Dynasty Fantasy Football Trade Targets: Week 13 Buy Low, Sell High Candidates

November 26, 2025

Dynasty fantasy football trade targets: Week 13 buy low, sell high candidates for 2025. Jorden's trade analyzer article looking at overvalued and undervalued players.

Dynasty fantasy football is incredibly fun for many reasons, but perhaps the best thing about dynasty is its robust, year-long trade market. Whether you're contending, rebuilding, or retooling in the offseason, there is always a deal to be made and (hopefully) an interested trade partner.

Although there are plenty of dynasty leagues with trade deadlines, it is much more common to find a dynasty league without one than a redraft league. This is because there is no incentive for the bottom-dwelling teams to make non-collusive trades in redraft. In dynasty, on the other hand, the worst teams in the league are often the most active, as fantasy managers scramble to sell all of their aging, productive assets for youth and draft capital.

I'll be keeping both contenders and rebuilders in mind as I suggest some players to trade for, and others to trade away. It may be obvious which players best suit your strategy, but I'll be sure to mention what kind of teams I think are positioned to make each move. Without further ado, let's dive into dynasty, starting with four players to target in negotiations.

Players to Target in Trades for Dynasty Fantasy Football

Bucky Irving, RB - Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The vibes surrounding Bucky Irving last week were confusing, to say the least, but it seems that the second-year pro will make his long-awaited return on Sunday after head coach Todd Bowles confirmed that he will practice all week.

A fourth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Irving was a surprise breakout at the end of last season, averaging 17 fantasy points per game as the RB7 from Week 10 on.

He got off to a hot start in 2025, specifically as a pass-catcher. Through the first four weeks of the campaign, Irving tied for fifth among all running backs in targets with 19. Even more impressively, he caught all 19 of them for 193 yards and two touchdowns.

Assuming Irving is fully healthy, he should pick up right where he left off. Over the last five weeks remaining in the fantasy football season, Irving will not face a single opponent that ranks as a top-15 run defense.

His schedule is highlighted by matchups against the Falcons, Panthers, and Dolphins in the fantasy playoffs. All three of these teams have been exploited both on the ground and through the air by opposing backs.

Of course, this makes Irving an appealing option for contending dynasty rosters, but rebuilders can also give Irving a look. He's just 22 years old, and with Rachaad White entering unrestricted free agency in 2026, he could see an even larger workload next season and beyond.

Irving should still be viewed as a top-12 dynasty back in most leagues, but he's certainly easier to acquire now than he was coming into the season. Given his upcoming schedule, it's likely that his value shoots back up over the next few weeks.

Although it would be ideal if quarterback Baker Mayfield didn't miss any time with his low-grade left shoulder sprain, Irving should be a focal point of Tampa Bay's offense no matter who is under center.

Tory Horton, WR - Seattle Seahawks

In Week 9, Seahawks rookie wideout Tory Horton erupted for two touchdowns on four receptions for 48 yards. He hasn't caught a pass since, as he's dealing with groin and shin injuries that eventually landed him on IR.

Obviously, contenders in dynasty leagues won't get much, if anything, out of Horton this season. Teams that are on the outside looking in, however, should consider him an intriguing addition.

With Jaxon Smith-Njigba playing like the best receiver in the NFL, Horton has no chance of being the best receiver in Seattle anytime soon. That doesn't mean he can't become a solid fantasy contributor. If he does emerge as the team's WR2 next season, no receiver in the league will have an easier job than Horton.

So, what are the chances he actually becomes the second option in Seattle's aerial attack? Let's look at his competition. Veteran Cooper Kupp signed a lucrative three-year, $45-million contract with the Seahawks this past offseason.

Through 10 games played, Kupp has posted only 31 receptions for 414 yards and one touchdown. His per-game statistics, across the board, are on pace to be career lows.

Despite the look of Kupp's contract on the surface, Seattle can move on from the 32-year-old without much hassle after this season. Whether he remains with the team or not, it's clear that Kupp's best days in the NFL are behind him.

The only other receiver of note on the Seahawks' roster is Rashid Shaheed. Unlike Kupp, Shaheed hasn't shown signs of regression, but he hasn't made a significant impact since being dealt to Seattle ahead of the trade deadline. He has three catches for 30 yards on eight targets over the past three weeks.

Things could certainly change, but as of now, there's probably a better chance of Shaheed signing with a new team in 2026 free agency than resigning with the Seahawks.

