Dynasty Fantasy Football WR Trade Target

Rashee Rice, Kansas City Chiefs

Rice was a popular breakout pick last season. It looked like things were on the right track, but then disaster struck. Rice suffered a serious knee injury in a Week 4 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. It was later revealed he tore his LCL and was ruled out for the season.

He only played in three games last year, but Rice’s advanced metrics will leave you salivating. Per Fantasy Points Data Suite, Rice posted an elite 35 percent targets per route run (TPRR) as well as a remarkable 3.47 yards per route run (YPRR). These are very high marks, and scores like these indicate a high likelihood for fantasy football success.

A monster season could be coming for Rice.

Rice is healthy and ready for training camp, but is seen as a risky buy as he awaits word from the NFL on a possible suspension due to an off-field incident last spring. Should he be hit with a significant suspension, that could impact his dynasty value since the team also has receivers Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and Jalen Royals in the mix.

However, we have not received any updates in the legal case against Rice. Even if he is eventually suspended, there's no guarantee it will be for a significant number of games. As things stand now, Rice is healthy entering the 2025 season and is once again in line to emerge as Patrick Mahomes' top receiver.

If Rice plays the full season, a 100+ reception campaign is a real possibility, and he will be a PPR cheat code. There are many reasons to be excited about Rice’s 2025 season and beyond.

Dynasty Fantasy Football WR Sell Candidate

Deebo Samuel Sr., Washington Commanders

2024 was not Samuel’s best season. The six-year veteran butted heads with teammates throughout the year and was forced to overcome a midseason bout of pneumonia. He only caught 51 passes for 670 yards and averaged the fewest receiving yards per game of his entire career.

Apparently, there was more going on behind the scenes in 2024. Samuel requested that the team trade him this offseason, and San Francisco eventually traded him to the Washington Commanders.

It remains to be seen if Washington knows how to deploy Samuel properly. He has played such a unique role in the 49ers' offense throughout his career. Samuel is not a typical receiver, primarily because he’s not a great route runner or separator. So this could make it difficult for him to find success if he’s not deployed in the same role that Kyle Shanahan created for him in San Francisco.

The bottom line is that Samuel struggled last year, and the 49ers were willing to let him leave. They only received a fifth-round pick in return and took on $31 million in dead cap money by moving him. All of this sure looks like a red flag.

Find someone who still believes in Samuel and use his name value to cash out. Trade returns won’t be the same as they were a few years ago, but they’ll be better if you move him now before the bottom completely falls out.
