line carries by less efficient backs like Marshon Lloyd, preserving touchdown opportunities for Kraft.

Insight page
PositiveRole4:06

The source believes Josh Jacobs' arrival will not negatively impact Craft; instead, a viable Packers run game will improve overall offensive efficiency. Jacobs turning short-yardage runs into four-yard gains rather than one-yard losses will help the entire operation, and the source notes the Packers have had plenty of touchdowns taken away by previous running backs, suggesting Craft will benefit from improved run-game efficiency. Craft faces Detroit this weekend, which allows 26.8 points per game to opposing tight ends—the most in the entire NFL by far; the next worst is Washington at 18.8 points per game. Sunday is also National Tightend's Day, which could amplify Craft's upside. The source is actively buying Craft on the trade market because he is undervalued relative to his usage and matchup. Real fantasy football league trade data shows Craft is being acquired for relatively modest assets (e.g., Aaron Jones straight up), indicating the market is underpricing him.

Insight page

Tyler Warren

NegativeProjection6:39

Comparison tight end with similar usage and volume profile to Tucker Kraft; Warren is producing at expected levels while Kraft is still ramping up from ACL injury.

Insight page

Zach Charbonnet

NegativeRole2:21

Example of back-weighted running back option for trade strategy; source mentions Charbonnet as an alternative target for teams looking to acquire a running back with more back-loaded production profile compared to front-loaded options like Braelon Allen.

0:00What's going on, man? Welcome back to the basement. I'm Ron and we're in the thick of it. We got injuries, we got
0:06byweeks, we got key matchups going on this week as we are almost halfway through the fantasy football regular season. And right around this time of
0:14year is when everyone is looking to make trades, make moves, save their season, plan ahead. Everything across the board is happening. You're probably getting
0:21hit up out of nowhere about trades at this point. So, when you're engaging in these talks, why not have some players
0:28highlighted that you could be looking to acquire? So, today I'm going to give you my six must buy trade targets for week
0:33seven of the fantasy football season. As always, if you enjoy, leave a like, subscribe if you're new, and our first trade target is going to be Tucker
0:42Craft. Now, I do always like to give some overall trade strategy when we're talking about fantasy football here at the top because I think a big mistake is
0:54trading just to trade. Going out there making a move because it's fun. I I suppose you could try and mine value on the margins. If
1:03you have a player, I don't know, let's say a player ranked 60th overall, you trade away your guy that you think is
1:10ranked like 80th overall, and you can kind of get a profit on the margins there. But I think a big thing now is
1:16looking to problem solve, looking to not have any extra value on your bench, go to waste, right? If you have a guy I I I
1:24actually, we're going to start here, Brilen Allen. I love Brillin Allen, but if he's not in your lineup this week, if
1:30you are just leaving points on the bench like Brilen Allen, you should be taking a guy like Brilen Allen, who I don't
1:34even think is a cell. If he's going into your RB2 spot, if he's going into your flex spot, ride out those points. But if
1:41not and you have a hole elsewhere, maybe you get a a little bit stronger at wide receiver. Maybe you want a running back
1:46that's a little more uh back weighted like a Zack Charbanet, then you can go around look to shop Bray Allen to
1:52somebody who needs running back points this week. Is somebody without their top dog at running back, right? Is the James Cook owner who has James Cook on by,
2:00does he need a fill in? Can you give him Brillin Allen and get something back? Uh stuff like that you should be looking to
2:05do around your league. I think the best thing you could do is problem solve, set yourself up for the future, uh, instead
2:11of just like trading just to trade because yes, I'm going to give you six players here that you should be trading
2:15for that I think are good trade targets, but Tucker Craft, if you got George KD in your tight end spot, you don't need
2:21to go buy Tucker Craft. So, across the board, just something to think about.
2:26Now, Tucker Craft, why we like him, he is the tight end 16 on the year. He has been massively disappointing for where
2:33people drafted him, but he is the tight end eight in usage. So, he should be doing much better volume-wise, even in
2:39an offense that's a little bit crowded, right? You have Matthew Golden, you have Christian Watson. Tucker Craft only has one game under five targets so far this
2:46year. And I think right now is a great time to buy. Everyone thought fire him up against the Cowboys on prime time.
