Before we get to this week's targets, let's check last week's report card. Tetairoa McMillan, my favorite buy from last week, went off for 14 catches, 192 yards, and two touchdowns, finishing as the WR1 with 45.2 fantasy points. Saquon Barkley, the headliner of the Sell High section, scored 2.0 points and finished as the RB62, leaving early with an injury. I'll take that pair any week. It wasn't all good news, though. D.J. Moore was the WR87 and also left his game early after reaggravating a shoulder injury, and Bryce Young, who I told you to sell, finished as the QB6. You can't win them all, but you can keep making the right bets.

Each week this season, I'll be here to highlight the most notable players to Buy Low or Sell High, using and referencing the powerful tools and data on 4for4.com, including the Trade Evaluator. Don't make a deal in your league without consulting this tool. Fantasy football managers are a fickle bunch. Sometimes, it only takes one week's results to make us change how we value a player.

As thrilling as trading can be in fantasy leagues, it can also be really challenging. It's the one aspect of the game that varies wildly from league to league. Drafting, setting lineups, submitting waiver picks. These are all pretty standard, but not trading. It is dependent on league settings, roster requirements, available players, and even the attitudes of your competitors. That means everything you're about to read will need to be translated by you to fit your league settings. Do your best to adjust the advice to your own league and then join me for a weekly Discord chat for 4for4 subscribers, talking trades every Wednesday at 11:00 am EST.

As a baseline, this column will assume PPR scoring, passing touchdowns worth four points, and starting rosters with 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, and 1 FLEX, but you can adjust the configurations on the Trade Evaluator tool to fit your league exactly.
