Buy Low

Jalen Coker (WR-CAR) - Forget about the undrafted free agent status. Coker is the best downfield target the Panthers have at wide receiver. For whatever reason, they did not give him starter snaps last week, but that should change now that Jonathan Mingo was traded. You can still get in on the ground floor of this possible future #1 receiver, and the Panthers are on track to draft a better long term quarterback for him next year.

Jaylen Warren (RB-PIT) - This is the corresponding take to last week's Najee Harris sell high take. Warren is the passing down back and should lead the backfield in snaps in the second half of the season against a much tougher second-half schedule. He’s healthy and well-rested, and we know how much Russell Wilson likes throwing to running backs.

Jordan Mason (RB-SF) - Mason is healthy after the bye and ready to resume the starter role if necessary. We won’t know for sure that Christian McCaffrey can handle anything near his normal workload until we see him do it, and even then, we don’t know how his Achilles will respond to that workload. Mason should be added if he was dropped and now’s your chance to get him cheap if you are going to count on McCaffrey.

Jauan Jennings (WR-SF) - The fantasy community might be underestimating Jennings' potential. He has only played one game as the starter this year and posted 11-173-3, the best line of any wide receiver in any game this season. Brandon Aiyuk is out for the year, and it’s clear that Jennings has Brock Purdy’s trust as a contested-catch receiver downfield. It’s also possible that he holds off Ricky Pearsall to remain a starter if Deebo Samuel Sr. is traded in the offseason.

Tank Bigsby (RB-JAX) - The writing is on the wall that Travis Etienne Jr. probably won’t be the Jaguars starting running back beyond next year, and maybe not even next year. The Jaguars should have a new regime that will have open competition, and Bigsby has clearly been a better runner than Etienne this year by any measure. Bigsby’s price should remain low as the Jaguars offense languishes with or without an injured Trevor Lawrence, so this could be an easier move to pursue in dynasty leagues in the offseason.

Ladd McConkey (WR-LAC) - Justin Herbert is reminding us that yes, he is indeed one of the league's best young passers, and no, Greg Roman isn’t going to keep that from shining or even being the centerpiece of the offense. McConkey is just getting started as Herbert’s favorite receiver. The Chargers haven’t had anything remotely resembling a shootout game script, and McConkey has already had a game with over 100 yards and a score. He could easily end up being one of the more valuable wide receivers of the second half of the season.

Drake Maye (QB-NE) - Watching Maye make plays as a passer and runner outside of structure is exciting because, frankly, the Patriots don’t have the players yet to give him advantages inside of structure. That will come in time, but Maye’s ability to post numbers as a scrambler puts him on a par with quarterbacks who get a lot of runs by design. The foundation for Maye’s future fantasy value is strong enough to support a profile like Josh Allen’s, but he won’t cost as much as a player with that kind of ceiling should cost in dynasty leagues right now.