2:52Tucker Craft is going to go crazy. And all he did was he had eight targets. I will say he had a really really scary uh
2:59kind of like I I got to be honest, I was watching the game. I have Tucker Craft in my home league. I thought he was out for the
3:06season. He uh if you guys remember, he uh got tackled, his knee went a certain way and he just kind of sat down at the
3:13first down marker for legitimately a couple minutes. Like they just injury timeout and he just sat there. I was like, "All right, well there's the other
3:20ACL. It's gone." And I say that to say he logged as a full participant all week long in practice. He is absolutely fine.
3:28He puts up eight targets, tied for the most in a game this year, but only five catches for 37 yards. You do have to
3:33remember here, yes, we've seen some guys like George KD pick up right where he left off. But a guy like Tucker Craft is
3:38still ramping up from that ACL injury.
3:40And I think things can flip here very soon. And if we look at just the last four weeks, he has been the tight end
3:46five usage or actually over his last five games, he has been the tight end five in usage. We look here, this is the
3:53points per game versus expected points per game since week three. So taking out his first two games, he is in line,
3:59right? You look at expected fantasy points per game just shy of 15. He is actually getting similar usage and volume to guys like George KD, Trey
4:06McBride, Tyler Warren, Sam Porter, and Isaiah Likely. He's just not producing on that volume. I would like to buy anybody out there that doesn't think
4:14that Tucker Craft is a startable tight end or that Tucker Craft is going to be negatively impacted by Josh Jacobs. I
4:20think that it'll be kind of an offsetting situation where the Packers actually having any kind of a viable run game I think will actually help the
4:28entire efficiency of the operation here where they continue to just rush Marshon Lloyd for like one yard gains on first and 10. If Josh Jacobs can turn that
4:38into a four-yard gain, so be it. We've had plenty of touchdowns taken away by Marshon Lloyd or whoever is at running
4:44back there. I think Tucker Craft is going to be just fine with Josh Jacobs.
4:48And why we buy him today is because he goes up against Detroit this weekend who is allowing 26.8 points per game to
4:56opposing tight ends. That is the most in the entire NFL by far. They allow 26.8 points per game. Next worst is
5:03Washington allowing 18.8 points per game. Also, if you are into that kind of thing, Sunday is National Tightend's Day, so we could get Tuckercraft
5:12explosions. Now, the entire point of this video is we hop over to fantasycal.com/database and we look at what Tuckercraft is
5:21getting traded for on the open market in real fantasy football leagues. We are going to do uh superflex or one quarterback. I don't really care. We'll
5:32do 10 to 14 teamers.
5:35Uh, fine. And then we'll do half PR, full PBR, no tight end premium. And we'll see what Tucker Craft is going
5:40for. I can't imagine it's all that much.
5:42AJ Brown for Craft and Ibuka. That's not terrible.
5:46Golden for Craft and Swift. I got to be honest, I'm not selling swift. I'm not selling Golden under any circumstances right now. See, this I love Aaron Jones
5:53for Tucker Craft. Absolutely fine by me.
5:55Not looking to sell Bowers.
5:59Uh, what else sticks out? Bryce Young and Harold. I mean, yeah, dude. If I can turn Harold F. I think Harold Fannon is
6:04is kind of dead. He does not have the underlying usage that a guy like Tucker Craft has. Like if we pull this up here,
6:11where is Harold Fannon even on this list? Yeah, I mean Harold Fannon is getting similar usage to guys over the since week three, his usage is in line
6:20with Darnell Washington and Chiggo Conquo, which by the way, if Chiggo, if you have tight end issues and you can't go out and buy Tucker Craft, get a
6:27little bid in for Okonquo because once they're out back from buy, it's Okonquo, it's Stefon Diggs. I love Antonio Williams, but then there is nothing else
6:34there in terms of the passing game.
6:35Okono coming off his best game yet this season. If he's on waiverss, go grab him. Uh Isaiah likely for Craft, no sir.
6:42If someone wants to do I mean if if if Bryce Young's not starting for you every week, Bryce Young for Tucker Craft is an
6:47awesome idea. And then George Pickkins I I I got to be honest with you guys.
