Theme of the Week: Always Explore Injuries
Nick Chubb's significant knee injury ripples through dynasty leagues this week. If Chubb is on a now 0-2 team, send offers for their notable players, as they could be looking ahead to 2024 already if Chubb is paired with other injuries or underperforming players. If there is any good news with Chubb's injury, it is the timing of an early-season injury, allowing more time for his surgery and recovery before Week 1 in 2024, compared to in 1-2-3 months. This is still a notable factor for Chubb, where his next significant snap in the NFL will be as a 28-year-old.
Here are a few key Chubb trades this week with him as a buy valuation and recommendation:
- Chubb for Joshua Kelley, 2024 3rd
- Chubb for Gardner Minshew, Gus Edwards (1QB)
- Chubb for 2024 3rd
- Chubb for Skyy Moore
- Chubb for 2024 3rd, 4th
