Zero RB Watch: AFC Week 6 – Destroyed By the Superstars? Savvy Trade Opportunities Abound

Shawn Siegele
October 12, 2021

Shawn Siegele praises the performances of the AFC uber-backs, looks for opportunities to churn the back of your roster, and locates two backs to buy before the breakout.

It was a huge week for the AFC stars, and that’s one reason we always note that the Watch List isn’t just for Zero RB drafters. Understanding high-profile workloads is key to making tough redraft and dynasty trades. It’s definitely not as simple as selling big games.

Savvy Buys, Courageous Sells, and Looming Breakouts

I really like the new format with the four major categories that can be found in the Weekly Stats Explorer: rushing, receiving, opportunity, and expected points. We can then deploy the RotoViz Screener, NFL Stat Explorer, and the new Advanced Stats Explorer to go even deeper into the data for every team.

After a huge week like this, it’s a chance to position your redraft team for the playoffs or completely remake an aging dynasty.
