RB Jonathon Brooks, Carolina

Jonathon Brooks' Week 14 repeat ACL tear was such a disappointment. Brooks had his best glimpses into his potential yet in Week 13, with multiple flashes of his athleticism, elusiveness, and what is possible in the future. The next week, Week 14, Brooks tears the same ACL he just spent a year rehabbing to return to the field. This brings into question 2025 entirely for the Round 2 rookie who has now burned half of his rookie contract out of the NFL gate. Combined with Chuba Hubbard's new contract, Brooks is already at a career crossroads both on the NFL side and the dynasty lens. Considering the time value of a dynasty roster spot and Hubbard's presence, it is understandable to see contending teams moving on from Brooks for production. Here are a few example trades to highlight contending sell opportunities and non-contending buy opportunities:
