Dave Richard's Fantasy football trade value chart for Week 7
CBS Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- After Week 7, Fantasy Football teams with fewer than six losses are considered contenders, with those having two or fewer losses aiming for a championship run and those with three to five losses adopting a win-now approach.
- Contenders pursuing a championship will try to acquire superstar players through two-for-one or three-for-one trades from win-now teams, which can yield quality starters in exchange for elite players.
- The Fantasy Football Trade Chart, created by CBS Sports over 15 years ago, helps managers evaluate fair trades by assigning point values to players based on expected future performance, schedules, and public sentiment rather than past performance.
- The Trade Chart includes values for quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends across different league formats (e.g., half-PPR, four-point passing TD leagues), and advises a 10% value deduction when one side trades two or more players for fewer players.
- Players not listed on the Trade Chart are generally valued at four points or less, and managers are encouraged to provide feedback or trade reports to improve future editions of the chart.