Horton was a fifth-round pick earlier this year, so by no means is his job secure, but it's important to note that Horton was a standout throughout training camp and immediately had a role on offense. When healthy, he consistently played ahead of third-year man Jake Bobo and fellow rookie Cody White.

With five receiving touchdowns and nearly 12.4 yards per reception, it's safe to say he impressed in his limited opportunities. He won't cost much to acquire, so Horton profiles as a low-risk, high-reward dynasty wideout heading into year two.

Bhayshul Tuten, RB - Jacksonville Jaguars

I highlighted Travis Etienne Jr. as a player to trade for in redraft leagues a few weeks ago, and he has been great for fantasy purposes since. He's operating as the clear lead back in Liam Coen's offense with Bhayshul Tuten serving in a complementary role. Tuten's usage in Week 11 was very interesting, though.

#Jaguars Week 11 RB Usage

- Travis Etienne: 51% snaps, 19 carries, 8 routes, 2 targets (73 yds, 2 TDs)
- Bhayshul Tuten: 32% snaps, 15 carries, 4 routes, 0 targets (74 yds, TD)

— Michael F. Florio (@MichaelFFlorio) November 16, 2025

While his opportunities dwindled last week, it's possible the Jaguars were exercising some caution with Tuten, who was nursing an ankle injury leading up to the win over the Cardinals. With Etienne averaging over six yards per touch on Sunday, there was little reason to go away from him.

With how effective Etienne has been, it's unlikely that Tuten surpasses him on the depth chart this season, but the rookie was an enticing prospect that gave the team the confidence to trade away Tank Bigsby.

His 4.32-second 40-yard dash time was not only the fastest of any running back at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine, but tied with De'Von Achane as the fourth-fastest 40-time for any RB in NFL history. As a fourth-round pick, it's no guarantee he ever becomes a three-down workhorse, but there was enough invested in Tuten to ensure he gets a shot.

After this season, Etienne will become an unrestricted free agent, meaning he's free to sign with any team. He should command a decent pay day, and there's a good chance it won't be in Jacksonville.

Etienne has been the subject of trade rumors over the past two years, so we can expect multiple teams to be interested in the former first-round pick. This would clear the way for Tuten to lead the backfield in year two.

Furthermore, it's reasonable to think Jacksonville can improve offensively in 2025. The ship may have sailed on Trevor Lawrence ever meeting the lofty expectations that were placed on him coming out of Clemson, but he could still take a step up in his second year working with Coen and offensive coordinator Grant Udinski, especially with a healthy receiving corps.

The Jaguars had Brian Thomas Jr., Travis Hunter, and Brenton Strange all healthy in just four full games this season.

Like Horton, Tuten is a worthwhile target for teams with their sights on 2026, but contenders shouldn't sleep on the Virginia Tech product, either. The importance of running back depth cannot be overstated, and the Jags have a pretty favorable remaining schedule.

Jayden Reed, WR - Green Bay Packers

This season, we finally got an answer to the question that has surrounded the Green Bay Packers ever since Davante Adams was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders in 2022: Who is the top pass-catcher for this team?

It was Tucker Kraft, who led all Packers wideouts and tight ends in receiving yards, touchdowns, and fantasy points through the first nine weeks of the campaign. He just barely trailed receiver Romeo Doubs in targets and receptions, but Kraft's utilization was elite for a tight end nonetheless.

With Kraft unfortunately set to miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL, Green Bay has needed someone else to step up. Both Doubs and first-round rookie Matthew Golden have been quiet since Kraft's injury, while Christian Watson returned from his to become an important piece of the offense.

Out of all the Packers' wide receivers, none have shown more potential as a go-to guy for Jordan Love than Jayden Reed. Though his involvement has been far from consistent, Reed has earned six or more targets in 16 contests since the start of his rookie season in 2023, the same year Love took over for a New York-bound Aaron Rodgers.

In the same span, Doubs has 18 games with six or more targets, but Doubs' sample encapsulates 41 full games played, while Reed has only completed 34 regular-season contests. To break it down even further, Reed has earned a target on 21.5% of his routes run since entering the league. Over the same time period, Doubs has a 19.5% target rate, and Watson's is 18.4%.