6:53I hate to be like as this, but as a guy who also has George Piggin in my home league, genuinely outside of the second
7:01half where CD Lamb got a quad injury in prime time versus the Bucks, he has been bad. Like George Pickkins is
7:09pushed up. I know we've had him as a buy in the past, but I think that he's genuinely like we're actually going to
7:14talk about a guy later on in T. Higgins who's valued cheaper than George Pickins. I would prefer T. Higgins straight up to George Pickkins. George
7:20Pickkins at this point. I mean, he had 11 targets last game against the Packers, but they're just so empty.
7:25They're so empty. He's never the first read. They were trailing. Maybe he gets better. I mean, you can squint and say
7:31he has had two games with 10 plus targets, not counting the one where uh CV Lamb goes down, but even like the
7:38first half, he was never even really looked at. He He's getting outproduced by Ryan Fenoy. I'm not saying to sell George Pickkins, but I am saying in a
7:46deal like this where I have like AJ Brown as a comparable player, uh, that's absolutely fine for me. But let's move
7:50on to the next Let's move on to the next uh, trade target here. We have Olly Gordon, who actually, while I'm doing
7:57this, let me pull up my rest of season rankings on the side here. Of course, if you want access to my rest of season
8:02rankings so you can go out there and make trades, make sure you sign up patreon.com/rronstewart over on the Patreon. I'll have that in
8:09the description and the comment section down below. You get my rest of season rankings, my weekly rankings, which as soon as I post this video, my weekly
8:16rankings will be out in a little bit.
8:17Uh, and then also start streams every Sunday, my waiverwire article, all of that is over there. Now, with Ollie Gordon, he is my RB 24 rest of season. I
8:27don't have him that far off. Guys like Randre Stevenson and Quinn Sean Judkins, uh, I have him ahead of Scataboo, Amarian Hampton, RJ Harvey, Blake
8:34Cororum. He's somebody that's just kind of disrespected on the open market where he was picked up off waiverss. He's seen as kind of like waiverwire fodder. I
8:43think that he's a real asset in fantasy football. Oie Gordon, he is the RB14 on RB17 usage since the Han injury. I might
8:51even be too low at RB24.
8:53Now, I will say part of my rankings are factoring in kind of like the market value and what I would have them uh at
8:59in terms of market value. So I get Ollie Gordon's not a big name. Like I said, I think that he's kind of in the same
9:04tier, like comparable to Raandre or a Quinn Sean Judkins. Like he's actually very comparable to Quinn Sean Judkins.
9:10They are both just the workhorse in bad offenses. And Ollie Gordon has actually scored fantasy points and been somewhat efficient. He's been a low success rate
9:18guy, but a big explosive run rate guy.
9:20So he's kind of a a boom bust runner, uh, which works. And then he gets all the goal line work here. He's an every
9:27top 24 running back. And this week he gets the Jets who allow the eighth most opponent adjusted fantasy points to running back. So I was saying if you are
9:34one of these guys, let's say you have James Cook on buy, you're three and three, you need a win and your running
9:39back option is like Emanuel Wilson or just Rico Dow like guys who are borderline unstartable. If you can go out there and get Oie Gordon on the
9:47cheap, I think that that would be the play, right? Like can you do can you start to look at those other those other
9:54running backs that have some trade value but aren't startable on a week- toeek basis? Right? when we're talking about uh Blake Cororm,
10:02David Montgomery, even the Vikings running backs, there's some there's some gas out there for Jordan Mason that he could come in here and take over the the
10:09starting role, which I get, but Ali Gordon is the starting running back on a similarly ranked offense. Like, the Vikings offense has not been good this
10:17year, and the Flores defense is so good that they are rarely in high-scoring affairs. Again, I'm not telling you to go out there and sell Jordan Mason for
10:25Ole Gordon straight up. I'm just saying if they're in similar tiers, I think Olly Gordon is a guy to go out
10:32there and get. Now, in terms of what he's trading for, I can't imagine it's anything crazy. It can't be it can't be
10:37anything too too bad uh out there on the market. Now, I will say I did just realize we did have a trade earlier with
10:42Bryce Young. I really hope that that was a one quarterback league. Uh Burden for Okay, so now Okay. Uh Skyoo for Ole
10:48Gordon. Easy.
