Hey!
We’re officially in the window where perception lags behind reality — and that’s where the best trades happen.
Here are 3 RBs whose situations make them perfect buy targets right now:
#3 Trey Benson - the stash before the breakout
His 21-day practice window is open & most managers still think his season is a wash.
Before the injury, his role and efficiency flashed loudly: he played 55% of snaps, handled over 75% of backfield opportunities, and averaged 5.3 yards per touch.
Since he went down, this backfield has completely cratered, averaging just 3.5 yards per carry over the last 6 games.
This is the type of stash that can win leagues in December.
#2 Javonte Williams - elite role, disguised value
Javonte’s last few box scores don’t pop, but the usage is still exactly what you want.
Since the bye, he’s averaging 21 carries and 90 rushing yards per game, while playing 76% of snaps and ranking Top-10 in RB opportunities.
He’s also the lead back on one of the highest-scoring offenses in football, and the touchdowns haven’t fully caught up to the workload yet.
You’re buying an RB1 role at a slight discount…
#1 Kyren Williams - quiet week, loud buy signal
He just posted his lowest fantasy day of the year in a blowout win.
Even with that game, he’s still a Top-10 RB in fantasy points per game, averaging 15.5 carries, 72 rushing yards, and 9 total touchdowns on the year.
With a strong upcoming schedule and consistently positive game script, this is the moment to buy before another multi-TD week resets his value.
These are the 3 running backs I’m actively sending trade offers for right now, and you should too.
