| 0:00.0 | This is one of the last weeks you can make a trade in your fantasy football league before the deadline hits. |
| 0:04.4 | So in this video, we are breaking down the 10 players that you need to trade for and trade off your team if you actually want to win your fantasy league. And let's start with Chase Brown of the Cincinnati Bengals, who was taken by many people in the second or third round of their fantasy draft this past August and summer. And honestly, for good reason, we love Chase Brown on this program. but once Joe Burrow went down early in the season with an injury, |
| 0:23.2 | things became very bleak for that Bengals offense. But then Joe Flacco stepped in a couple of weeks later, and he's resurged basically the entire offense, including Chase Brown. And Chase Brown continued to find success this past week for 18 carries, 99 rushing yards, 5.5 yards per attempt. He didn't stop there as he's been |
| 0:38.6 | definitely activated once again in the receiving game with Joe Flackle in their center. Six |
| 0:42.6 | catches, a team high six catches, 28 yards. So you're getting 25 touches this past week. |
| 0:48.1 | Over 120, over 120 total yards for Chase Brown, another 20 or so fantasy points. And he's just |
| 0:53.6 | been so awesome, especially since Somagia Piran went down with injury back in like week eight. We're getting the Chase Brown we saw last year these last couple of weeks. Look, you're basically getting 13 carries a game, five targets per game. But if you look specifically in these last few weeks, when indeed Samaji P. Ryan went down with injury, what are you getting from Chase Brown? 12 carries, 11, 18 carries some more work course usage. Three catches. Eight catches on 14 targets remind you a lot of what you were seeing towards the end of last year with Joe Burrow and six catches. A hundred or more total yards in four straight games. I mean, it might have taken until the second half of the season, but just like last year in the second half of the season, Chase Brown is once again becoming a league winner. I mean, it's almost a spitting image. Remember the second half last year, 20 fantasy points per game between his receiving and rushing yards. He was having about 110 total yards per game. So far in the second, whoops, so far in the second half this season, these past four games or so if if you want to categorize that as the second half, you're getting the 110 total yards per game, you're getting the close to 20 fantasy points per game. It is literally a spitting image. And again, a lot of this has to do with Somaji P. Ryan going down with injury. We've seen Chase Brown have elite usage these last two weeks since the veteran, really the only other running back in his backfield of Bengals have trusted in Samaji P. Ryan went down with injury. You can see, Chase Brown in his first game before the by week back in week nine, 95% of the snaps, 79% of the rush attempts, and 86% of the routes run, literally one of the best usage games, if not the best usage game we've seen from a running back all season long, which is insane. It goes up there with some of Jonathan Taylor's performances this year. You get this past week remains elite. Even after the by week, Taj Brooks, the rookie doesn't get elevated all that much. Chase Brown still seeing 83% of the snaps, 86% of the rush attempts, 83% of the routs run. I mean, this 86% or 83% of the routes is insane. Like anything touching 70% is elite for running backs. 80% is unreal. That's why it's leading to these 14 and 8 target games and he's just locking in like minimum four catchers right now, which is amazing for PPR formats. Now, of course, if the Bengals can hang around and stay competitive, they really needed to win this past week. Unfortunately, they didn't. You can see right here, according to Ian Rappaport, Joe Burrow is likely to be back |
| 2:53.1 | on the field Thanksgiving or the following week. So there's a chance that Burrow comes back in a week or two. If that's the case, you could probably see pretty consistent usage for Chase Brown the rest of the season in terms of the offense moving the ball, running more plays, getting to the red zone that helps the backfield so chase brown right now is wheels up if there's somebody in your |
| 3:08.5 | league who had that bad taste in their mouth from the first half of the season when he was running more plays, getting to the red zone, that helps the backfield. So Chase Brown right now is wheels up. |
