Updated Fantasy Football Week 6 Trade Value for Top 50 NFL Players

How are we doing, fantasy football players of the world?

We all know fantasy can be a cruel mistress. Some weeks you score the second most points in the entire league, but your opponent is No. 1. Sometimes you find your roster ravaged by injuries or engulfed in confusing running-back committees. Maybe you chose to trust in Kyle Pitts Sr. as your tight end and it took five whole weeks for that to pay off.

Whatever your plight may be, the fantasy trade value chart is here to help in your efforts to patch up that sinking ship.

Players who would be ranked in the 51-100 range have a descending trade value between six and two. Players below the top-100 range have a value of one. Trade values are based on PPR scoring, so adjust according to your league's particular scoring settings. May the fantasy points be with you!

Yes, Brock Bowers is that valuable.

Only six players in fantasy football this season—Jahmyr Gibbs (30.7 FPG), Josh Allen (28.6), Jaxon Smith-Njigba (27.9), Kenneth Walker III (27.5), Puka Nacua (25.9) and Bijan Robinson (24.2)—are averaging more points per game played than Bowers (23.7).

And he's doing it at tight end, which gives him enormous positional value. He's averaging 5.5 more points per game than the No. 2 tight end in points-per-game-played, Trey McBride. That's a bigger gap than any other position (though Allen is close at 5.3 more points per week than Brock Purdy).

Stretch it out further, and Bowers is scoring 13.4 points more points per week than the No. 13 player at the position, Harold Fannin Jr., which is extraordinary value in 12-team leagues. Compare that to Allen, who is scoring 10.8 points more per week than the No. 13 QB (C.J. Stroud).

And while injuries are always a concern, maintaining this level of production is realistic. In 32 career games, Bowers is averaging 6.25 catches, 68.3 yards and 0.46 touchdowns, which translates to 15.8 fantasy points a game. That's obviously a drop from this season's gaudy output, but Bowers also has an upgrade at both quarterback (Kirk Cousins) and in offensive scheme with Klint Kubiak as head coach this season.

In other words, you shouldn't be shocked if his current three-game tear is in fact sustainable for the rest of the season. In his three healthy games this season, he's been targeted more times (34) than any other player on the Las Vegas Raiders.

So while there's really no good reason to trade him, you better be getting an elite, elite return if you do. And if you're the buyer, expect to pay a premium.
