NFL roster changes ahead of the upcoming deadline and shifting team dynamics are driving major adjustments in the latest Fantasy Football Trade Chart from CBS Sports Headlines. Backfields in New York and Las Vegas are among the most notable situations currently experiencing heavy fluctuation.
Evolving Backfields for the Jets and Raiders
The situation with the New York Jets presents a complex puzzle for fantasy managers. Braelon Allen has delivered at least 12.4 PPR points in each of his past four outings, topping 18.6 points in three of them while demonstrating the traits of a reliable three-down back. However, the Jets also feature Breece Hall, who commanded over 60% of the snaps and handled goal-line duties during the first two weeks while Allen operated on third downs. With roles currently fluid, evaluating both players on the trade chart remains exceptionally difficult.
Las Vegas presents a somewhat more straightforward scenario, as Mike Washington Jr. has proven to be the more efficient runner throughout the season despite limited opportunities prior to Week 8. While Ashton Jeanty’s rushing statistics have lagged, he maintains a strong role as a pass-catcher. Favorable upcoming matchups for Las Vegas could tilt usage in Jeanty’s favor depending on game flow, keeping him positioned ahead of Washington on the chart, alongside the possibility of increased rushing volume.
Understanding the Fantasy Trade Chart
Created more than fifteen seasons ago by CBS Sports, the Fantasy Football Trade Chart was designed to guide managers toward fair league transactions. The tool has since grown to accommodate half-PPR formats and leagues awarding four points per passing touchdown. Player valuations are calculated based on projected future production, upcoming schedules, and public perception rather than historical output, functioning simultaneously as rest-of-season rankings for the 2026 campaign.
Managers can determine trade targets by adding player values together, though a 10% value deduction should be applied whenever one side receives two or more players than the other. Certain players carry value exclusively in full-PPR or two-QB leagues and show no listed value otherwise, while unlisted players hold a maximum value of four points. Upcoming trades ahead of the November 10 deadline will continue to drive regular updates to the chart.
