Week 10 Fantasy Football: 5 Players to Buy Now and 5 to Sell High Before the Playoffs

Beyond the ADP | November 11, 2026

Fantasy trade deadlines are approaching. These 10 players could help turn your playoff contender into a championship roster.

The Playoff Push Starts Now

Waiver claims are in, trade deadlines are approaching, and fantasy managers are running out of opportunities to improve their rosters.

At Beyond the ADP, we’re looking beyond last week’s box scores. We’re evaluating player opportunity, rest-of-season potential, remaining schedules, and how the trade market values each player.

Our Buy Now list includes players whose upside may exceed their current asking price. Our Sell High list focuses on players who could bring back more in a trade than we expect them to deliver down the stretch.

Not every player we’re buying is a traditional buy-low. And selling high doesn’t mean giving up on a good player—it means recognizing when the market may be willing to overpay.

Here are our 10 players to consider before your fantasy trade deadline.


📈 5 PLAYERS TO BUY NOW

1. Kyren Williams — RB, Los Angeles Rams

Week 10 trade value: 46.8 | Weekly change: −5.5

Williams is one of our favorite established running backs to target.

His reported trade-chart value dropped 5.5 points this week, potentially creating an opportunity for managers seeking dependable running back production.

His combination of rushing opportunities, scoring potential, and receiving involvement gives him a path to strong weekly fantasy performances.

Why we’re buying: His market price has declined, but his role still provides meaningful RB1 upside.

Trade strategy: Target Williams if his manager is willing to accept high-end RB2 compensation. Account for the Rams’ Week 11 bye when evaluating the offer.

2. Breece Hall — RB, New York Jets

Week 10 trade value: 34.7 | Weekly change: −1.9

Hall is an interesting target for managers willing to accept some uncertainty.

Questions surrounding his health, workload, and the Jets’ offense may be reflected in his declining market value.

In full PPR formats, his receiving ability offers a path to strong fantasy performances even when rushing touchdowns are difficult to come by.

Why we’re buying: His upside could exceed the price frustrated managers are willing to accept.

Trade strategy: Explore offers involving a productive but lower-ceiling starter. Make sure Hall’s latest injury status and workload support the investment.

3. Justin Jefferson — WR, Minnesota Vikings

Week 10 trade value: 31.4 | Weekly change: −2.1

Jefferson is the biggest name on our Buy Now list.

His reported market value has softened, creating a potential opportunity to acquire an elite talent at a lower price than managers expected earlier in the season.

The concern isn’t Jefferson’s ability. It’s whether Minnesota can consistently provide the passing opportunities necessary for him to deliver his traditional fantasy ceiling.

Why we’re buying: His talent and target-earning ability make him worth pursuing when his asking price falls.

Trade strategy: Look for managers frustrated with inconsistent production. Avoid sacrificing multiple elite starters simply to acquire his name.

4. Nico Collins — WR, Houston Texans

Week 10 trade value: 33.5 | Weekly change: −0.3

Collins is one of our most intriguing rebound candidates.

His recent receiving production hasn’t consistently matched expectations, while Houston’s distribution of targets creates questions about his weekly floor.

But Collins still possesses the size, downfield ability, and touchdown potential to deliver strong performances if his opportunities increase.

This is a calculated upside play rather than a guaranteed rebound.

Why we’re buying: His recent inconsistency could allow managers to acquire a talented receiver without paying premium WR1 prices.

Trade strategy: Explore offers around a midrange WR2 valuation. If his manager demands elite compensation, look elsewhere.

5. Tyler Warren — TE, Indianapolis Colts

Week 10 trade value: 11.2 | Weekly change: +1.9

Warren is our tight end target for the playoff push.

His seven targets in Week 9 are encouraging at a position where consistent receiving opportunities can be difficult to find.

Unlike some of our other buys, Warren’s reported market value is already rising. The opportunity isn’t necessarily buying at a discount—it’s acquiring him before a possible expansion in his role makes him more expensive.

Why we’re buying: His receiving involvement offers upside at a position where even a modest improvement can make a meaningful difference.

Trade strategy: Consider Warren if you can acquire him using surplus depth without weakening your starting lineup.