10:51Yeah, I would do Derrick Henry for Jefferson and Ollie Gordon, but I'm not dying to make that move. Mike Evans for
10:56Ibuka and Ollle Gordon. Honestly, man, if you're if you're two and four and you can't afford to wait on Mike Evans, I
11:02think that that's a fine fine deal.
11:04That's a deal. We talked about this last week in terms of two for ones. If again, if you're in a tough spot, you're one
11:09and five, you're two and four, even, you know, 0 and six, the dreaded 0 and six, and you just can't afford to wait on
11:15Mike Evans to come back and you can get two paths to kind of beating Evans uh in terms of a bet. Who's to say that Mike Evans his
11:24injuries lingering whatever that Amecha Buuka the minute Baker Mayfield comes back doesn't start producing similar to Mike Evans and then you get a free Ollie
11:31Gordon on top or Ollie Gordon is just you know the RB14 rest of season and kind of looks like an early career Chuba
11:37Hubard uh if you guys can sort of remember that when he was a young player with the Panthers. Trying to think who
11:43the lead running back was who got hurt that year. Uh but maybe it was like him versus Milo Sanders. I'm not sure. Joan
11:49and Josh DS for Oi Gordon. I'd be fine with that if neither of these guys are cracking my lineup. Uh, Odun for Ollie
11:54Gordon. I would do that in a heartbeat.
11:56Waddle for Oie Gordon. God, I hate that it's gotten to this. I hate that it's gotten to this. I mean, Waddles my wide
12:02receiver 33 rest of season, man.
12:06If Waddle wasn't cracking my lineup and I was set at wide receiver and this is like a zero RB team where like a Golden
12:12emerged late, a Coker emerged late and I have no use for Jaylen Wadd.
12:17I don't hate it. I don't hate it. It's, you know, it's it's dark days when we start trading Jaylen Waddle for Ollie
12:23Gordon, but it's kind of where we're at.
12:25Now, my third trade target is a guy who I just talked about, T. Higgins. I think T. Higgins is a guy that you could have
12:30maybe bought on the by-week last week, but maybe the owner didn't want to, and then the owner gets a loss, and now the
12:34owner's two and four, and all of a sudden, everybody is on the trade block.
12:37I think T. Higgins is seen as a run-of-the-mill wide receiver 24, wide receiver 23, like a low-end, low-end wide receiver 2. I think he's closer to
12:46the top dogs in that space. Whether that's like Tedo McMillan, Matthew Golden, Christian Watson. This is somebody that was banged up in week
12:52five, drops a dud week five because of that.
12:56If you remember, I think it was against the Dolphins. Yeah, it was the Bengals versus Dolphins, drops a dud in an
13:01injured kind of like his status was essentially up in the air by week. Comes back, he's been a full participant all
13:06week long in practice. Teigans is ready to roll. And if we just take the games where he played more than 70% of
13:14the snaps. So everything everything besides I believe that's going to be week five verse the Dolphins. I do want to make sure that I have that correct
13:21here. Yeah. So week five versus the Dolphins. If you just take weeks one through four. So Tampa, Houston, Pittsburgh, Jacksonville. He is wide
13:30receiver seven in points per game at 17.8 points per game on the wide receiver 10 in usage. Now, yes, one of
13:37those games Jamar Chase got banged up in, but even then you have a game where Jamar Chase played versus Pittsburgh, 12
13:43targets for Jamar Chase. You got seven targets for T. Higgins, 90 yards, a touchdown, a 20 piece next to Jamar Chase. And we know the Bengals get
13:51hotter as the year goes on. And even even if you count the sample where he was banged up in week five, he is still
13:57the wide receiver 11 in yards per out run, the wide receiver 17 in targets per out run. His targets are always going to
14:02be a little bit lower because he operates downfield, but he's ninth in airard share. So, he's getting valuable targets. He's efficient on those
14:08targets. He has been quietly awesome this year. And the wide receivers for the Bengals have the fourth the third easiest schedule for wide receivers over
14:17their next four games when adjusting for their opponents. That's from established the run. They have Baltimore this week who is allowing the fifth most adjusted
14:24fantasy points per game when adjusting for opponents this week. I think T.
