Before getting into the top players to trade for and away this week, let’s revisit last week’s candidates and review their performances.
I wrote last week that Austin Ekeler was a buy low. Justin Herbert’s injury notwithstanding, Ekeler had his worst—and most confusing—performance of the season. I still think he’s much better than he’s shown, but Ekeler still hasn’t scored or finished a game with better than 3.0 YPC. I hope you bit on CeeDee Lamb and Kyle Pitts, though, as they both had their best outings of the young season.
As for the sells, I might be wrong about James Robinson. He broke 20 points, 100 yards and ran in yet another touchdown. Antonio Gibson, once again, had a poor outing salvaged by a touchdown, and we are one week closer to Brian Robinson Jr.’s return. And even though Clyde Edwards-Helaire had another productive fantasy outing, seven carries for zero yards and 14.9 fantasy points is an anomaly and not worth chasing.
