Week 3 Fantasy Football Trade Advice: Buy Low, Sell High & Live Trade Questions (Ep. 2215)

Chris Welsh and Andrew Erickson answer fantasy football trade questions heading into Week 3, with running back depth creating some of the toughest decisions. Omarion Hampton becomes a recurring topic as they weigh what he can return in a deal and when moving him actually makes a roster better.

There are also some intriguing buy-low opportunities on the board. Colston Loveland remains a target despite the slow start, while Chase Brown keeps coming up as a running back worth pursuing before his schedule opens up.

Welsh and Erickson work through the kinds of trades fantasy managers are actually seeing right now. If your roster already needs some work, this is a good place to figure out which move is worth making, and which one you’re better off leaving alone.