14:27Higgins is an awesome buy if the owner doesn't know what he has in T. Higgins at this point. Now, when we go from
14:36here, we can see what on the market you can get for Teigans. And I'll actually sort of uh peel back the curtain. I
14:45traded Jeremiah Love and Jawan Johnson in my home league that I'm two and four in. Hate to see it. Had Blake Groupy. I
14:52lost by three points after Blake Groupy uh tore his ACL. I then only needed like three points from Terry McLaren in prime
15:00time.
15:03That's the way she goes. I I will say any of you guys out there that had similar issues where you know you you
15:08were in a sweat from with McClord and you needed like three points uh or four points from him whatever rough rough
15:15day. Uh but and that's not even to say that Jeremiah Love is a sell like I would have Jeremiah Love and Teigans
15:20ranked similarly but I do think that there is a point where if you are one and five you're two and four you no
15:25longer have the luxury to wait on Jeremiah Love. I love Jeremiah Love. I think he's good. uh if you ended up
15:30drafting a team where in spite of Jeremiah Love, you're doing absolutely fine, but at a certain point, you might have to take what you can get to get
15:37points in the short term if he is sinking your team. Now, what can you sell for T. Higgins? Like I said, I
15:44would have T straight up over George Piggins at this point. Um I'm not selling Christian Watson, Justin Jefferson, Bejon, Swift for TE, and ETN. I can't I can't
15:56do that. AJ Brown, Addison.
15:59Uh, I would do that. I see Addison as a zero, but that's not really like a meaningful upgrade there. I would do
16:06Nico for T and Pickins if I needed wide receiver depth. Uh, Aaron Jones, Tyler Alier.
16:12Uh, I mean, obviously, but that's not on the table. Would I sell two in for T?
16:17No.
16:18Would I sell Wadd Scaboo for I mean, obviously, but that's not a real offer.
16:22See, now this one maybe is a little bit real. DJ Moore and Aaron Jones. That's perfect. That's perfect. If I had enough
16:27running back depth, right, I'm a little spooked on the Jordan Mason stuff. DJ Moore, Aaron Jones for Tegan makes a lot
16:33of sense. I would sell I don't hate that this is kind of this is selling pretty low on Michael Wilson and Rashi Rice, but I don't hate it. I'm
16:41I know we've had Michael Wilson as a buy in the past, but the last two weeks have been so discouraging. His yards per run
16:47hasn't been good this year. And Rashi Rice, I don't know, when he comes back from injury, we'll see what he looks
16:51like. But I I think that the injury for Rashi Rice is worse than they're letting on in terms of like they're calling it
16:57just a hamstring. I don't know. There looked like there looked like there was some knee action. If you walk uh watch
17:01back that clip, oh, Jacobs for T if Jacobs isn't uh going in my RB1 or RB2 spot and I need wide receiver help. I
17:07don't even mind Jacobs. I have Jacob's RB n RB20 rest of season, but I'd sell him for Teigens in a heartbeat. Uh I
17:16don't like these offers right now. I mean cuz like the issue is I'm just like these are just like fake offers and then
17:21it's like oh I have to give up puka to get into the T. Higgins conversation metaf. Okay. Like none of these are
17:27real. Uh hubard waddle.
17:32No just can't do that one. Yeah. Nothing else really sticks out. I mean obviously I would have te straight up over IA. I
17:39love this. Rashi Rice and Dobbins get I would call Rashi a cell man. I have a wide receiver 27. He's fine. But if
17:45anybody thinks that he's going to come back and be a high-end wide receiver, too, like he was drafted to be, I'm
17:50selling. Uh, all right, let's move on to our next trade target here, we have Jaylen Ward. We had him on the uh trade
17:59targets list before his huge blowup game, which was awesome. Now he comes back down to Earth. Rico Dattle comes back. Everybody is panicking. And I
18:07would be looking to buy Jaylen Warren if anyone is like, "Oh my god, it's a split. Rico D is back. It's all over."
