The 2026 Fantasy Football Week 6 Trade Value Chart is built from The Wolf’s Rest of Season 2026 Fantasy Football Rankings, which finished 2nd out of 172 experts in FantasyPros’ Multi-Year Draft Accuracy rankings from 2022 to 2024. These values are tailored to a 12-team, full-PPR, 1QB league and factor in positional scarcity and real-world trade dynamics. That means quarterbacks typically carry less trade value than they would in Superflex formats, while elite running backs and wide receivers remain premium assets.
Whether you’re trying to buy low, sell high, or pull off a league-winning blockbuster, this Fantasy Football Week 6 Trade Value Chart is designed to help you make smarter deals. We’ll update player values every week based on rest-of-season outlooks, highlight the biggest risers and fallers, break down key trade targets, and share trade strategy tips to help you stay ahead of your league mates. Use the position-specific charts below to find fair trade offers and gain an edge throughout the 2026 fantasy football season.
FANTASY FOOTBALL WEEK 6 TRADE VALUE CHART: QUARTERBACKS
Quarterback Riser – Drake Maye (vs LV, 26/34 for 374 yards, 4 TDs, 7 carries for 25 yards and 1 TD)

After a rough start to the season, Maye was firing on all cylinders against the Bills and Raiders. Time will tell whether his early-season struggles resurface over the next few weeks, but any buy-low window you may have had on Maye slammed shut this week, and AJ Brown‘s impending return inflated Drake’s trade value even more.
Quarterback Faller – Tyler Shough (vs MIN, 16/25 for 96 yards, 2 INTs)
No quarterback is set up to do well against the Vikings in 2026, but Shough’s performance was bad enough to pump the brakes hard on his rest-of-season value after a strong start. Every QB is going to have tough matchups, so a down week doesn’t necessarily affect their value, but when they’re completely shut down like Tyler was, it can’t be ignored as a one-off. The Vikings should be his toughest defensive matchup of the season and there’s still plenty of time for the current QB13 in our Rest Of Season Rankings to re-establish himself into the top-12.
Other Quarterbacks Of Interest – Jayden Daniels (vs NYG, 17/25 for 199 yards, 9 carries for 103 yards and 2 TDs)
There are doctors around the NFL who believe it's a matter of when, not if, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels hurts his left elbow again.https://t.co/YBvfUQN5yT

Without the elbow issue, Daniels is likely a top-6 fantasy QB. With the elbow issue, his value will likely be volatile and polarizing. So it depends on what you want on your team. If you have another QB you can rely on if Daniel’s elbow acts up again, then Daniels can be an upside play for you or, maybe, a league mate wants to buy the upside on him now that he’s back. If he’s your only viable QB, do you roll with him and take on the risk for the rest of the season, or package him with another player at a deep position for a QB with much less injury risk?
Fantasy Football Trade Strategy Tips
Trade for Team Needs, Not Just the Best Value
In general, trade offers that clearly benefit both teams’ overall value, not just your own, will make a trade partner more cooperative. However, being mindful of depth concerns with all teams involved in a trade will only increase the chance of that cooperation. Be mindful not just of weak positional depth, but also of surplus positional depth across your league’s rosters. You might have a shortlist of players you’d love to be able to trade for, but if what you have to offer isn’t what your trade partner needs, your offers will likely fall on deaf ears. Say you’re weak at RB and have a surplus at WR. Teams that are strong at RB but weak at WR are naturally more eager to haggle.
Why Trade Calculators Aren’t the Final Word
Charts and calculators are a reference that can help find ideal trades, but they’re not gospel, and trying to make your potential trade partner think otherwise could shut the door on negotiations real quick. Even if your charts/calculators show the trade offer to be in your league mate’s favor, they probably have tools and references of their own, and the next time “But the trade calculator says” changes someone’s mind may be the first time.
How to Avoid Low-Ball Trade Offers
Speaking of bad faith, a trade offer that is too clearly in your favor puts you in danger of potential trade partners shutting you out not just for that particular trade negotiation, but any future ones as well. It’s a great feeling to get those kinds of lopsided trade deals, but the ones so bad they only go through 1 percent of the time likely aren’t worth hitting the send button in the first place. At their core, fantasy players aren’t complete masochists; they just want to have fun with it, and somebody sending them insulting offers isn’t fun.
