If you are looking to buy, sell, or trade some of your fantasy Serieskumparaktechcrunch, then you need to pay attention to the fantasy trade value of the players. Having a good idea of how much money you can expect to make in your transaction will help you decide whether it’s worth it.
Lamar Jackson
Lamar Jackson’s fantasy trade value has taken a beating over the last two months. He’s averaging just 15.6 points per game over the last six weeks and is ranked outside the top 10 quarterbacks in fantasy scoring.
He’s also been a big loser in superflex formats on FantasyCalc. His stats don’t seem to be rising, and his fantasy value has dropped by 25%.
He’s not quite as bad as the rest of the quarterbacks in the league, but he’s had some hiccups in the passing department. He’s not getting the best looks from his receivers, and he’s not using the right complementary pieces to help him out.
Melvin Gordon
When you are evaluating Melvin Gordon’s fantasy trade value, it is important to keep in mind that his role is likely to be reduced this year. However, if the Chiefs are looking for a high-octinson weapon for the stretch run, Gordon III could provide that.
In addition to his role as a lead back, Gordon is likely to have a role in the passing game. He has already fumbled four times on the season, and his ball security issues could lead to him losing his lead-back role. If this continues, he might be sent to waivers.
Christian McCaffrey
Christian McCaffrey has become a staple in Fantasy Football leagues around the country. He is one of the most productive running backs in the game and has been a top five pick in countless drafts over the years. This season, McCaffrey has been a workhorse in Carolina’s offense. He carries the ball for a solid average of 4.6 yards per carry and is a threat in the passing game.
In a lot of Fantasy Football leagues, McCaffrey was a great value. He was a high-upside runner and one of the best weapons for veteran quarterback Lance Mountain. With this trade, McCaffrey is headed to San Francisco, where he will play a major role in the team’s rushing attack.
Jacobs
Jacobs has had a great start to the 2022 season. He has shown consistency and has the potential to become a high-end top-12 back in the coming seasons. This makes him a worthy trade candidate.
However, his future is murky. He is entering the last year of his rookie contract, and the Raiders have declined his fifth-year option. They will probably get a third-round pick back from the compensatory formula, but they don’t expect to get a first-round pick for him.
The question is whether he can keep his value afloat in a new team. He might have a role on a high-powered offense, but he may not see much in the passing game.
Kevin Chapman
Kevin Chapman is a legitimate fantasy star, but his trade value is not a lot. A few years ago, the Oakland Athletics traded Josh Donaldson to Toronto for a haul of prospects. The deal didn’t pan out.
Chapman has since shown a bit of a decline. However, his defensive capabilities and arm still remain. He is a capable back-up catcher and reliever. His bat can be a nice complement to a lineup that includes Cavan Biggio and Vlad Guerrero, Jr.
The Blue Jays are rebuilding, and they’re taking a few steps to address the glaring hole in their third base department. That’s a win for the future.
J.T. Realmuto
If you haven’t already seen, Realmuto was traded from the Miami Marlins to the Philadelphia Phillies yesterday. This is a huge move, as the two-way catcher has been a solid player for years.
The Philadelphia Phillies are a powerhouse offense. They are on pace to have the most home runs and RBIs in MLB history. They also are on pace to score 7.6 Rbi per game. This has been a huge reason why the Phillies have not gone completely bust in the last five years.
It’s no secret that the catching position is a difficult one to manage. The thinness of the offensive talent makes it difficult for teams to have quality options. That means that a lot of players end up as wasted roster spots.
J.A. Kiner-Falefa
If you are looking to move the Rangers’ multi-positional infielder Isih Kiner-Falefa to a team in need of third basemen, you have a few options. A trade to the Blue Jays is a possibility, as is a move to the A’s. The Yankees are a different story, as their position needs an addition by subtraction. That’s why the Twins’ Mitch Garver, a potential left-handed bat, will go to Texas.
Finally
In terms of fantasy trade value, this is a deal that’s not too much of a risk. Kiner-Falefa’s value is limited, but he’s an excellent glove and a decent hitter. If he performs well at third, his upside could be high.
