Sell High Fantasy Football Players

While there are a lot of fantasy football players that are hyped up right now early in the 2009 NFL season, some of the players don’t deserve the hype in the fantasy world. Here are a few players you should look to trade as a sell high.

QB Mark Sanchez, New York Jets
Mark Sanchez is getting tons of press and is the darling of New York football at the moment. However, he doesn’t have very much value in fantasy football. Sell him high to get value out of him before the rest of the fantasy world catches on.

RB Willis McGahee, Baltimore Ravens
Early this season, Willis McGahee has been a touchdown machine. While he’s talented, it’s unlikely that he’ll keep up this pace — or stay healthy for the duration of the campaign. Go ahead and trade him now to maximize his value.

WR Mario Manningham, New York Giants
In Week 2, Mario Manningham was fantastic. But since then, he’s been average. With the Giants getting a number of wide receivers healthy once again, Manningham should see less and less action. Trade him now before the bottom falls out.

TE Todd Heap, Baltimore Ravens
Even though Todd Heap is off to a very strong start, it’s difficult to believe that he’ll keep up his current pace. He wasn’t very good in the last two seasons and has a history of injury. If a team is desperate of a tight end and Heap is your backup, make a trade happen to sell high.
