CBS Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- Week 2 of the 2026 NFL season has spurred significant overreactions in the Fantasy Football community, making it an ideal time for managers to pursue trades and improve their rosters.
- Injuries to key quarterbacks such as Giants' Jaxson Dart and Commanders' Jayden Daniels are affecting the trade values of their teammates, necessitating adjustments in player valuations.
- The CBS Sports Fantasy Football Trade Chart, created over 15 years ago and updated for various league formats, offers a long-term measurement of players' fantasy values based on expected future performance, schedules, and public sentiment rather than past performance.
- The chart assigns point values to players to help managers evaluate fair trades, advising a 10% deduction in value when one side trades two or more players for fewer players, and notes some players have value only in specific league formats like two-QB or full-PPR.
- Managers are encouraged to use this chart as a rest-of-season ranking tool and to consider players not listed as worth no more than four points, with open communication channels for questions or trade reports.
