Updated Fantasy Football Week 10 Trade Value for Top 100 NFL Players
How can you not be romantic about fantasy football?
Brock Bowers put up 43.3 PPR points in his return from injury. Caleb Williams (38.7 points) and Joe Flacco (30 points) locked horns in the zaniest "leave your defense at the door" matchup of the season. Rico Dowdle (28.1 points) reemerged as an elite fantasy running back with the Chuba Hubbard platoon now a thing of the past.
This was a wild fantasy week, and it probably will have the trade market buzzing, especially with some major injuries (Jayden Daniels, Tucker Kraft) impacting teams.
And that's why the weekly trade chart exists. Along with giving you a general idea of a player's worth in trade talks, you'll also find their value above replacement player (deeper explanation here), a resource for determining how many points per week a player offers compared to a bench option. We'll also list out the 12 best flex options thus far this season based on VORP.
Any player not listed below has a value of one. The rankings were made with 12-team, PPR leagues in mind. And as always... may the fantasy points be with you!
Trade Value: 20

5. Rashee Rice, WR, Kansas City Chiefs (9.3 VORP)
6. Josh Jacobs, RB, Green Bay Packers (9.2 VORP)
7. Jaxon Smith-Njigba, WR, Seattle Seahawks (9.0 VORP)
Trade Value: 13

8. De'Von Achane, RB, Miami Dolphins (8.8 VORP)
9. James Cook, RB, Buffalo Bills (8.6 VORP)
Trade Value: 12

10. Ja'Marr Chase, WR, Cincinnati Bengals (7.8 VORP)
11. Jahmyr Gibbs, RB, Detroit Lions (7.8 VORP)
12. Amon-Ra St. Brown, WR, Detroit Lions (7.6 VORP)
13. Brock Bowers, TE, Las Vegas Raiders (7.5 VORP)
Trade Value: 11
7 of 17.jpg)
14. Trey McBride, TE, Arizona Cardinals (6.3 VORP)
15. Lamar Jackson, QB, Baltimore Ravens (6.2 VORP)
16. Drake London, WR, Atlanta Falcons (6.0 VORP)
17. Rico Dowdle, RB, Carolina Panthers (4.2 VORP)
18. Saquon Barkley, RB, Philadelphia Eagles (5.6 VORP)
19. Javonte Williams, RB, Dallas Cowboys (6.9 VORP)
In the three games where Dowdle has been the clear-cut starter, he's rushed for 519 yards and three touchdowns and caught nine passes for 95 yards and a score. That's absurd production.
Those numbers alone would have him higher on the chart than this, though we're projecting that he won't be able to maintain that level of absurd production going forward. He is absolutely a RB1 the rest of the way now, however, after definitively supplanting Chuba Hubbard in Carolina's backfield.
Trade Value: 10
8 of 17.jpg)
20. Josh Allen, QB, Buffalo Bills (5.6 VORP)
21. Kyren Williams, RB, Los Angeles Rams (5.5 VORP)
22. Bucky Irving, RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7.6 VORP)
23. CeeDee Lamb, WR, Dallas Cowboys (2.0 VORP)
24. D'Andre Swift, RB, Chicago Bears (5.5 VORP)
25. Patrick Mahomes, QB, Kansas City Chiefs (5.3 VORP)
Lamb's VORP is hurt by the game he left early, leaving fantasy players with zero points in Week 3, but his lowest output in PPR formats when healthy is 14.6 points. Take away the game he left early and his VORP is 4.9, putting him comfortably in this range of trade value.
Trade Value: 9
9 of 17.jpg)
26. Jaxson Dart, QB, New York Giants (4.7 VORP)
27. Dallas Goedert, TE, Philadelphia Eagles (4.5 VORP)
28. Jake Ferguson, TE, Dallas Cowboys (4.4 VORP)
29. Ashton Jeanty, RB, Las Vegas Raiders (4.1 VORP)
30. Jalen Hurts, QB, Philadelphia Eagles (4.1 VORP)
Trade Value: 8
10 of 17.jpg)
31. Jaylen Warren, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers (3.7 VORP)
32. Breece Hall, RB, New York Jets (3.5 VORP)
33. Davante Adams, WR, Los Angeles Rams (3.5 VORP)
34. Drake Maye, QB, New England Patriots (3.5 VORP)
35. Justin Jefferson, WR, Minnesota Vikings (2.4 VORP)
36. Garrett Wilson, WR, New York Jets (3.5 VORP)
37. Quinshon Judkins, RB, Cleveland Brown (3.4 VORP)
38. Justin Herbert, QB, Los Angeles Chargers (3.3 VORP)
39. Dalton Kincaid, TE, Buffalo Bills (3.3 VORP)
40. Tyler Warren, TE, Indianapolis Colts (3.3 VORP)
41. Travis Etienne Jr., RB, Jacksonville Jaguars (3.1 VORP)
42. Michael Pittman Jr., WR, Indianapolis Colts (3.1 VORP)
It feels wild to type the words "Justin Jefferson is a buy low candidate," but he's yet to be the truly elite fantasy option we've seen in the past. A prolonged stretch with J.J. McCarthy might remedy that, however.
A savvy fantasy player isn't going to sell on Jefferson, considering he's been a high-end WR2 option this year and has an elite pedigree. But it can't hurt to put out some feelers.
Trade Value: 7
11 of 17.jpg)
43. Travis Kelce, TE, Kansas City Chiefs (2.9 VORP)
44. Derrick Henry, RB, Baltimore Ravens (2.8 VORP)
45. Matt Stafford, QB, Los Angeles Rams (2.6 VORP)
46. Oronde Gadsden, TE, Los Angeles Chargers (2.6 VORP)
47. Chase Brown, RB, Cincinnati Bengals (2.4 VORP)
48. Bo Nix, QB, Denver Broncos (2.4 VORP)
49. Emeka Egbuka, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2.3 VORP)
50. A.J. Brown, WR, Philadelphia Eagles (FLEX 7)
51. George Pickens, WR, Dallas Cowboys (4.8 VORP)
52. Daniel Jones, QB, Indianapolis Colts (2.3 VORP)
53. Sam LaPorta, TE, Detroit Lions (2.2 VORP)
54. Caleb Williams, QB, Chicago Bears (2.2 VORP)
Do we fully trust Williams, given his jump in this week's trade chart is down to a 38.7-point week against the hapless Bengals that came after two straight no-shows from the young quarterback?
No, not completely.
But he's also undeniably talented, loaded with playmakers and has the innovative Ben Johnson calling his plays. A bit more consistency would be nice, but the upside here is undeniable.
Pickens and Brown look like outliers at this value, but the former's value has normalized since the return of Lamb, while the latter has seen his production start to return to expected values as the Eagles find their footing under first-year offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo.
Trade Value: 6
12 of 17.jpg)
55. Chris Olave, WR, New Orleans Saints (1.0 VORP)
56. David Montgomery, RB, Detroit Lions (1.5 VORP)
57. J.K. Dobbins, RB, Denver Broncos (1.4 VORP)
58. Dak Prescott, QB, Dallas Cowboys (1.4 VORP)
59. DeVonta Smith, WR, Philadelphia Eagles (1.3 VORP)
60. Jordan Addison, WR, Minnesota Vikings (1.4 VORP)
61. Quentin Johnston, WR, Los Angeles Rams (1.0 VORP)
62. Kyle Pitts Sr., TE, Atlanta Falcons (1.0 VORP)
Olave could be a beneficiary of the Saints trading Rahim Shaheed to the Seattle Seahawks (so could Sam Darnold on the other side of that trade, who doesn't quite make the chart but is a nice buy-low option if you're hurting at quarterback).
At this point, the Saints don't really have another great option at receiver, so Olave should be even more of a targets magnet and should be on your radar as a potential trade target.
Trade Value: 5

