Dynasty fantasy football top wide receivers to buy low or sell high in 2026. We analyze the fantasy football dynasty trade value of top WRs like Emeka Egbuka and more.
The 2026 NFL Draft is almost here, so it's time to take a look at wide receivers whom you should buy low and sell high on in dynasty leagues. Looking to secure value on an underrated wideout or cash out on a player who can decline is a great way to improve your chances of winning a championship.
In this article, we will examine the dynasty outlooks for five wide receivers, determining whether you should buy low or sell high on them.
So, should we buy or sell Emeka Egbuka, Rome Odunze, Marvin Harrison Jr., Zay Flowers, and DJ Moore?

Emeka Egbuka, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Emeka Egbuka had a strange rookie season. Usually, we see first-year players start slow and finish strong, but it was the opposite for Egbuka:
- First nine games: 40 REC, 677 YDS, 16.9 Y/R, 6 TD
- Last eight games: 23 REC, 261 YDS, 11.3 Y/R, 0 TD
The former Ohio State standout was even phased out of the offense down the stretch, especially when Jalen McMillan returned to action. However, there are reasons for optimism in Year 2.
For one, Egbuka suffered a hamstring injury in Week 6. There's a chance that playing through that injury limited his production.
Secondly, the Bucs replaced offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard with Zac Robinson, who was once on Sean McVay's staff and worked as the Falcons play-caller last year. Robinson spoke positively about Egbuka in his introductory news conference, stating that "he's an unbelievable player." There's a chance that Robinson has big plans for Egbuka.
Additionally, Mike Evans has moved on, signing with the 49ers this offseason. That opens up an opportunity for Egbuka to emerge as the top wideout in this offense.
Egbuka's poor finish to the season has created a buying opportunity for us. This is your chance to get him at a discount. He's one of my favorite targets in redraft and top buys in dynasty.
Verdict: BUY
Current KeepTradeCut Value:
- QB - Brock Purdy (Superflex)
- RB - Jonathan Taylor
- WR - Garrett Wilson, Tetairoa McMillan
- TE - Tyler Warren
- Rookie Pick - 2026 Early First
Rome Odunze, WR, Chicago Bears
Rome Odunze is in a similar situation to Egbuka. He's a former first-round pick who started strong and finished poorly:
- First seven games: 31 REC, 473 YDS, 15.3 Y/R, 5 TD
- Last five games: 13 REC, 188 YDS, 14.5 Y/R, 1 TD
Odunze first popped up on the injury report with a foot injury before his eighth game of the season against the Bengals. He went catchless in that game. He later aggravated the injury, which caused him to miss time. Given how well Odunze was playing to start the year, it's reasonable to believe that the foot injury affected his performance.
Now heading into Year 2 of the Ben Johnson era, we could see Odunze put together a strong year if he can stay healthy. He's now comfortable in a complex offense that could reach new heights next year.
While I love Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland, they've become the hot ticket items in fantasy football. When so much attention is given to two players, it makes their teammates undervalued. You can get Odunze at a discount in dynasty leagues right now, making him a must-target.
There's a reason why Odunze got off to a strong start last year. He's a talented wideout who has become a contrarian play. That's when you pounce.
Verdict: BUY
Current KeepTradeCut Value:
- QB - Jordan Love (Superflex)
- RB - Quinshon Judkins, TreVeyon Henderson
- WR - Luther Burden
- TE - Harold Fannin Jr.
- Rookie Pick - 2027 Mid First
Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Arizona Cardinals
If Marvin Harrison Jr. never got hurt, he would have done what Michael Wilson ended up doing.
It was always a Kyler Murray issue.
Tetairoa McMillan has the same issue with Bryce Young.
— Frank Ammirante (@FAmmiranteTFJ) January 1, 2026
Marvin Harrison Jr. came into the NFL as one of the most touted wide receiver prospects in recent memory, lauded by many pundits as being an extremely safe pick. Through two seasons, Harrison has fallen well short of expectations.
To make matters worse, he was significantly outplayed by teammate Michael Wilson during an injury absence. With Jacoby Brissett returning as the starter after showing a strong rapport with Wilson, public sentiment on Harrison is down right now.
