Fantasy Football Trade Value Chart: Week 2
Fantasy football draft season is certainly over with, and right now, your teams are either sitting at 1-0 and you've got a flawless record, or you're 0-1 and -- admit it -- a little panicked.
You can panic. You can gloat. You can wallow in self-doubt. But one thing is certain: during fantasy season, it's never time to get complacent with your teams. You work the waiver wire hard, and you ponder start-sit questions all week. You should be just as active in the trade market.
That can be tricky, of course, as not every fantasy player values the same football player the same way. Plus, sending an insultingly low-ball deal to initiate the back-and-forth is never a good idea. (Seriously, don't do that.)
To help, we'll be offering up our updated trade values to help you figure out whether or not you should send or accept a trade.
Keep in mind that these are entirely based on rest-of-season projections rather than gut feel or upside. Players with defined roles, frankly, can have more value than players we simply hope break out if things go their way. That especially rings true for running backs right now. The algorithms are here to remind us of that.
Also, keep in mind: these aren't my rankings or values. They're math-based values to help us make optimal decisions stemming from what is most likely to occur based on what we know now.
With all that said, here is how numberFire's algorithms value players for the rest of the season in a 12-team league.
