Each week throughout the season, these values will be altered to reflect the player’s value for the rest of the season. Changes made to player’s value will be based on FantasyPros Rest of Season ECR, results from the season thus far, and The Wolf’s Rest of Season Rankings. But for the most part, the below values should generally reflect consensus rankings. The values provided also allow for comparing player values across positions, not just within one positional group.

Be sure to tune back each week throughout the season. We’ll be adjusting the chart, discussing risers & fallers, and pinpointing trade targets.
The trade value chart for each position is linked below.
Fantasy Football Week 11 Trade Value Chart: Quarterbacks
Quarterback Riser
You’ll never believe it, but the team with one of the league’s most talented quarterbacks is finally throwing the ball at a league-average rate. The Chargers have finally unleashed Justin Herbert and he’s thriving.
Early in the season, Jim Harbaugh utilized an archaic, run-heavy offensive approach. In the first month of the year, the Chargers had a -8.3-percent pass rate over expectation. Across the full season, this would unsurprisingly rank 32nd. Following their Week 5 bye, the Chargers have been far more balanced on offense. They hold a 1-percent PROE since then which comes in at 14th across the full season.
Herbert has been making his largest fantasy contributions during this stretch. He’s scored at least 19 points in three of his last five games and comes in as the QB8 during this stretch. If the Chargers remain a balanced offense, Herbert has the talent to be a matchup-based starter.
Quarterback Faller
A week after writing about Trevor Lawrence hitting his stride and climbing the ranks, he’s crashing back down. Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with his play on the field and everything to do with his health. But you know what they say, your best ability is availability.
Lawrence suffered an AC joint sprain last week and it is reportedly serious enough that it may knock him out for the season. At a minimum, it appears that he’ll be out in Week 11 which knocks his already fragile valuation.
If the injury is indeed severe, it would make sense for the Jaguars to shut him down for the year. The Jaguars’ season is effectively over and it doesn’t make sense to put your 275-million-dollar man at risk. It would be a crushing blow to the fantasy value of Brian Thomas Jr. and Evan Engram; it would also take a name out of the pool of weekly streaming options at quarterback.
Quarterback Trade Target
With the trade deadline and fantasy playoffs both rapidly approaching, it’s not a bad idea to make some moves to set your team up for a playoff push. The best way to do so is by trading for players with favorable schedule in the fantasy playoffs.
One quarterback who has a series of plus matchups in Weeks 14-17 is Kyler Murray. The Cardinals face the Patriots, Panthers, and Rams during this stretch, three games where the Cardinals’ offense should be able to thrive. All three defenses in this trio rank 21st or worse in both scoring defense and EPA allowed per play. Murray could easily be a top-3 quarterback during this stretch.
Murray has not exactly been the most consistent producer this season, so he can likely be scooped up for a price that does not reflect the strength of his playoff schedule. Consider sending out some trades for Murray if your team is a shoo-in for the playoffs.