📉 5 PLAYERS TO SELL HIGH

1. Javonte Williams — RB, Dallas Cowboys

Week 10 trade value: 52.3 | Weekly change: +5.5

Williams has rewarded fantasy managers with strong production, and the market has responded.

His reported trade value jumped 5.5 points this week, placing him among fantasy’s more valuable running backs.

That’s why we’re exploring the possibility of selling.

Williams can remain productive while still being worth trading if another manager is willing to pay elite RB1 prices.

Why we’re selling: His elevated market value could allow managers to upgrade multiple starting positions.

Trade strategy: Seek an established running back plus a meaningful improvement elsewhere. Don’t move Williams for a lateral trade.

2. Jameson Williams — WR, Detroit Lions

Week 10 trade value: 31.5 | Weekly change: +0.5

Williams has the explosive ability to change a fantasy matchup with one play.

His recent hot streak makes him attractive to managers looking for game-breaking upside.

However, explosive production doesn’t always translate into the most dependable weekly floor, particularly in an offense with multiple receiving options.

Why we’re selling: Another manager may be willing to pay for a continuation of his recent ceiling.

Trade strategy: Explore one-for-one offers for receivers with more consistent target volume. If the return doesn’t improve your roster, keep Williams.

3. Saquon Barkley — RB, Philadelphia Eagles

Week 10 trade value: 25.7 | Weekly change: 0.0

Barkley remains one of fantasy football’s most recognizable running backs.

But name recognition and current fantasy value aren’t always the same thing.

His reported market value has remained flat, and Philadelphia’s Week 10 bye adds another consideration for managers fighting for a playoff spot.

Managers should evaluate his expected workload and scoring opportunities rather than relying exclusively on past production.

Why we’re selling: If another manager values Barkley significantly above his current market price, explore the return.

Trade strategy: Consider moving him for a player with a more secure role or a package that improves your starting lineup. A strong offer is essential.

4. Bucky Irving — RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Week 10 trade value: 45.9 | Weekly change: +5.6

Irving’s reported trade value increased 5.6 points this week, making him one of the clearest examples of a rising fantasy asset.

He’s talented and capable of contributing as both a runner and receiver.

But the important question is whether his current asking price already accounts for much of his expected future production.

Tampa Bay is also on bye in Week 10.

Why we’re selling: A significant increase in market value gives managers an opportunity to test what another team will pay.

Trade strategy: Only consider offers returning high-end starting value. Irving isn’t someone we’d move simply because his price has risen.

5. Zay Flowers — WR, Baltimore Ravens

Week 10 trade value: 36.6 | Weekly change: +4.6

Flowers has experienced a notable increase in reported trade value.

That makes him an interesting candidate to shop, particularly if another manager believes he’s positioned for sustained WR1 production.

The concern is whether Baltimore’s passing volume and distribution of opportunities will consistently support that valuation.

Why we’re selling: His rising market price could provide an opportunity to acquire a receiver with a more predictable weekly role.

Trade strategy: Look for premium WR compensation. Otherwise, holding Flowers is reasonable.

What stands out: Kyren Williams has the largest reported decline among our buy candidates, while Javonte Williams and Bucky Irving have experienced significant increases.

These values are starting points. Your league format, roster construction, injuries, and playoff schedule should determine whether an individual trade makes sense.


Three Trade Strategies We’d Explore

1. Shop Javonte Williams while his value is elevated.

Williams currently carries a higher reported market valuation than Kyren Williams. If another manager will pay that difference, explore acquiring Kyren and improving another position.

2. Turn Jameson Williams’ explosive production into consistency.

If your roster already has several volatile players, consider exchanging Williams for a receiver with a more dependable target floor.

3. Buy Tyler Warren before a potential breakout.

Managers struggling at tight end should explore using surplus receiver or running back depth to acquire Warren.

These are strategies to investigate, not guaranteed equal-value trades.


Final Verdict: Buy Opportunity, Sell Market Value

Our three favorite Buy Now targets are Kyren Williams, Nico Collins, and Tyler Warren.

Our three players we’d most actively shop are Javonte Williams, Jameson Williams, and Zay Flowers.

The goal isn’t to win a trade on paper. It’s to build the strongest starting lineup for the weeks that matter most.
