Dynasty Fantasy Football Trades to make week 1
Koop: RB Kaleb Johnson, Pittsburgh Steelers
Have we not learned anything from the past? In 2023, De’von Achane opened the season under Salvon Ahmed on the depth card of the dolphins. Bijan Robinson was technically behind Cordarrelle Patterterson in Atlanta. Last year Tyrone Tracy Jr. Behind Eric Gray in the road room of the Giants.
As Steve Rogers said, “I can do this all day.”
At the moment, the Patriots have mentioned Treveyon Henderson as their RB3 after Antonio Gibson, and nobody loses about it. Yet there is somehow panic on the street because Kaleb Johnson is the RB3 on the depth card of the Steelers behind Kenneth Gainwell. Real?
Let’s really become real. Gainwell had four full seasons behind the Elite offensive line of Philadelphia and produced a pedestrians 4.2 yards per Carry with only 12 touchdowns. Fantasy managers are really afraid that Johnson can’t beat it That out for early down work? Come on. Gainwell is a change in a breakdown that gets a few touches per game. Nothing anymore.
The actual competition for Johnson is Jaylen Warren, who has just signed an extension of two years. Warren is a solid, efficient runner with a career 4.8 YPC. But he has never been a workhorse, on average only 7.2 wears per game. Even if he crawls up to 10 per competition, most of its value comes through the air, where he has drawn 127 receptions for three seasons.
And those catches matter, because he just doesn’t score: only six touchdowns in 48 career games. Yikes.
Kaleb Johnson’s advanced statistics
I love Warren as a complementary piece, but make a mistake by the man who have chosen the steelers by hand to replace Najee Harris. They had no pick in the second round because of the sending of the DK Metcalf, so Johnson was their second highest design capital investment, in round 3.
Johnson is not a burner; His game is strength and physicality. He flourished with his upright style in the one-cut schedule of Iowa in 2024, bull-box defenses for 1,537 Yards and 21 TDs. Johnson is number 2 in escape recruiters (861), no. 4 in yards after contact (1,060) and forced 66 missed tackles. And he did all that without fiddling with football.
If managers in your dynasty competition are torn by a meaningless depth graph for the season, this is the time to stop. See if you can buy it for a single second round pick. If a competition has him, they might prefer a win-now veteran such as Stefon Diggs or Darnell Mooney Plus a third.
Do not send a first for him during this buy-low window, but if you can create Johnson with a discount, you could land a future workhorse before his price nails.
Sales: Wr Jameson Williams, Detroit Lions
The hype around the attack of the Detroit Lions achieved a fever this season. Apparently we will see:
The only member of this attack to which the fantasy community is for some reason is in fact two-time All-Pro Wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown, who ended as the WR3 generally in back-to-back seasons. I think we have just become bored with him that he has casually set up 110+ catches, 1200+ meters and 10+ TDs every season.
Enter Jameson Williams.
Jameson Williams’ Advanced Statistics
On top of all those other predictions, is the loudest story that is now being pushed that Williams will make a huge leap forward“ Produce St. Brown and get up to the WR1 status in 2025.
‘Do you know for sure?!?“
Look, Williams had a solid season 2024. He placed 1,001 meters on just 58 receptions and an average of 14.2 ppr ppg, good for WR23. But the underlying use was not great. He only ranked:
- 34th in Snap Share
- 36th in Routes Run
- 39th in red zone goals
- 42nd in the first reading goals
- 44th in Dominator Rating
He only had 91 total goals and a medium share of 18.9%. His fantasy finish was fed by efficiency and splashing games, no volume. To match what St. Brown is already doing three consecutive seasons, Williams should earn three plus extra goals per game and there is no guarantee that happens only because Ben Johnson left the city.
Johnson’s absence does not even predict it well for this attack that stays on top of the mountain. Last year the Lions scored the fourth points in the NFL history and picked up a stunning 68 attacking touchdowns. It is difficult to imagine that type of production is stable, especially with the new attacking coordinator John Morton who is now playing. Morton has only been an NFL-Play-caller once in 2017 with the jets and he was fired after just one season. Less TDS means fewer fantasy points. Quite simple.
And don’t forget the luggage of Williams: a gambling suspension from 2023, a PED suspension from 2024 and a torn ACL that enters the competition. He is a risky asset with that CV.
Add it all and I don’t buy the WR1 Hopium. If someone is in your competition and is willing to pay WR1 prices, you should sell. Currently Goalkeeper (KTC), players who are just under Williams, include Kenneth Walker, Breece Hall, Bryce Young, Matthew Golden and George Pickens.
I would take one of them about Williams. If you can turn it around for one of those players, or a future first and a second, do it, before the efficiency control and offensive stirs have its value at the point.
Hold: Young Back -up Quarterbacks
In particular, I think that Anthony Richardson, Tyler Shegh and Shedeur Sanders. At the moment the dynasty value for these guys is in the dumps. But that can change hastily.
Take Richardson. He lost the running track of Daniel Jones, but we have seen five years of Jones and his mediocrity. His best season since his smoking year 2019? Only 3,205 passing yards and 15 TDs. He is not the long-term answer for the Colts or someone else in that regard.
The advanced statistics of Anthony Richardson
There is a very good chance that Richardson will start this year with competitions for the Colts, or for another team, because there have been rumors that they are exploring an exchange. Still only 23 years old, the athletic profile of Richardson is outside the charts – he was literally the most athletic QB in NFL Combine History. If he gets his chance again, it will only be his advantage that makes managers enthusiastic again.
Then there is Shegh, who have just taken the saints 40th. He will be 26 later this month, so he is old as dirt for a rookie, but new head coach Kellen Moore chose him so early. He must have had fun what he saw.
The advanced statistics of Tyler Shegh
Spencer Rattler is the starter for the time being, but how long does that really last? The Saints project to become a Bottom-Tier team, and the Rattler smoking year was not exactly inspiring: he placed a completion rate of 57 percent, four touchdowns and five intercepts in six starts. If the losses accumulate, Shegh gets his shot.
And that brings us to Sanders. I previously mentioned Steve Rodgers – the old man version of him at the end of Avengers: End game Currently starts for the browns. Joe Flacco was a nice story a few years ago, but at the age of 40 he is clearly not the future in Cleveland. As soon as the team starts to lose inevitably, they will make a change.
From now on Dillon Gabriel is the QB2 of the browns, but he profiles more as a long-term backup at the pro-level, mainly because of his shape. Kyler Murray looks down on him. Gabriel will eventually get a few starts, but I think his starting government will be … Short.
Sanders gets the chance to audition for the starting role of 2026, probably towards the end of the season when the fans shout around him.
The point is that all these players probably start games in 2025. Hold until that happens. Their time as ‘the boys’ can be limited, so use that window to come out of them if you do not believe in their long -term prospects.
