Fantasy Football Buy Low & Sell High Players
Week 2 Buy Low Targets
Who do you see as the most compelling buy-low target for Week 2, and what would you give up to acquire him?
Dak Prescott (QB – DAL)
“I’m keen on targeting Dak Prescott this season. The trade for Micah Parsons solidifies my decision, as this suggests he’ll need to increase his passing volume. Plus, CeeDee Lamb is unlikely to drop four passes again, and Javonte Williams probably won’t score twice on the ground either. I would consider trading away lesser QBs with strong stats, like Daniel Jones, to acquire Dak.”
– Tim Metzler (FantasyPros)
Ja’Marr Chase (WR – CIN)
“If you can snag Ja’Marr Chase at a lower price, do it. I’m also interested in Terry McLaurin, who seems undervalued despite last week’s struggles. He may bounce back, and I’d be willing to trade players like Emeka or Deebo to grab him.”
– Brandon ‘B_Don’ Myers (Razzball)
A.J. Brown (WR – PHI)
“For Week 2, A.J. Brown tops my buy-low list. His poor Week 1 showing can be attributed to a hamstring issue. Given his talent and position in a pro-passing scheme, there’s a good chance he’ll bounce back. I would consider trading mid-tier WRs like Jaxon Smith-Njigba for him.”
– Aaron St Denis (Fantasy Sports Advice Network)
Kenneth Walker III (RB – SEA)
“Kenneth Walker III emerged as a key buy-low candidate after an underwhelming Week 1. His owners may panic due to lower stats and Zach Charbonnet’s emergence. Now’s the perfect moment to acquire him without paying a premium, trading a player who unexpectedly overperformed.”
– Luke Renton (The Franchise Tag UK)
All the WR1s
“Consider approaching owners of top receivers who had a lackluster Week 1, such as Ja’Marr Chase or A.J. Brown. They represent a great opportunity to trade your mid-range players for proven stars while their value is down.”
– Ellis Johnson (FantasyPros)
Week 2 Sell High Candidates
Who stands out as your favorite sell-high target after Week 1, and what would you aim to receive in return?
Michael Pittman Jr. (WR – IND)
“Michael Pittman had a standout Week 1, but I doubt he can maintain this level of performance consistently. Now is the time to sell while he’s hot, targeting players like AJ Brown who are undervalued after a slow start.”
– Tim Metzler (FantasyPros)
