Hopefully, your NFL fantasy football season is going as smoothly as you had imagined after drafting your roster. We have your back with wall-to-wall coverage as it’s time to start turning an eye toward the playoff race. That includes the Week 11 fantasy football trade analyzer, where we break down key players to trade for and away.
Fantasy Football Trade Analyzer Week 11: Players To Trade for
The arrival of Week 11 means there’s no time left to waste. There are players with a value that is too low for their opportunity — it would help if you tried to swoop in and add these two players at a reasonable cost.
Rondale Moore, WR, Arizona Cardinals
No Kyler Murray? Not a problem for Rondale Moore’s production. Despite Murray being out in Week 10 and potentially a game-time decision again in Week 11 against the 49ers, Colt McCoy has been able to keep Moore’s value high as a flex option. Moore tallied a season-high nine receptions for 94 yards against the Rams.
Some fantasy managers will only care about the production Moore was able to manage despite less-than-ideal conditions. You may not be able to pry him away via trade for a reasonable cost from them. Others will look at Murray’s injury and believe they’re selling high on Moore, but we’ll be looking to take advantage of their stance.
Moore’s playing the best football of his season over the last three weeks, averaging eight receptions for 85 yards. He’s two weeks removed from his first touchdown of the season, so managers could be getting bored with him as a bench option. Regardless of whether Murray returns anytime soon or not, it’s clear Kliff Kingsbury has found that DeAndre Hopkins’ presence is opening more opportunities for Moore.
You can also take advantage of his favorable matchup in Week 11 over on Underdog Fantasy, where you can include him on a Pick’em entry this week.
Ranked as WR44 on the season due to a slow start, Moore is a great value compared to the other receivers in his range. I wish he had a higher touchdown rate, but his increase in targets means he’s making up for some of those limitations with volume.
Amari Cooper, WR, Cleveland Browns
I’ve been waiting to see if Cooper would be attainable this season, and finally, the WR13 on the season had a down week. He had only 32 yards on three receptions as the Browns’ offense flailed in Miami. It was the third-fewest yards he’s produced this season.
Cooper’s managers may have zero interest in moving him. They’ve stuck with him this long and have been rewarded with an auto-start at receiver. Cooper has three 100-yard games and five touchdowns on the season. He’s been a dud in only three games.

We’re hoping his managers look at the upcoming matchups against the Bills and Buccaneers as likely “sits” for their roster. Everyone on the Browns’ offense is looking forward to when Deshaun Watson becomes eligible to play in Week 13. But shrewd managers will be waiting until then, even if Cooper is shut out over the next two weeks. Cooper may also perform well even if the Browns are underdogs in each game.
This is the last time Cooper’s value will be this low — it’s easier for managers to wait only one week until Watson’s return than it is for two. It’s worth making a strong offer to land Cooper since he can help your playoff lineup.

It’s also time to cash in on some players who exploded in the first eight weeks but are unlikely to continue at that rate. That doesn’t mean these two players are bad or not worth having on your roster, but it’s worth exploring their trade value to see if you can land someone in a better situation to succeed through the rest of 2022.
Raheem Mostert, RB, Miami Dolphins
If you still have Mostert on your roster, it’s time to sell. Sure, everyone noticed that Jeff Wilson Jr. overtook this backfield in Week 10 with his 119-yard performance. But Mostert had a solid game himself, producing 65 rushing yards, 22 receiving yards, and one touchdown.
He still has value as a backup piece or Flex on a playoff-caliber roster: Miami’s rushing game has become much more explosive in recent weeks. This backfield went from unplayable with Mostert and Chase Edmonds to having two rosterable backs. Don’t drop Mostert in your league unless you absolutely need a receiver.

Instead, look to offload Mostert in a trade to a roster needing depth or a Flex option. With a touchdown in consecutive weeks and 543 rushing yards on the season, Mostert’s game log is intriguing, even as a second back.
He was always going to be a wild card for a roster anyway. Still, he might be even more attractive as a clear RB2 who gets red-zone/third-down touches.
Drake London, WR, Atlanta Falcons
It might surprise you to know that London is WR37 in the season. There’s a decent chance he’s not on a roster in shallower leagues. But if he’s on your roster, he finally had a noteworthy game in Week 10 that could boost his value enough for a trade.
London has dominated the target share on the Falcons, boasting an excellent 27.6%. However, despite the target share, he suffers from volume problems (and a lack of touchdown opportunities). The Falcons run the ball at the second-highest rate in the league, with almost 56% of their plays being a rush attempt.
His five-reception, 38-yard, one-touchdown performance against the Panthers was the third-best fantasy game of London’s season. He’s a fantastic talent making the most of a horrible fantasy situation. Upcoming games against Chicago, Washington, and Pittsburgh are advantageous matchups that could be selling points for prospective trade partners.
Maybe London on his own has little value, but he has more value today as a trade topper than he’s had since Week 3. The time to sell is now if you can.