18:14If I can buy Jaylen Warren for like RB20 price tag, right? We're talking like that Raandre range. If he starts to uh,
18:20you know, if the owner just kind of wants him off his team for whatever reason, I like to buy Jaylen Warren. He
18:26has a really nice matchup this week against the Saints who allow the most fantasy points to running backs this season. And Jaylen Warren on the
18:33Steelers. The Steelers are projected for the 11th most points this week. There's going to be touchdown upside. There's going to be fantasy points. There's
18:40going to be kind of an uptempo game as well. These are two teams that have a lot of drop backs, a lot of pass rate
18:45over expectation and we could get like six catches for Jaylen Warren and a touchdown in this game and he could end
18:50up being a monster. And while his usage wasn't amazing, it wasn't bad either.
18:54This is the utilization report from fantasylife.com. An awesome awesome tool built by Dwayne McFarland. Takes into account your snapshare, Russia time
19:03share, route share, all of that. And it spits out a score based on your usage.
19:07He was the RB15 in usage last week in terms of like role. He had 18 opportunities on a 75% snapshare. I
19:15think it's fine. He got the only goal line carry as well. I wouldn't panic. I would buy at low-end RB2 prices for me.
19:21I still ranked him as my RB 15 rest of season between Basil 2 and Bucky Irving.
19:26I think that he is a really, really strong rest of season play. And I will continue to bet on him despite Rico Dael
19:32being back. I'd like to see if anyone's panicking. I think that Jaylen Warren is one of the most traded players. No, I'm
19:37actually just talking out of my ass here. They have uh it's actually pretty cool here. They have the most traded.
19:41Oh, last 30 days most traded. But I'm telling you, I'm telling you over the last few days, he's been one of the more traded
19:49players, right? If we look here, currently most traded players.
19:53So, I am just I'm just lying.
19:59Yeah, that's my bad. I suppose I'm just lying. I I could have sworn he was on this list. Is he not 28th most drafted
20:06or traded player? All right. I mean, sort of. My bad. Uh, but let's see what he's going for. Let's see what he's
20:11going for. I can't imagine it's anything crazy.
20:14Why do Why do we got to do this? Uh, yeah. Bree for Jaylen Warren straight up, which I but I I will say Bree was
20:19almost a buy for me here. Everyone's probably spooked on Brilen Allen. Bree is still hurt. If you can buy him for
20:24super cheap, I would, but I would not buy him for Jaylen Warren. Price tag again. Rashi to get Jaylen Warren. Easy.
20:30I Oh man, this is actually much closer than the Cal is letting on here. JMO and Jeremy Bernard. If I didn't need that
20:35wide receiver depth, I would. But in a start, eight, what? Two wide receiver, two flex. You probably do need that wide
20:39receiver depth. Uh, this is a one quarterback. Trevor Lawrence, Chase B.
20:43No sir. Uh, would I give up?
20:47Wow. Garrett Wilson or Jaylen Warren?
20:50I wouldn't pay Garrett Wilson. Um, again, I would have Jaylen Warren over Saquon straight up. Would I do James Cook? No, sir. Would I do two
21:00quarterback or send him a Mahomes for J?
21:02Okay. No, thank you. In a one quarterback, I would send Drake May for Jaylen Warren if I just, you know, if I
21:07had like Jared Goff behind him or something. Sure. Uh Jaylen Warren, Tedo, McMillan. That's close, man. Give me something Give me something better. Wow,
21:16this one's actually close. Would I give Olave for Warren and J Mo?
21:21Probably not. Probably not. Would I give Pwash? No. Would I give I mean, obviously I'd give Warren and Brilen Allen, but I don't think that
21:28that's a real offer. Let's find Let's find one more that I I feel decent about.
21:33Cook for Warren and Bucky. No, that's close, but no. JT for Warren, JMO, no.
21:39Would I do I mean, that's just not the 22nd today. I mean, this guy was finessing. Uh James Cook, Chase Brown
21:47for Come on. I mean, I would do Jeremia Love for like this is actually about even. I have them back to back in my
21:54rankings pretty much. It just comes down to I think Love has more uh like week 10 through 17 upside, but I think Jaylen
22:02Warren can get you points for the next three weeks a lot more reliably. Uh man, I I wish I had something better here.
22:08Say that's not enough of an upgrade.
22:10Would I do McBride for Warren in Boston? No. But I will say I do think McBride's actually kind of a sell. The last like three or
22:18four games has hasn't been great. The whole passing offense has actually kind of struggled without Marvin Harrison.
