#5: WR - Rome Odunze (CHI)
Odunze is an intriguing buy low that could pay dividends over the remainder of the season. Heās now got 2 straight games with 10 targets each, precious volume that hasnāt really translated to high fantasy scores. But, with games coming up against teams that are vulnerable to WRs, you could look like a genius, flipping a WR2 for Odunze.
#4: RB - Jaylen Warren (PIT)
Even during a year where Najee Harris is performing well as the RB22, Warrenās efficiency metrics are starting to stand out. Warren got double-digit carries for the third time in 5 games, and found the end zone for the first time in 2024 last Thursday against the Browns. Heās ranked higher than Harris in true yards per carry and yards per touch, and does more of the Steelersā passing game work.
#3: TE - Will Dissly (LAC)
Being the top TE option for a QB like Justin Herbert is not the worst place to be. Heās got a healthy 12 targets over the last 2 games, leading to 9 catches for 110 yards and a touchdown. A quick peek ahead at the schedule shows a very TE-friendly slate, particularly for the fantasy playoffs. So, take a shot here and you could be sitting pretty.
#2: RB - Chase Brown (CIN)
With the production Brown has put out lately, it might be tougher to swing a deal for him. But in the last 3 weeks, Brown has been the RB4, RB3, and RB9. Thatās a solid top-tier fantasy starter who has had a solid monopoly on the backfield touches since Zack Mossās injury. Heās a huge buy before the deadline, especially if his owner still thinks of him as a mid-range RB2.
#5: RB - DāAndre Swift (CHI)
Swift and the Bears have a brutal schedule for running backs coming up. They play the Lions twice, the Vikings, Seahawks, 49ers, Packers. Thatās just unfavorable. Roschon Johnson seems to be carving out more of a goal line role, which would knock Swiftās ceiling down another peg if it continues. Iām selling him.
#4: WR - Jaylen Waddle (MIA)
SELL HIGH NOW! Waddle easily had his best day of the season against the hapless Patriots on Sunday. But, before that was on a 9-game streak of 8.6 PPR points or fewer. Yuck. The Dolphins wonāt get to play the Patriots again, and have some much tougher defenses waiting for them in the coming weeks. So, flip the big game into a returnable asset.
#3: RB - Rachaad White (TB)
Yes, White got the same amount of carries as Bucky Irving in a blowout win in Week 12. He also found the end zone. But make no mistake ā Irving is the best back on the team. Whiteās efficiency issues havenāt gone anywhere in 2024, and he was even outplayed by his young teammate in the passing game. If youāre playing with anyone who still sees value in Whiteās PPR participation, get after it.
#2: TE - Sam LaPorta (DET)
A lot of us knew that LaPortaās preseason draft value was too high. But, man, this has been a rough season if you pulled that trigger. LaPorta only has 5 top-12 weeks to go along with 5 duds. Heās been relegated in the Lionsā offense and now ranks 26th in total targets. Maybe there is someone in your league still interested in the name. If so, you can still get something for him if you act now!
