Fantasy Football Trade Analyzer: Players to trade for/away ahead of Week 4

Capitalize on the fantasy football trade market in your leagues with these trade targets and players to trade away ahead of Week 4.

Tee Higgins returned from a hamstring injury in Week 3. There were some worries around if he’d been limited in his first game back from injury, but he wasn’t. Higgins immediately played 90% of the snaps and ran a route on 95% of Burrow’s dropbacks.

This was solid usage for his first game back, but it led to just three catches for 39 yards on six targets as Ja’Marr Chase stole the show with 118 yards and two touchdowns. This big game from Chase has created a buy-low window on Higgins.

Higgins spent most of 2023 battling injuries; his WR40 finish last season isn’t a fair representation of his talent and skillset. According to RotoViz, Higgins averages over 14 points per game in his career with Joe Burrow. Try to trade someone like Xavier Worthy or Devin Singletary for Higgins.

The Panthers offense looked much better with Andy Dalton as their QB. Carolina scored on 64% of their drives in Week 3, compared to just 12% of their drives the first two games with Bryce Young. Now is the time to buy low on Brooks.

There is optimism Brooks could return as soon as Week 5 off the PUP list. Deepak Chona, a Harvard-trained sports surgeon, estimates Brooks would be 85% healthy upon return based on his data analysis and back to a full workload by Week 9. This makes it the perfect time to buy low in him before he returns and starts producing.

It will likely take a few weeks for Brooks to ramp up, but it’s worth the wait. He is a talented prospect who averaged over 155 yards per game in his final eight college starts. Brooks is a big back who can do it all — pass-protect, catch passes and run between the tackles. I’d look to trade Chuba Hubbard off his big game directly for Brooks. You can also deal…