22:22Uh, and I do have concerns about Carson Beck coming in down the stretch. Like the the Cardinals fan base has all
22:29turned on Jacobe Brassette, uh, at this point in time. But I do J Mo and Raandre, man. The Cal likes this one, but that
22:36that's the most I would pay. That's the most I would pay. Uh, but that's still even pretty steep. So maybe he's not as
22:42much of a buy low as I thought. But I'm telling you, there's somebody out there that is spooked. There is a small small
22:48window to buy low on Jaylen Warren. And then our fifth trade target here is a guy who's on buy. Stfan Diggs. Quietly
22:56one of the biggest winners of the week at my expense, Terry McLaren. I think it was a 27 yard. I hate that I even know
23:04to the yardage, but it was a 27 yard bomb. He catches that. It looks like he's going to get on a roll here out for
23:09the season. Really, really sucks. But what this means is Stfan Diggs, who remember similar to T. Higgins, banged up, sour taste in everybody's mouth.
23:18Now, of course, he did kind of he caught a touchdown on a prime time game, so he's trending upwards. But you got to
23:24remember, week three, seven PPR points.
23:26Week four, eight PPR points. Then he misses for an injury. And then this game, he plays hobbled. 61% of the snaps
23:31here, scores a touchdown. If somebody can't afford to wait for Stfan Diggs on buy, Stefan Diggs being on buy kind of
23:37puts him out of sight, out of mind at this point. But he's like T. Higgins in that he's going to rest up in this
23:42bye-week, come back fresher. He gets Philadelphia at home here. And this is somebody who is just going to be a target earner on this team, assuming he
23:51comes back healthy in three games. Now, this is 100% uh pushed up artificially by touchdowns, right? He's not going to score 23 touchdowns over a 17game
24:00sample, but but this is better. Him and Jayen Daniels clearly have a connection.
24:07He is more efficient with Jayen Daniels.
24:09He's gotten more looks in the red zone with Jaden Daniels. He's not going to average 17.9 points per game with Jaden
24:14Daniels, but I did just want to show in his three games with Jaden Daniels. 17.9 points per game. I'd probably put him
24:20more in like the 12 to 13 area, but he is firmly a high-end wide receiver three at worst rest of season. This is a really, really
24:28strong play. He's the wide receiver 14 in targets per run. He's getting hyperargeted when he is on the field.
24:32And Jaden Daniels played pretty well. He had 300 yards, two touchdowns. Now, of course, like real football. Did he have like a throwaway on fourth down and like
24:39some bad sacks here and there? Sure. But like for fantasy football, Jaden Daniels was slinging it and playing well against Sam Fran. So I think he's a nice buy low
24:46if someone can't afford to wait for Diggs off the buy. If someone thinks that he's just kind of like a banged up
24:51wide receiver for and isn't really valuing Digs highly, I think that he is one of the players on buy that you can
24:56go out there and purchase. I will say some other good players on buy to go out there and buy. Now, if you're going to
25:02buy somebody who isn't playing this week, I keep on saying buy somebody on buy. If you're want to buy somebody who
25:06can't play this week because of a by-week, you got to be four and two or better. I would say I would say four and
25:11two or better if you want to make that move. But I think Stfan Diggs qualifies there. I think DJ Moore qualifies there.
25:18Who Who else is on by weeks?
25:23I should know these off top of my head, but it's tough to the Jaguars. Parker Washington, obviously, like I said, go out there and acquire.
25:32Go out there and add Okonquo if he's out there.
25:35Maybe Rashad White. I think all of these guys have uh good candidates to go out there and trade for. Now, with Stefan
25:43Diggs on the market, this is now we're talking. Now we're talking. Paul Sutton, easy. Jordan Mason, I'll do Jordan Mason straight up for Digs. Uh, no. I'll do
25:53Davin straight up for Digs. Easy money.
25:54Brilland Allen for Stfan Diggs. Easy.
25:56So, you guys get I don't even got to go further than that. He is getting disrespected on the market. Go out
26:01there, trade for Stfan Diggs. Uh, and then our last trade targets, a quick one and an obvious one. Jordan Tyson, did I cut off his name a little funny in
26:10the graphic? Sure. This one's easy.
