Fantasy Football Trade Value Chart: Week 1
Just because the fantasy football season hasn't started yet doesn't mean you can't be active in the trade market.
Navigating trades 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. 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 from our projections system to help us make optimal decisions stemming from what is most likely to occur.
With all that said, here is how numberFire's algorithms value players for the rest of the season in a 12-team league.
