This week, in this dynasty roundtable series, we discussed high-priced and low-priced players to target, and then yesterday, we took a deep dive into sleepers to pick up. Now, we turn our attention to the players we should be selling.

Today's Question: Name a highly thought of player who should be traded away in dynasty. What type of return would you expect for this player?

Selling Running Backs

RB, Isiah Pacheco, Kansas City Chiefs

Jason Wood: Isiah Pacheco has a terrific story, joining the Chiefs as a seventh-round pick but working his way into an immediate role. He's been an important piece of their dynastic run for three seasons—at least when healthy. But the reality is, Pacheco isn't a particularly special player, and we really saw evidence of that when Kansas City re-signed Kareem Hunt mid-season last year. Hunt ended up being more effective than Pacheco in the same offense. The Chiefs re-signed Hunt again this offseason and also added veteran Elijah Mitchell.

There's a very real chance Pacheco is nothing more than a committee contributor in 2025 and beyond, yet he carries a top-20 running back ranking. In perusing the dynasty trade logs, Pacheco has been involved in a ton of transactions, and the return has ranged from low second-round rookie draft picks to swaps for players including DJ Moore and James Conner. I'd happily swap Pacheco for a starting-caliber player or an early second-rounder, but I don't think I would cave and give him up for anything less.

RB, James Conner, Arizona Cardinals

David Zacharias: James Conner is a warrior. Grit personified. An every-down running back projected as a solid PPR RB2 this season. But at 29, he's well past the age apex for his position. He twisted his knee last season in week 16. He missed four games in 2023, also due to a knee injury. Conner's wheels are getting ready to fall off.

The running back depth chart behind Conner is pedestrian (and also coming off late-season injuries): Trey Benson, Emari Demercado, and DeeJay Dallas. Benson is the highest-ranked dynasty asset of this group and is an RB4 (RB40). I could easily see the Cardinals strengthening this position in this year's draft, pressuring Conner's role.

If I'm not a contender or loaded at the running back position, I'm putting Conner on the trade block. I'd look to receive multiple young prospects and/or early picks in return. While the specifics would depend highly on my roster construction, an early second-rounder and a depth piece at a position of need would get it done for me.

RB De'Von Achane, Miami Dolphins

Sigmund Bloom: Achane was a fantasy success last year as a second-round pick in redraft, but only because of heavy volume in the passing game. His early Underdog ADP is in the early second, indicating that most fantasy players think his value is still increasing. The Dolphins running game stalled out most weeks, and Achane added an unsustainable six receiving touchdowns. How much do the Dolphins like 2024 fourth-round pick Jaylen Wright? They could easily go to the well again in this year's draft to add a threat to Achane's workload. The offensive line remains a question, and Tyreek Hill isn't distorting defenses like he used to. At running back, I would try to swap Achane for the 1.01 or Chase Brown and another asset or as the main piece in a package to get Bijan Robinson or Jahmyr Gibbs.

RB Derrick Henry, Baltimore Ravens

Andy Hicks: Derrick Henry was phenomenal in his first year with the Ravens. It was his best year since his 2000-yard season with the Titans in 2020. He will have value this season from anyone thinking they can ride him for another great year, with Baltimore hoping to organize a contract extension. Henry looks after his body well, but we know age is undefeated. Since 2010, the only running backs with over 1000 yards at age 31 or older are Frank Gore Jr., Adrian Peterson, and Raheem Mostert. Henry will be 32 by the end of this upcoming season.

The temptation for someone in win-now mode to trade for him will be high. If I had Henry, I would be looking for multiple younger players or a draft pick in the first two rounds and a younger player. Henry is a much more attractive back to manage this year than before his first year with the Ravens.
