Dynasty Trades: 3 Players to Buy Now – The Next Jefferson, Claypool, and Swift

Shawn Siegele
October 19, 2020

In today’s edition of the Dynasty Workshop, Shawn Siegele looks into the future to profile three key trade opportunities.

Each week in this space, I like to look at new developments through the lens of rankings or trades. In our current dynasty workshop series, we’ve re-drafted the 2019 and 2020 classes against each other and examined the way in which star injuries can sometimes offer rare opportunities to reload your roster.

After a week in which Justin Jefferson and Chase Claypool continued their star turns and D’Andre Swift authored his breakout, it can be frustrating if you just missed these players in your rookie draft or couldn’t quite swing a trade for them in the last couple of weeks. It feels like a key missed opportunity to reset your team.

Fortunately, we still have a chance to hit the next wave of breakouts. The trade market currently offers much cheaper players with notable similarities to our stars. If you’ve missed on these league-winning moves, here are the players to grab instead.
