Taking Advantage of KeepTradeCut Player Values
Like it or not, a LOT of people reference KeepTradeCut when deciding whether to do a dynasty trade or not. And, personally, I like it. The hive mind naturally skews towards player “average” outcomes, especially with this kind of voting system, while sharp gamers care most about upside (or, even better, discounted upside). This particular site also skews towards both picks and youth which can really benefit “win now” teams looking to make a deal. So I took a bit to comb through the rankings and find a couple of guys at each position that I think are a good deal. Here is a quick synopsis of the players - there are more details in the article itself.
Quarterback
- Kyler Murray QB24: Mobile QB with arguably the best weapons in the league.
- Deshaun Watson QB39: Due largely to stigma, he’s not even ranked as a starting QB when he very likely will be. Realistic chance the QB4 all time in fantasy points per game can contribute in superflex - and he’s free.
Running Back
- Javonte Williams RB21: Once a top 5 asset on this site, now outside the top 20 RBs despite being the clear RB1 for a high powered offense.
- Kenneth Gainwell RB42: They paid up to upgrade from Rachaad White to Kenneth Gainwell. He will play regardless but Bucky Irving also still has shoulder weirdness going on.
Wide Receiver
- Jaylen Waddle WR26: One of the bigger “what-ifs” so far in fantasy is getting a big opportunity with a new team while he’s smack in the age apex for the position.
- Chris Godwin WR59: I wrote an entire article on the upside for Godwin. Now that it’s been confirmed he will be in the slot for Zac Robinson, he should easily outperform his current ADP/value in all formats - dynasty, redraft, best ball.
Tight End
- Chig Okonkwo TE21: Super athletic player finally gets to pick his own landing spot in free agency. Washington paid him decent money to be their “big slot”.
- Greg Dulcich TE45: There is one last hurdle for Dulcich as the Dolphins will get ~$20M June 2 from the Bradley Chubb release. Most of that will go to rookies but need to avoid remaining free agents like Jonnu Smith or Darren Waller who have experience in Miami. But they have very few other weapons if he survives that.
Let me know what you guys think! There are a LOT of discrepancies between my rankings and that site so these are just a few - rankings have been updated for Fantasy Alarm members. Good luck out there!
