I know a lot of people aren't going to panic and make moves. But some people are. Even on this board full of sharks, there are a lot of strong week 1 reactions.

Who are you targeting? Who are you selling?

Buy:
QB: Dak, Goff, Burrow

RB:
Kyren: Usage was great. Just a tough defense. Only 12 half PPR points after all of the Corum talk. If an owner isn't looking to closely...

WR:
Flowers: They obviously want to get him the ball a lot. The O-line is bad so they have to get it out quickly.
Tank Dell: Diggs had 2 TD's, Dell had more targets. Dell is the better long term play
Diontae Johnson: Young will target him short a million times similar to Theilen last year. Bad matchup vs Saints and Lattimore.
Brian Thomas Jr: Dude is for real. Overpay today is an underpay tomorrow.

TE:
Everyone except Likely or Pitts. Bowers probably not a buy low after his solid start. But I would buy cheap enough.

Sell:
QB:
I personally don't believe in Richardson staying top 5, so I would shop him. I know a lot of people are bullish on him.


RB:
Aaron Jones. Coming off a good matchup. Still worry about him staying healthy

WR:
Diggs: 2 TD's saved him. 6 for 33 tells the real story. I would get out while there's name value and 2 TD's to boost him.
Xavier Worthy: I believe in the speed/talent long term. But 2 TD's week 1, we're at a high point. I'd find someone that's got FOMO and see how high they're willing to pay.

TE:
Likely: Probably just had his best game. I'd at least see what you can get.
Pitts: Cousins does not look ok.

Sorry for implying a Sybil reference
 
Andrews was doubled an insane amount supposedly. Do people really think Likely will be a TE1? Is there a universe where they both go off together?

I have Pitts and want to make a move for Likely, but am a bit nervous he is fools good (Similarly to Pitts).
 
Likely: Probably just had his best game.
I would say he probably had his highest reception total and yards but I would guess he has a couple multi TD games so in terms of his overall fantasy production I believe he has some bigger games out there.
It's possible.

I don't think his trade value is any higher the rest of the season.

With the TE landscape as it is, Likely is a fantasy starter at this point. He is a weapon they will use and will get targets every week. I think Andrews will have some big games but with the way they utilized Likely and his dynamic athleticism I don't see how they could go away from him as he fits well with what Jackson does well. I think there is a universe where both Andrews and Likely can be startable (and worth it) each week.

If Love hadn’t got hurt I might want Tucker Kraft more. Andrews won’t be double covered every week, especially with the Isaiah Likely footprint.

I don’t agree with selling Diggs. He very well could lead that team in receptions and touchdowns. I think the three Texans WR’s will take turns having big games and I predict that none of them will finish in the top 8–but that they will all finish in the top 25-30. I also do not agree with selling aaron jones. I think that both he and Chandler are solid backs that are worth holding. If Jordan Addison is hurt, I could see them relying on the run game even more.

You're not selling them for free. You're getting a comparable player with less question marks. Don't cut them.

Diggs: I've been a non-believer all off-season. 5 for 33 doesn't make me feel better. TD's can be fluky.

Jones: Keep in mind they played the Giants. I don't think they're going to win a lot of football games. I don't think they have a great Run blocking O-Line. And the main issue with Jones--can we trust his health?

But again, this isn't "go cut Diggs from your roster." This is "see if you can Trade Diggs for someone you liked similarly or a little more in the pre-draft process."

Some people think 2 TD's week 1 answer all the question about Diggs. Those are the people I'm selling him to.

Unless I can get a marketable upgrade from either of those guys—I wouldn’t trade them. Let me ask you this—name me two players that you think Diggs owners should target and two players that you think Jones owners should target. I assure you Amon Ra owners aren’t trading him for Diggs. I doubt that Chase owners are selling this early for Diggs—and it’s not like Davante Adams is more trustworthy than him.

I personally had Diggs at like WR30. I think yesterday was a good day for him. I don't know that he catches 2 TD's in a single game all year. And 5 for 33 is a concern when I was already so down on the guy. He was 3rd on the team in targets. He's not the same guy from 2022 and the 1st half of 2023. Chase and ARSB aren't even in the realm of realistic.

I would go after Olave and MHJ, maybe Garret Wilson if he's quiet tonight. I doubt Evans or Waddle owners are looking to part ways, but that's more along the lines of what I think a realistic move is.
 
Only one I am selling is Etienne. This guy is complete garbage, is never used in the passing game, fumbles on the goal line, and is in a 50/50 split with Bigsby. Really disappointing career for this guy.
 
Not really a buy low, but B. Hall.

Against a tough as nails run D, and with a fumble, he still churned out 18+ PPR points last night.

And up until garbage time, NOBODY gave him a breather. Unreal.

He's going to be a beast in easier matchups. I want him. Hoping the owner was a little disappointed in last night's performance.

ETN still got 73% of snaps vs 32% for Tank. I didn't see the game. Was it more balanced in the 2nd half or after the big fumble?

You're one, really good punched out fumble at the GL away from having a different point of view.

You mean I am one-half of an NFL season and one punched out fumble...
 
Even Drew Sample is a buy? 🤔

I do think Gesicki is a buy with the end zone target (though monitor if Erick All starts getting in the mix - kid is gonna be a good one and with Tanner Hudson fumbling away a TE we might see the Iowa rookie get some looks which could make Gesicki a sell high come midseason)

Stevenson for NE is a buy. I mean I don't think the line will have the easy time it has against my Bengals but he is clearly the centerpiece there.

Bucky Irving of the Bucs did a lot with the handful of carries he got - I would not love to be a White owner right now.

What the???

RB 3 in half-ppr last year. Scored 12 TDs total and had 70+ targets last year. Zero fumbles last year. Had 70% of the snaps this game.

"complete garbage" is a wild overstatement.

If your league members are thinking this way I'd be buying Etienne. He's going to be the starter all year.

Pretty perfect list here.

Only 2 buy lows I don't believe in are Burrows, and Andrews. See them both having down seasons.

Well it's pretty obvious you just don't care for him. That's fine. Just don't understand why he's even on your team then.
 
I wouldn't buy Burrow unless he were free

I dont think he's a top 12 QB this year between the contract drama of his targets and a very uncertain injury
As a Burrow owner, gotta agree with this. Chase was seemingly never going to get the contract two years out and on top of the Higgins contract drama, just seems like this isn't a quick fix in-season.

Burrow and Chase need to be free of Zac Taylor. So gross.
 
I drafted this player in both of my leagues because I felt like he was a “draft low”—and I think after week 1 that he is a buy low for people that don’t have him rostered. We just saw in Jordan mason what the value of a very talented back up running back can be. Tyler Allgier is to Bijan Robinson as Jordan Mason is to C-Mac. The Falcons are going to use Bijan very heavily—which means he could very well get hurt. I also think that after week 1, that the Falcons will go out of their way to involve more of their talented players—Drake London, Allgier. I think that Bijan owners that don’t own Allgier should maybe consider making some moves for him.
