So here’s your guide if you’re a seller or a contender, with some players who you can sell somewhat high on based on performance and strength of schedule.

The result? We some running backs, wide receivers and one tight end — no quarterbacks, there aren’t enough good ones to sell high on one — for you  offer on if you can. Obviously, this all depends on where you’re at in the standings, whether you’re in a dynasty league and so forth.

Let’s dive in, and check out our guide to seven players you can buy low on:

De’Von Achane will be back soon, and while I think he and Mostert can coexist, it feels like now’s the time to sell high.

RB Brian Robinson Jr., Washington Commanders

He’s been good, but a little too touchdown-dependent. In games where he doesn’t score, he’s just OK, plus he doesn’t factor in much to the passing game.

There are a lot of mouths to feed in Houston, so you can sell high off of Collins’ last game in the hopes someone will bite.

His work is starting to disappear, with Zach Charbonnet slowly taking over. Time to sell before it’s too late.

The recent touchdown barrage doesn’t change the fact that Justice Hill and Keaton Mitchell are taking away playing time.