26:12We're seeing it now. And it's actually really nice to see after last year was kind of a disaster for rookie wide
26:17receivers. We're we're still not there.
26:19We don't have a Malik Neighbors. We don't have a Jefferson or a CD Lamb or Jamar Chase, but we're seeing Carnell
26:24Tate. We're seeing Jeremy Bernard. We're seeing Denzel Boston. We're starting to get these rookie wide receivers who are emerging and becoming fantasy football
26:32regulars. I think that could be the case for Jordan Tyson here where we are getting a lot of pass attempts and drop
26:38backs and hurry up offense for the Saints here and we're seeing them kind of fade away from Devon Vele and Jawan
26:45Johnson and of course Chris Olive is there. But I do think that Jordan Tyson I I believe he's traveling with the team
26:50to Paris this week which is huge. It means that he's close to returning. It means that they have this week overseas.
26:58He's traveling with them bi-week and then he could be back as soon as week nine. I I I don't I can't say for
27:04certain, but he should be back relatively soon. He could ramp up and this could be somebody who is genuinely getting put in your flex for the fantasy
27:10playoffs. If you guys remember, uh guys like Brian Thomas, guys like Vlad Mcconkey, uh even a guy like Jaylen McMillan when he was a rookie. These
27:18guys often times are putting your lineup down the stretch when it matters most and they end up winning leagues for you.
27:24So if you can go out there and snipe Jordan Taes, now this is again Jordan Tyson. This is again like Stefon Diggs,
27:30you got to be 4-2, 5-1, 6-0 to go out there and acquire Jordan Tyson. And I know that people keep on putting him as
27:36like a waiverwire target. If you're in a real league, he's not on waiverss. Uh but there might be a guy out there who
27:42can't afford to continue to hold on to Jordan Tyson at this point in time.
27:47again. Perfect one. If they are two and four and they need help right now, boom, take Brayan Allen. Uh, I mean, this is a
27:53this is insane. Keon Coleman, I mean, easy.
27:58That's close. But I'd probably do Judkins for Tyson in a piece, you know.
28:03Uh, Rashi Rice for Tyson and Brilan Allen.
28:06Probably can't do that one. Denzel Boston for Tyson. I don't hate it. I'd want something a little bit more. I'd want something a little bit more on top,
28:14but I don't hate that. RJ Harvey for Jordan Tyson. Easy. I mean, yeah. So, he he's free, fellas. He's free. Uh Aaron
28:20Jones for uh Michael, you're not getting Michael Wilson in return for Aaron Jones. You guys get what I'm saying?
28:25He's free. Can you give somebody a tight end who's not you're not using? Can you uh I just saw my home league. I think it
28:30was Jordan Tyson for Jared Goff because a guy had like Jared Goff, Patrick Mahomes. You guys know how it is in home
28:36leagues. Someone's going to draft two quarterbacks and they could like there might be a Jordan Love Jared Goff team out there. If that's you, can you send
28:43Jared Goff or Jordan Love and get Jordan Tyson? I know that that's like, dude, those guys are both balling. But in a
28:47one quarterback league, they don't hold much value, you know, like there's not really a reason to have both of those guys. So, I don't hate that if you're
28:55looking for flex help. But that is going to do it for us today. That is my six must buy trade targets for week seven of
29:00the fantasy football season. If you want help making these trades, you can find my rest of season rankings over on the
29:05Patreon. patreon.comrrons Stewart. I actually just recently added this a so I I have my it's essentially my top 150 rest of season rankings and
29:15it's all tiered so you can kind of see who's valued similarly right like can I trade away a tier four player to get a
29:21tier two player can I trade uh two tier four guys for a tier two player and I have it kind of uniform across all
29:27positions I used to in the past have like okay Browers is a tier one player Gibbs is a tier one player like
29:31positionally but now Gibbs is like a tier of his own and then Bowowers is more of like a tier three player so you
29:36can kind of compare apples to apples across positions with that setup. It's nothing groundbreaking, but uh I've gotten some positive feedback on it. But
29:45thank you guys for watching. As always, leave a like, subscribe if you're new, and I'll see you all in the next one.
30:03Stones like this, ice cold. Oh.
30:08around my body. Like I'm frozen.