63. Keenan Allen, WR, Los Angeles Chargers (0.9 VORP)
64. Harold Fannin Jr., TE, Cleveland Browns (0.8 VORP)
65. Jaylen Waddle, WR, Miami Dolphins (0.7 VORP)
66. Rome Odunze, WR, Chicago Bears (0.4 VORP)
67. Deebo Samuel, WR, Washington Commanders (0.4 VORP)
68. Courtland Sutton, WR, Denver Broncos (0.3 VORP)
69. Zay Flowers, WR, Baltimore Ravens (0.3 VORP)
70. RJ Harvey, RB, Denver Broncos (0.3 VORP)
71. DK Metcalf, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers (0.1 VORP)
72. Hunter Henry, TE, New England Patriots (0.1 VORP)
73. Tee Higgins, WR, Cincinnati Bengals (FLEX 1)
74. Ladd McConkey, WR, Los Angeles Chargers (FLEX 2)
75. Nico Collins, WR, Houston Texans (FLEX 3)
Trade Value: 4

76. Tre Tucker, WR, Las Vegas Raiders (FLEX 5)
77. Romeo Doubs, WR, Green Bay Packers (FLEX 4)
78. Wan'Dale Robinson, WR, New York Giants (FLEX 6)
79. Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Arizona Cardinals (FLEX 8)
80. Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Carolina Panthers (FLEX 9)
81. Rashid Shaheed, WR, New Orleans Saints (FLEX 12)
82. Khalil Shakir, WR, Buffalo Bills (FLEX 10)
83. Stefon Diggs, WR, New England Patriots (FLEX 11)
With Jakobi Meyers traded to Jacksonville, Tucker is the clear No. 1 wideout in Las Vegas. Bowers remains the focal point of the passing offense, but Tucker should see at least a slight bump in production going forward. If you need another option in the flex spot, put out some feelers for Tucker.
Trade Value: 3

84. Aaron Jones Sr., RB, Minnesota Vikings
85. Kareem Hunt, RB, Kansas City Chiefs
86. Kenneth Walker, RB, Seattle Seahawks

88. Troy Franklin, WR, Denver Broncos
89. DJ Moore, WR, Chicago Bears
90. Tyrone Tracy Jr., RB, New York Giants