| 3:07.7 | If there's somebody in your league who had that bad taste in their mouth, from the first half of the season when he was terrible and a terrible offense, things are turning around. Chase Brown right now, I'd rather have than D.K. McHath. I'd probably rather have than Trayvon Henderson. I know he's the new hot commodity. I think I'd rather have Chase Brown definitely than Nick Chubb, definitely than Stefan Diggs, Chase Brown looks like somebody in my opinion that based on those trades I just |
| 3:27.2 | showed you over the past 24 hours, you can get right now in a pretty fair deal. And you can probably also get Arronday Gadsden, the fifth round rookie tight end for the Los Angeles Chargers, who just a couple of weeks ago looked like one of the best tight ends in fantasy football, but oh, how quickly things change and how quickly people's views on players |
| 3:40.9 | change because the past two weeks for Gadsden have been rough, but it requires context. Okay, two weeks ago, Gadsden has three catches for 13 yards early in that game, and then he ends up suffering an injury, he leaves that game with an injury, and he ends up being day-to-day, so he comes into this past week in week 11, banged up a little bit, but he plays. And he goes out there and he only has two catches for 41 yards. |
| 3:58.7 | In a game, though, where Justin Herbert literally had the worst performance of week in week 11 banged up a little bit, but he plays. And he goes out there and he only has two catches for 41 yards. |
| 3:58.7 | In a game, though, where Justin Herbert literally had the worst performance of his career, just 81 passing yards in three quarters of play before getting pulled in a blowout. So I'm not going to hold this against Gadsden. Two weeks ago, he was literally playing well. Three early catches in the game gets pulled with an injury. this past week his quarterback doesn't even throw for 85 passing yards so i'm not going to blame this on |
| 4:15.8 | gadsden now he's entering his by which is important the game gets pulled with an injury. This past week, his quarterback doesn't even throw for 85 passing yards, so I'm not |
| 4:14.9 | going to blame this on Gadsden. Now he's entering his by-week, which is important because it means it's going to be at least a month until Gadsden has been fantasy relevant for whoever has him in your league, which means you could probably buy low pretty much right now, especially with him on buy, currently getting zero points on somebody's bench. Because check this out right here. Despite this past week, week 11 not being great for the Chargers offense, |
| 4:32.5 | Arronday Gadsden was tied with Keenan Allen for a team. getting zero points on somebody's bench. Because check this out right here. Despite this past week, week 11, not being great for the Chargers' offense, |
| 4:32.5 | Arronday Gadsden was tied with Keenan Allen for a team high in first read target chairs, according to fantasy points data. He was seeing 28.6% of Justin Herbert's first team target chairs. Basically, since the past month of the season or so, since he's become more involved in the offense last six weeks or so he's been top two on the team in first read target chairs |
| 4:48.9 | as well right there with lad mcconkey. Let's not forget. I get it. Over the last couple of weeks, you've been frustrated with the injury and then the offense stinking. But before that, his four games before that when he was breaking out, 18 fantasy points per game on 94 receiving yards per game. He was literally a top three fantasy tight end and even rest of season. |
| 5:05.3 | Obviously, Trey McBride's up there, Brock Bowers, George Kiddle. But after that, like Tyler Warren, Arronday Gadsden, they're all in that same neighborhood for best tight end rest of season in that top five or so. This is a player who has a rookie right now ranks fourth in yards per route run amongst tight ends. he's been absolutely elite in terms of what his usage has been this year when he's been on the field. |
| 5:23.5 | I mean, pretty solid 20%. fourth in yards per route run amongst tight ends. He's been absolutely elite in terms of what his |
| 5:21.1 | usage has been this year when he's been on the field. I mean, pretty solid. 20% target rate is pretty solid when you're competing with guys like Keenan Allen, Ladd-McConkie, Quinton Johnston, running backs out of the backfield as well. Your quarterback's also mobile. And he's still putting up these nice performances. This is a player that I want on my team if I don't already have an elite tight end look Look at some of the trades that you can get done for Arronday Gadsden right now. Zach Charbonnet, |
