Hey!
Hope your week is off to a good start. Today I have 4 players you should try to trade for before Week 3. These guys are buy lows right now.
Take advantage while you still can:
#4 Tucker Kraft
His routes increased from 48% in Week 1 to 94% in Week 2.
It appears Kraft is officially back and ramped up from his 2025 torn ACL. It’s only a matter of time until Green Bay starts using him as a top option in their offense again.
Especially since Jayden Reed suffered a neck/back injury in Week 2 and is expected to miss some time. This opens up more usage for Kraft in the middle of the field where Reed typically operates.
Buy low on Kraft before he plays the Falcons beatable defense on Thursday Night…
#3 George Pickens
My panic level on Pickens is close to 0, he’s an awesome buy low target right now.
Pickens is coming off a game where he caught 6 balls and earned a strong 26% target share. But since he was double teamed most of the game, it was CeeDee Lamb who had the big day with 2 touchdowns.
But Pickens usage remains strong. He’s still earning targets in a passing attack that looked much better in Week 2 vs. Week 1. Buy low on Pickens…
#2 Emeka Egbuka
The Bucs offense has been bad. Baker Mayfield was outplayed in Week 2 by Deshaun Watson. Not good.
But Egbuka is the main bright spot in this passing attack through 2 weeks. His usage has been encouraging as he’s been put in motion at a high clip, put in the slot and has seen downfield usage.
It’s only a matter of time until his team-high 19% target share turns into some big weeks. Buy low…

#1 DK Metcalf
Yes, DK has been bad in real life. He’s had 3-4 drops so far across only 2 games. That’s not good, not good at all.
But at the same time, he leads the NFL in routes run and is Top 5 in total targets through 2 games with 19. Metcalf is the clear WR1 in this Steelers offense.
He’s coming off a tough matchup against Christian Gonzalez but Aaron Rodgers said he’s going to keep feeding DK and I believe him since Michael Pittman is dealing with a foot injury. I’m holding my nose and buying super low on Metcalf right now…
