Fantasy football trade advice, Week 11: Buy-low, sell-high quarterback trade candidates

Only three weeks left to make the playoffs and fantasy owners need a strong quarterback to ensure any chances at a fantasy postseason. The QB position is pretty stocked with talent, but in this rapidly changing league, timing is just a critical as talent. So, who has the best value at this point in the season? Here are the quarterback bargains and best sellers in Week 11.

Tannehill has been playing well recently. Week 9 withstanding, he has thrown for more than 200 yards, scored one touchdown or more and has not turned the ball over in the last month. Week 10 Tannehill had one of his best outings with 240 yards and two touchdowns.

The next three weeks Tannehill has some favorable match ups, especially Week 12 against San Francisco. Any owners desperate for a QB, even for just the end of the bye week period, can pick up Tannehill as a streamer with potential.

Things are finally looking up for Flacco in Baltimore. In Week 10, Flacco threw just shy of 300 yards and three touchdowns against an awful Cleveland defense. Matching half of his touchdown total for the season so far.

Flacco’s success should continue down the stretch. The Ravens passing game is finally starting to click with Steve Smith’s return and Week 11 withstanding, Baltimore has a fairly easy schedule ahead. Flacco is a waiver steal that can pay dividends as a streaming option.

No doubt Mariota destroyed the Packers defense Sunday. He led the league in Week 10 with a season-high four touchdowns and threw for just less than 300 yards. He also had the top passer rating for the week. Mariota has been ascending the past few weeks and faces to soft defenses in the upcoming weeks. So, why sell?

Well, while Mariota is high on the passing yards and touchdown list, he is also in the top ten for throwing interceptions. Coming out of the Titan’s Week 13 bye Mariota faces Denver, Kansas City and Houston, three much tougher defenses for quarterbacks. Shop Mariota for a great return while he is at his peak.

In Week 8, Carr threw for a career-high 513 yards and four touchdowns. The next week he fell way back down to earth and tossed 20 passes for 184 yards, but he did not have a turnover. As a matter of fact, Carr has only tossed three picks all season.

Realistically, Carr’s performance against Tampa Bay in Week 8 will never happen again. Sell Carr to any owner that is still attracted to him now. Starting Week 11, Carr will have a rough ride for the remainder of the season. Owners that did hold onto Carr may have missed the chance to sell him at his peak, but if they sell him this week it is not too late to get a good return.
