It's always been simple for me:

Sell high on players who are producing uncharacteristically and aren't that talented or skilled.

Buy low on talented and skilled players who are being devalued because of injuries, situation and other weak groupthink criticism.

Yes, but I believe people are curious who everyone thinks are these players in each category.

Personally I am trying to sell high on crowell even though he did not have a good game yesterday. I think he has a lot of talent, I mean he was recruited to Georgia then got into trouble so the talent hasnt been an issue, its the team around him. I still think Diggs is good and as long as Bradford is Qb i believe he has wr2 upside. As far as buy low, I am trying to trade for Lacy and Ivory. I think Ivory will emerge as the better runner in that backfield and I think they will have opportunities to run the ball late in games on certain teams. Is he a rb1? no but I think you can get him for cheap after his game yesterday.

Buy low.. Kyle Rudolph. He's sneakily sitting at TE3 at the moment with a QB who targets TE's. Rudolph has the size and talent to be a open field threat and endzone target given his 6'6" stature.

I almost feel like now is a 'buy high' time for Rudy. He's TE3 in my league and had three straight solid outings, yet I don't really think he's that great. They don't really have any other options is working to his advantage so perhaps it maintains, but I'm not sure this is a low point in his value though. He hasn't strung many three games together like this in a long while I don't think.

He hasn't done much since his 2nd season in the league. He hasn't seen many targets through out his career due to injuries and inept quarterback play. His value has undoubtedly gone up, but I believe that it will continue to go up as the Vikings progress into more of a passing oriented team.

CMike's value just went even higher with Rawls being out for multiple weeks. It's making me a little hesitant to sell him now.

Trying to buy Martin everywhere.
And Rawls.

Everyone is injured so buying injured guys isn't horrible for value. When healthy both will be good.

Yeah, that changes my stance on Michael a bit, at least for the short term. Instead of trying to sell him this week, I'm more apt to hold him a couple more weeks since it now appears that he's going to continue to get a big workload.

What's the concensus on Lockett? Try to buy low? Or avoid? Outsnapped by P-Rich yesterday as WR3. I think with Graham back it destroys Lockett's value in non-best ball formats. Going to be severely volatile. Needs an injury.

QB: Matt Ryan
WR: Sammy Watkins
WR: Phillip Dorsett
RB: Isaiah Crowell (starting to get a little respect, but not enough)
RB: Adrian Peterson (I find it to be almost impossible his value is any lower 8-10 months from now unless he retires. If rumors of him going to a good team surface.....)
TE: Eric Ebron (I think his value will only go up from here. Possibly Eifert/Kelce levels)

All Sell-High Team:
QB: Don't really think there are any obvious sell-highs right now. The position is too deep for anyone to buy-high.
WR: Allen Robinson (I like him, but have him in the WR8-12 range. I'd happily sell him for top 4 prices)
WR: Antonio Brown (ONLY because he's getting up there in age, which isn't a production issue, but ageism these days is real on the dynasty market)
RB: Lamar Miller (Iv never been a believer. I'd happily sell for top 5 RB prices)
RB: Doug Martin
TE: Rob Gronkowski (I just think his injury history of old gets completely ignored at times, and Brady wont be around forever. Look at what happened to Graham once he left Drew Brees)
I disagree on Martin. I think he is a buy low because he is injured. I just bought him and Brees for a 1st and some prospects (J. Williams and D. Adams) in a league where I am competing. He has a very nice schedule after the bye. If he gets healthy as scheduled, the time to sell is a few weeks after the bye.

I took him as a throw in for an Eifert deal this offseason (pre-injury for Eifert). I was planning to cut him and roll with Ladarius. He's been a season-saver thus far!

Funny, I did something similar. Sent a big multi-player package for Watkins and got Rudolph as a throw in. Sadly he's done more for me in one start than Watkins has all season. I've never been a Rudolph guy, but I think he has a career year If he's healthy. I think MIN is going to throw more than they have in the past, and Diggs/Rudolph are the only two there to eat up targets consistently. I like that so far Bradford has been looking for Rudolph in the RZ. Injuries are always a concern with Rudolph though.

CMike is a sell high but I'd rather wait till after the Falcons game before I sell. I think he could have another big game there.
