Dynasty Alternatives: Two Pivots You Could Make in Your Leagues

We pick out two possible pivot options: one at wide receiver and one at running back.

In case you didn’t know, DLF has a YouTube channel! We post FREE video content over there at least five days a week covering dynasty trades, strategy, and player analysis. For my videos specifically, I write out a script to basically read when I record, but I realized that script could be turned into written content for anyone who doesn’t want to watch YouTube to read too! So, without further ado, here is an “article-ized” version of one of my recent videos covering dynasty alternatives to highly valued players!

Being able to trade down within tiers at positions, while still maintaining production, is by far the easiest way to add draft capital or more assets in general to your roster, and that will be the point of this series throughout the off-season. The way this will work is I will show you stats from two similar players in similar situations with similar production, but one is valued at a premium in startup drafts or trades and the other is valued as the generic version, and then we’ll break it down.

First up, we have a wide receiver comparison. Our premium receiver is currently 24 years old, and over his last 17 games, he has produced 117 targets, 75 receptions, 1,350 yards, and 8 TDs, averaging 15.3 fantasy points per game, with seven top-24 weeks and six top-12.

Our generic receiver is also 24 years old, and over his last 17 games, he has produced: 136 targets, 95 receptions, 1,200 yards, and 7 TDs, averaging 15.1 fantasy points per game, with 11 top-24 weeks and four top-12.

What if the Lion’s don’t resign Jamaal Williams? If they don’t that vaults Swift’s value into the stratosphere. As much as he wants to resign there, that money can definitely be spent better elsewhere to improve that roster.
