Fantasy Football Trade Analyzer: Players to trade away/for ahead of Week 3

Capitalize on the fantasy football trade market in your leagues with these trade targets and players to trade away ahead of Week 3.

Dobbins has over 130 rushing yards in each of his first two games. He currently leads the NFL with 266 rushing yards, and it doesn’t stop there, as Dobbins ranks No. 1 in rushing EPA and is eighth in success rate according to NFL Pro.

It’s clear he’s been great; I can’t argue with that. But he’s currently a red-hot asset who likely won’t finish the season as the RB1 in fantasy. Right now, Dobbins is still splitting a backfield with Gus Edwards, and even if that doesn’t continue Dobbins’ stock is likely the highest it’s going to be all year. Why is that you ask? Well, he faces the Steelers defense in Week 3.

Sell high on Dobbins for someone like Chris Olave if you can. Speaking of which …

Olave is someone you want to be trading for in your fantasy leagues. After a poor Week 1 where he scored just three fantasy points, Olave bounced back in Week 2, dropping 88 total yards on six targets. However, it only translated to 10.8 points so you may be able to buy low still.

The Saints offense is dialed in right now. Their o-line looks much better than expected and new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak has been near flawless as a play-caller. Through two games, Olave has earned a solid 21% target share, and his play-action target rate has more than doubled compared to 2023 according to Fantasy Life.

Expect the monster weeks that Rashid Shaheed and Alvin Kamara have had to balance out and for some of those to go to Olave. Try to trade for him if you can.

The best buy high in all of fantasy football is Bowers.

I think we overthought what his role in this offense would be. Let’s just look at the facts. Bowers was the best TE in college football at the highest level in the SEC for the past three years. He was elite at…
