The Fantasy Trade Deadline is almost here
You should Trade for these 5 Players to save your season:
- Players I’m trying to buy now
- What I would trade for these Players
5. Jonathan Taylor (RB9)
- Josh Downs was traded to KC
- Keenan Allen was traded to SF
The trade drama is over, Jonathan Taylor is remaining put in Indianapolis for the rest of 2026..
Jonathan Taylor has scored under 10 fantasy points in consecutive weeks and the Colts just traded away their top 2 Wide Receivers..
With Alec Pierce still on IR, I’m fully anticipating Jonathan Taylor to remain a full blown workhorse RB1 ROS
What I would pay to acquire Jonathan Taylor:
A low end RB1 + small change
- D’Andre Swift/Derrick Henry
- Makai Lemon/Khalil Shakir
4. Emeka Egbuka (WR35)
- Has a Week 10 BYE
- Missed Weeks 7 + 8, scored 6.9 points in Week 9..
There’s a perfect buy low window wide open on Emeka Egbuka..
Keep in mind that Baker Mayfield is finally healthy and in Week 11 the Bucs play the Lions who allow the MOST Passing YPG (260.9) in the NFL..
Emeka Egbuka is averaging 8.6 Targets per game over his last 5 healthy games
What I would pay to acquire Emeka Egbuka:
A high end WR3 + high end RB3
- Keenan Allen/KC Concepcion
- Alvin Kamara/Rachaad White
Final thoughts on the NFL trade deadline:
- Josh Downs A+ landing spot.. he seriously feels like the Chiefs WR1
- Chiefs got Josh Downs for only a 4th and 5th.. that’s a pretty big W
- Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Texans for a 2nd + 6th is even harder to comprehend now
- Kirk Cousins to the Vikings is very ideal, their offense NEEDED so much help
- Raiders trading Kirk Cousins for a 2027 3rd is a masterclass by Raiders GM John Spytek
- Side note: Fernando Mendoza will get his 1st start, I’m so excited to see him play in Week 10
- Jacoby Brissett was never the answer, just feels like another lost season for Baltimore..
- Keenan Allen to the 49ers for a 6th feels pretty irrelevant all around
- the Bears paid 2 1st’s for Jeffrey Simmons, they’re really going for it all man
- the Titans now have 2 1st’s in 2027 and 2 1st’s in 2028.. this next draft class should be very promising
- the Jaguars have quietly spent 3 1st’s and 3 2nd’s to acquire Travis Hunter, Jordan Davis, and Nate Boerkircher..
- Jacksonville got better for sure.. but at what cost? I really don’t love these additions at this absurd price
- Colts had multiple offers on Daniel Jones.. why is he still on the roster? I’d trade him for a 2027 Day 3 pick and feel great about it
- Jonathan Taylor not getting dealt is very anticlimactic and just confusing at this point
- Indianapolis won’t be competitive for a while, why wouldn’t you sell JT for a 2nd + change? That organization is a complete nightmare
- Ja’Marr Chase with consecutive 140+ yard games.. just start triple covering him
- CeeDee Lamb put up 195 yards + 1 TD.. you just can’t guard him
- Caleb Williams is must watch TV, every arm angle throw is just mesmerizing
Week 9 thoughts:
- Matthew Golden and Christian Watson are legitimate superstars
- Jordyn Tyson was wide open in the endzone, he could’ve had a much bigger day
- the Giants should get back on the phone and trade for Jonathan Taylor
- the Colts trading 2 1st’s + AD Mitchell for Sauce Gardner is looking historically bad
- the Packers are in last place in their division.. they’re 6-3 and look terrifying
- the Saints got a massive win today, comical that they’re 3-5 and tied for 1st place in the NFC South
