Summary

Dive into our latest Dynasty Nerds Podcast episode, where hosts Garret and Andrew break down key players to trade for in superflex leagues as we hit the second half of the season. We're zeroing in on quarterback, running back, and wide receiver options with prime playoff schedules to boost your shot at fantasy championships. From Daniel Jones crushing tough matchups like Denver and the Chargers while ranking as QB7 in fantasy points per game, to Sam Darnold delivering steady QB2 production with favorable spots against Indianapolis, the Rams, and Carolina. At running back, Jaylen Warren stands out as a PPR beast with 14.5 points per game and a seventh-easiest rest of season slate, facing soft run defenses like Cincinnati, Miami, Buffalo, and Baltimore. Bucky Irving brings explosive upside in Tampa's humming offense, especially with dream championship matchups against Carolina and Miami despite his recent injuries. For wide receivers, Ricky Pearsall offers value as a young talent in San Francisco's improving attack, with the fifth-easiest playoff run including Tennessee, Indianapolis, and Chicago. Jordan Addison rounds it out as a consistent producer for Minnesota, boasting top-tier playoff foes like Dallas and Detroit for massive upside. We skipped tight ends this time due to the position's unpredictability, but tossed in quick nods to Zach Ertz, Hunter Henry, Kyle Pitts, Brenton Strange, Isaiah Likely, and Mark Andrews for those hunting depth. Whether you're a contender eyeing a late first round pick trade or flipping a second for budget adds, these realistic targets can get your roster over the hump. 00:00 Start 03:16 Trade for Daniel Jones! 06:19 Trade for Sam Darnold! 10:39 Trade for Jaylen Warren 14:15 Trade for Bucky Irving! 18:28 Trade for Ricky Pearsall! 22:14 Roster Rescue 22:50 Trade for Jordan Addison!

0:00.0	Welcome back to the Dynasty Nerds podcast. I am your host, Garrett Price. I'm here with my main guy, Andrew Ma. Andrew, how you doing?
0:09.9	I'm doing good, man. Just excited to talk about some buys. Look, we're in the second half of the season now. It's like officially the turn of the page. Now we're looking towards playoffs. We're looking towards how can we win win these fantasy championships so I'm excited to kind of figure out how we can get
0:23.8	these teams over the hump to bring home some gold this year yeah and and that's
0:28.6	what we're looking at in this video we or this podcast if you're listening to it on
0:32.9	only audio form basically what we're doing here is Andrew and I took a look at the quarterback, the
0:38.9	running back, in the wide receiver position. Now, we did not do the tight end because we're looking
0:43.5	at rest of season or not rest of season schedule, specifically playoff schedule. That's what we're
0:47.6	looking at. We're looking at their opportunity at the very end of the season to actually help you
0:51.9	win a championship and guys that we could
0:54.1	realistically get. But the hard part about the tight end position is, A, it's kind of a mess
0:59.5	overall. The guys that are actually going to help you are really, really difficult to get.
1:05.1	The guys that could maybe help you for the most part didn't have great schedules. And week
1:09.8	to week, it is one of the less predictable when
1:14.1	you look at playoff schedules it's not as quite quite as predictable as some of the other ones like
1:18.4	yes this team always has a bad passing defense this team always has a bad rush defense like
1:22.9	tight end it's just kind of more of a function of the offense how much are they going to target the
1:26.5	tight end versus the wide receivers?
1:28.3	And so it gets a little wonky. But all of that being said, we wanted to focus on the big three positions. So we kind of left tie down out in the cold. So sorry, tight end truthers. Just get a good one and then just keep playing them. We tried. We tried to look at them. I mean, there was some names, but it was like, do I love the idea of trading for these names?
1:46.7	Maybe not so much.
1:47.9	Right. then just keep playing them we tried we tried to look at them i mean there was some names but it was like
1:44.4	do i love the idea of trading for these names maybe not so much right exactly so we don't we don't
1:49.6	want to give information that we would not actually do in real life and that's one thing that does