Packers' WRs in yards per route run

Jayden Reed 3.21
Christian Watson 2.07
Savion Williams 1.86
Romeo Doubs 1.75
Matthew Golden 1.43
Bo Melton 1.33
Dontayvion Wicks 1.15
Malik Heath 0.95

— Wendell Ferreira (@wendellfp) November 18, 2025

It seems that the only thing that has held Reed back from reaching his true ceiling is the coaching staff's hesitancy to keep him on the field full-time. This may never change, but if Green Bay is ever going to give Reed a shot in an expanded role, now would be the time.

Love's numbers have been depressed since Kraft went down, and Golden, as of now, has failed to live up to the hype he generated in camp.

Reed, of course, will need to get healthy himself to take advantage of this potential opportunity. He's been out since Week 2 with shoulder and foot injuries, but returned to practice in a limited fashion this week. Even if he plays on Thanksgiving, he could very well be on a snap count, but there is a lot to like about Reed's upside down the stretch.

The Packers will face the Bears twice and the Broncos and Ravens each once between Weeks 14 and 17. The matchup against Denver is the only one to be wary of.

Who knows what this receiver room looks like in a couple of years, but it's important to note that Doubs is an unrestricted free agent after this season. If Doubs signs elsewhere, Reed, entering a contract year of his own, should headline the group alongside Golden and the oft-injured Watson. I consider Reed a strong, affordable target for contenders and rebuilders alike.

Players to Trade Away for Dynasty Fantasy Football

DJ Moore, WR - Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears are leading the highly competitive NFC North with an 8-3 record. Caleb Williams is the QB7, yet all of the Bears' skill position players have caused headaches for fantasy managers at some point this season. DJ Moore was definitely the most worrisome through the first eight weeks, having exceeded 10 fantasy points just once.

Since Week 9, his fantasy output has been all or nothing. Over the past four weeks, Moore has scored over 20 fantasy points twice and fewer than three fantasy points twice. Most recently, he found the end zone twice and tied a season-high of five receptions in a win over the Steelers.

Pittsburgh's defense has looked sensational at times this season, but has been beaten up on numerous occasions by opposing wide receivers. In other words, I don't expect this performance to be indicative of what's to come for Moore, who faces an extremely difficult schedule over the next five weeks.

On Friday, the Bears will travel to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles. Although Philly struggled against George Pickens and the Cowboys last week, it's tough to have a high degree of confidence in Williams and Moore in that environment.

From Weeks 14 through 16, Moore gets a gauntlet of Green Bay, Cleveland, and Green Bay again. The Packers and Browns both rank among the top 10 most difficult matchups for receivers.

Beyond this season, Moore's dynasty value is murky at best. With Rome Odunze emerging as the top target in Chicago this season, we could see Moore fall to fourth in the pecking order come 2026.

Both Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland have looked great when given opportunities, and as Ben Johnson's first two draft picks as a head coach, they should only see their roles grow next season.

The Bears don't have a potential out from Moore's contract until after the 2027-2028 campaign, at which point he'll be 30 years old. It wouldn't be surprising if the team tried to shop him this coming offseason, but suitors may be tough to find given his near-$25-million cap hit coming off a down season.

Though I'd look to sell high on Moore regardless of team build, rebuilders in particular should prioritize shipping him off to a contender.

Hunter Henry, TE - New England Patriots

No disrespect to Hunter Henry, but the fact that he is the TE5 on the season speaks volumes to how few fantasy difference-makers there are at the position. He is averaging fewer than nine fantasy points per contest.

Still, he's been integral to New England's success. Drake Maye is a legitimate MVP candidate with Henry as one of his most reliable weapons. Stefon Diggs leads the Patriots with 75 targets, but Henry isn't too far behind with 63. Perhaps even more impressively, Henry bests Diggs in yards per reception.

In Week 12, Henry came down with seven of 10 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in a win over the Bengals. This was the fourth-best fantasy showing of Henry's 10-year career. This is an outlier performance for Henry, in large part due to the outlier of a matchup he had.

Cincinnati has been historically awful against tight ends this year. The Bengals were also the worst defense in the NFL against tight ends last season, allowing them to score just over 227 half-PPR fantasy points. Through 11 games this season, they've already given up about 213 points to the position.

Opposing tight ends average a whopping 19.3 fantasy points per game against Cincy. The second-best matchup for tight ends is the Jacksonville Jaguars, who give up over five points less per contest.

Simply put, Henry was an absolute smash start last week, and he came through. In his two other outings with double-digit fantasy points, Henry faced the Steelers and the Panthers, who give up the fourth-most and the eighth-most fantasy points to tight ends, respectively.