But I'm bullish on the former Ohio State star for a couple of reasons. The first is that Harrison was showing signs of life before getting injured, including this game log:
- 7 REC, 96 YDS, 13.7 Y/R, 1 TD
- 3 REC, 33 YDS, 11.0 Y/R, 1 TD
- 6 REC, 69 YDS, 11.5 Y/R
If Harrison hadn't gotten injured, it's fair to wonder if he would have been the one who went off down the stretch instead of Wilson.
Another reason why I'm buying in is that offensive coordinator Drew Petzing has moved on to become the play-caller for the Lions. New offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett is an underwhelming replacement, but Petzing clearly didn't utilize Harrison properly, deploying him strictly as a perimeter wideout when he can do more than that. Perhaps Hackett will deploy Harrison in a way that better suits his talents.
Many have become frustrated with Harrison because they had such high hopes coming out of the draft. Now is the time to buy.
Verdict: BUY
Current KeepTradeCut Value:
- QB - C.J. Stroud (Superflex)
- RB - Kyren Williams, Bucky Irving
- WR - DeVonta Smith, Brian Thomas Jr.
- TE - Tucker Kraft
- Rookie Pick - 2027 Late First
Zay Flowers, WR, Baltimore Ravens
Zay Flowers is coming off a career year where he caught 86-of-118 targets for 1,211 yards and five touchdowns. He's become a big-play threat for the Ravens, putting up 14+ yards per reception for the second consecutive season after only 11.1 as a rookie.
But there are a couple of issues here. For one, Todd Monken is no longer calling plays, as he's now the Browns head coach. The Ravens replaced Monken with Declan Doyle, who is a 29-year-old first-year play-caller who comes from Ben Johnson's staff in Chicago.
He can be fresh and innovative, but the jury is still out. What if he wants the Ravens to emphasize the running game after they got away from it too often last year?
Then you have to consider that with Jesse Minter, a former stud defensive coordinator with the Chargers, now at head coach, there's a good chance that the defense improves, especially since they signed edge-rusher Trey Hendrickson. With a better defense, that could mean fewer shootouts and more rushing volume.
With the NFL Draft coming up, there's also the chance that the Ravens add a wide receiver. Rashod Bateman has been disappointing, while Mark Andrews is clearly in decline, so the team desperately needs another pass-catcher. That would make the depth chart a little more crowded, which could affect Flowers' target share.
Considering that Flowers is coming off a career year, it's a great time to try to cash out here.
Verdict: SELL
Current KeepTradeCut Value:
- QB - Jared Goff (Superflex)
- RB - Travis Etienne Jr.
- WR - Jameson Williams, Rashee Rice
- TE - Sam LaPorta
- Rookie Pick - 2026 Mid First
DJ Moore, WR, Buffalo Bills
The Bills trading for DJ Moore reminds me of when they traded for Amari Cooper back in 2024.
They're betting on a veteran WR bouncing back with a better situation.
I'll bet against that happening.
— Frank Ammirante (@FAmmiranteTFJ) March 5, 2026
DJ Moore has been traded to the Bills, giving him a chance to become the new WR1 for Josh Allen. Understandably, that has fantasy football players quite excited, considering Moore's track record. However, I'm skeptical.
Check out what Moore has done in the last two seasons:
- 50 REC, 682 YDS, 13.6 Y/R, 6 TD
- 98 REC, 966 YDS, 9.9 Y/R, 6 TD
Now entering his age-29 season, this looks like a declining player.
With Joe Brady getting promoted from offensive coordinator to head coach, I'm expecting the team to continue moving forward with a committee approach in the passing game. That means targets for Khalil Shakir, Dalton Kincaid, and James Cook III. Maybe even Keon Coleman gets involved a bit.
With that in mind, it's the perfect time to try to sell high on Moore. Take advantage of the fact that Moore looks like Allen's new WR1 on paper.
Verdict: SELL
Current KeepTradeCut Value:
- QB - Malik Willis (Superflex)
- RB - Derrick Henry, Bhayshul Tuten
- WR - Jordan Addison, Alec Pierce
- TE - Oronde Gadsden
- Rookie Pick - 2028 Late First
