Trade case studies

Three player situations. Expand a card for how to read the numbers, the best use, and when to pass even if the value looks fair.

01
Ja'Marr Chase CIN · WR · 1-for-2 Package, not a peer swap
Case study

Chase is a weekly hammer. Fair value is usually two high-usage starters — not one “similar” WR.

Side A Ja'Marr Chase
Side B De'Von Achane · Puka Nacua
Comp value ~15,002 · Superflex sample · Dec 2025

Read

How to treat these infos

  • Value is package-level. Don’t match Chase to one name.
  • 30-day trend is noise unless his role actually changed.
  • Set format / QB / scoring first. Wrong board = fake fairness.

Use

Best use case

  • You are contending and need two weekly starters.
  • You are buying Chase and can attach a WR2/RB2 so capital lines up.
  • Your WR room can survive losing one alpha if two new starters plug holes.

Pass

When to pass (even if it looks right)

  • The return is one peer WR. Volume does not replace him 1-for-1.
  • Fair on paper, but you empty your only WR1 and the extra piece is a bench dart.
  • The comp is Superflex and you play 1QB — ignore that haul shape.

02
Jahmyr Gibbs DET · RB · youth stack Contender vs rebuild
Case study

Gibbs prices as a win-now RB1. The matching ask is usually another young WR stud plus a second high-upside piece.

Side A Jahmyr Gibbs
Side B Malik Nabers · Omarion Hampton
Comp value ~14,148 · 1 QB sample · Jul 2025

Read

How to treat these infos

  • Value is the same capital. Construction is the real question.
  • Weekly floor (Gibbs) vs two futures (Nabers + youth).
  • Compare Gibbs vs Bijan comps before you treat one RB1 as unique.

Use

Best use case

  • Contending: pay up for Gibbs’ touches this season.
  • Rebuilding: sell Gibbs for two young pieces, not one aging RB.
  • You have a clear roster identity. Don’t split the difference.

Pass

When to pass (even if it looks right)

  • You’re a playoff team and the return is two bench stashes.
  • You’re rebuilding and taking one “safe” RB because the number matches.
  • Injury news is the whole pitch — wait for a role, not a rumor.
03
Jayden Daniels WAS · QB · Superflex Format tax, not a steal
Case study

In Superflex, a locked QB1 can clear for another QB plus an elite skill player. That haul looks crazy on a 1QB board — and it should.

Side A Jayden Daniels
Side B Caleb Williams · Ja'Marr Chase
Comp value ~15,159 · Superflex sample · Aug 2025

Read

How to treat these infos

  • Read the card’s 1QB / Superflex tag before the names.
  • SF comps inflate QBs. 1QB comps inflate RB/WR packages.
  • Use the board toggles first. Then argue fairness.

Use

Best use case

  • Superflex and you need a locked QB1 for the next three years.
  • You can pay QB + skill because your second QB slot is the hole.
  • You’re selling Daniels in SF and the return fills QB and a skill gap.

Pass

When to pass (even if it looks right)

  • You’re in 1QB and quoting this SF haul. It is not your market.
  • You’re already set at QB and the “plus Chase” still misses the position you need.
  • The offer is fair in SF value and terrible in your lineup — pass on process, not pride.

Trade Database

Browse FantasyHQ package comps — search a player, study fair shapes, then rebuild the deal for your roster.

01

Read the shape

Start with the badge (1-for-4, 2-for-1). Price the package, not one name vs one name — same scale as the FantasyHQ values board.

02

Match your league

Check 1 QB vs Superflex on every card. SF comps inflate QBs — copying them into 1QB will make deals look “unfair.”

03

Rebuild the offer

Search your target, pull 3–5 comps, then rebuild the same shape with players you actually roster.

FantasyHQ guidance

Quick playbooks for the most common trade decisions.

Buying a star

Pay with depth: 2–4 startable pieces or a stud + pick. If the comps show 1-for-3 and you offer 1-for-1, you are underpaying.

  • Open 3 comps for the star first
  • Mirror the asset count on the big package side
  • Keep one “sweetener” pick if you are pushing a win-now deal

Selling a star

Ask for roster construction help, not a lateral peer. Contenders want weekly points; rebuilders want youth + picks.

  • Contending buyer → demand two starters
  • Rebuilding buyer → demand young upside + a 1st
  • Walk if they only offer one name of similar ADP

Picks in the deal

Orange Pick tags are future capital. Early 1sts often price near starter value in dynasty; later picks are glue.

  • Rebuilding? Prefer picks over aging RB volume
  • Contending? Prefer players over mid/late picks
  • Never value a 3rd like a WR2 unless comps show it

Before you click send

Fair on the chart can still be wrong for your roster. Run this FantasyHQ checklist — Pro unlocks roster-aware scoring.

  • Does the format tag match your league?
  • Do you still have a startable lineup after the trade?
  • Would you accept the same shape if the names were swapped?

Browse comps

Use each card as a package shape (1-for-4, 2-for-1), not a forced ask. Orange tags are draft picks.

Fantasy Trade Analyzer Guide

Evaluate fantasy football trades with FantasyHQ value charts. Match redraft or dynasty, QB type, league size, and PPR — then compare Value and 30-day trend.

The Fantasy Trade Analyzer ranks rosterable players by trade value — separate charts for redraft and dynasty, with QB type, league size, and scoring filters so the board matches your league.

How to evaluate a trade

  1. Format — toggle Redraft or Dynasty to match your league.
  2. Settings — set 1 QB / Superflex, team count, and PPR scoring.
  3. Find players — search the Value table or open Player Lookup.
  4. Balance sides — compare total Value; aim within ~5% on even deals.
  5. Roster need — a WR2 can beat a higher-Value RB3 if you are thin at receiver.