Henry's remaining schedule isn't so favorable. He gets the Giants on Monday night before a Week 14 bye, then the Bills, Ravens, and Jets in the fantasy playoffs. The Jets are the only team listed that gives up an average of more than 10 fantasy points to tight ends, and they still can't be seen as anything better than a middle-of-the-road matchup.

Henry is under contract through the 2026-2027 season, and given his significant contributions to the team, he's likely to stay put in New England at least until then. At 30 years old, he'll never have more dynasty value than he does right now.

Given that Henry's schedule makes him an unappealing option the rest of the way, I'd suggest trading him away on any dynasty team.

Kenneth Gainwell, RB - Pittsburgh Steelers

To give credit where it's due, Kenneth Gainwell has been awesome over the last two weeks. Not only is he the fantasy RB4 since Week 11, but Gainwell also looks like a starting-caliber NFL running back.

In this span, his 6.1 yards per attempt are fifth-most in the league, and he's posted more targets, receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns than Christian McCaffrey.

Backfield mate Jaylen Warren was also good for fantasy in Week 12, but he ran much less efficiently. He played on just 50% of Pittsburgh's offensive snaps, while Gainwell logged a 51% snap share. It's unclear if it had any effect on his playing time, but it's important to keep in mind that Warren had sustained an ankle injury in Week 11 and was in and out of practice last week.

Has Gainwell done enough to take the lead back duties away from Warren going forward? Maybe, but before we get ahead of ourselves and label Gainwell a league-winner, let's dive deeper into this hot streak.

In Week 11, the Steelers played the Bengals, who allow the most fantasy points to opposing running backs. They also surrender over five yards per carry, yet Gainwell managed just 24 rushing yards on nine attempts. He did all of his damage through the air.

In Week 12, Gainwell faced the Bears, who give up the 14th-most fantasy points to running backs. Chicago also allows over five yards per attempt, and Gainwell took full advantage this time, gaining 92 yards on only 10 carries.

Over the next three weeks, Gainwell's schedule is arguably more inviting than his past two matchups. In Weeks 16 and 17, he'll get the Lions and Browns, both on the road. Detroit and Cleveland both rank among the top-10 most challenging opponents for fantasy backs.

Let's not forget how good Warren is when given the chance to shine.

If you needed anything else to tell you why the Steelers should run the wheels off Jaylen Warren and forget Kenneth Gainwell is on the roster, it's right here.

This post came before Gainwell's Week 11 breakout, so pay less attention to the argument made and more to how special Warren was through the first nine weeks.

This will be a split backfield down the stretch. If you can capitalize on Gainwell's output against two subpar run defenses with a limited Warren, don't think twice.

Tre Tucker, WR - Las Vegas Raiders

Just about everything that could go wrong for the Raiders this season has gone wrong. Geno Smith looks like one of the worst starting quarterbacks in the league, Brock Bowers missed significant time with an injury, and OC Chip Kelly has been fired.

The receiving corps has also been a mess. Jakobi Meyers was traded ahead of the deadline, rookies Dont'e Thornton Jr. and Jack Bech haven't done much of anything, and 33-year-old Tyler Lockett is the team's leading wide receiver over the past three weeks.

Third-year pro Tre Tucker has had his moments, and of course can't be blamed for Smith's poor quarterback play. But considering the lack of target competition he has, his numbers are pretty underwhelming.

Tucker ranks 45th in the NFL in targets with 64 and 46th in catches with 41. He's the WR27 in fantasy, averaging 9.7 points per contest.

Without his outlier performance - a Week 3 outburst of eight receptions for 145 yards and three touchdowns - he'd be averaging just over seven fantasy points per game. This puts him in the range of players such as Keon Coleman, Josh Downs, and Xavier Worthy.

Although it's great to see that Tucker is capable of these explosive games, he's just not nearly consistent enough to be a fantasy option in non-bestball formats. Given the Raiders' schedule for the rest of the year, it will be nearly impossible to trust him in starting lineups.

Vegas will play the Chargers, Broncos, Eagles, and Texans before facing the Giants in Week 17. The Chargers, Broncos, and Texans represent the three most difficult matchups for opposing receivers. Only his matchup against New York in the fantasy championship should be viewed as favorable.

You won't get much in return for Tucker, but if someone in your league is willing to buy into the 10 targets he earned last week or his status as the WR27, jump on it.
