Rico Dowdle, RB, Carolina Panthers
At the time of writing, Rico Dowdle has yet to play his Monday-night matchup against the 49ers, but has emerged as a trustworthy RB2 with RB1 upside in recent weeks. That could well continue in Santa Clara, which would aid his trade value, but given the premium on running backs at this stage of the season, it shouldn’t matter too much.
Dowdle is a talented back and is probably still underrated, but he faces some tricky matchups down the road, which would be better avoided if possible. First, he faces the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13, who have emerged as one of the most formidable run defenses in the NFL.
If you’ve already made the playoffs in your league, then that won’t bother you. However, the Panthers then face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Seattle Seahawks in Weeks 16 and 17. You shouldn’t be desperate to move Dowdle, but there are similar RB2s with far better playoff schedules and better values in other positions if you’re in need.
Zonovan Knight, RB, Arizona Cardinals
The following two backs aren’t going to fetch you much compensation, but are worth moving if you have enough depth not to be desperate in the coming weeks. With the Arizona Cardinals rotating backs in the absence of their two starters, James Conner and Trey Benson, Zonovan Knight has taken on the bulk of goal-line work.
There is a chance he could keep that role beyond Benson’s return, but that’s far from guaranteed. Benson was a limited participant in practice all last week and could well make his return in Week 13.
Even without Benson, though, the Cardinals face the Buccaneers, the Rams, and the Houston Texans in the next three weeks, so Knight is, at best, a true desperation flex. The runner has totaled 27.7 PPR points over his last two games, and that should be enough to see you get something for him in a trade.
