Week 8 trade targets
Week 8 fantasy football trade targets for the 2026 season: players projected to start this week whose scoring in weeks 3 to 6 has run well below or above Juke's frozen pre-game projections, in half-PPR points a game.
Buy low: Chase Brown (RB, −6.1 a game), Patrick Mahomes (QB, −5.9 a game), Amon-Ra St. Brown (WR, −5.9 a game), Dalton Kincaid (TE, −5.7 a game). They have scored under their projections, so their managers may sell for less than this week's projection says they are worth.
Sell high: Aaron Rodgers (QB, +8.3 a game), Drake Maye (QB, +7.5 a game), Jahmyr Gibbs (RB, +7.5 a game), Ollie Gordon II (RB, +7.5 a game). They have scored over their projections, which may be the most they are worth in a trade.
A few games is a small sample: a gap can be bad luck or a real change in role. Check a trade on both lineups before you send it.
