Dynasty Trade Value Chart: January

January is one of the slowest months on the dynasty calendar, but it does give us an opportunity to re-calibrate our rankings and dynasty values as we look ahead to 2023. A big focus of this month’s article will be to look ahead at how old each player will be entering the 2023 season and how that is likely to impact their dynasty value once everyone else fully factors that in. To that end, each player's age as of September 2023 will be included on the value charts you see below to help conceptualize how much more production we can expect from each player moving forward. We are also still learning about players. While whatever happens over the next month-plus will not have any direct impact on our dynasty teams, and we do not get fantasy points for playoff production, the performance of players in the most important games provides major insight into what we should expect moving forward. This is especially true of the quarterback position, and we will spend some extra time in this month’s article discussing what the playoffs might mean for the future of a number of young quarterbacks.

The dynasty trade value chart is tailored to 12-team PPR leagues a starting lineup of one quarterback, two running backs, three wide receivers, one tight end, and one flex. It now also includes trade values for Superflex leagues in a separate column. The chart is meant to serve primarily as a guide for trades but can also be a great resource during startup drafts. If the players and picks on each side of the trade offer add up to approximately the same number, the trade would be considered even. If you receive a trade offer that sends you players with a higher total number value than the players you are giving up, the offer is worth strongly considering. Each league is different, so pay close attention to the scoring and starting roster requirements specific to your league.
