CBS Sports Updates Fantasy Football Trade Chart for Week 5
Developing
In Short: CBS Sports releases updated Fantasy Football Trade Chart, highlighting Jaxon Smith-Njigba as top wide receiver.
CBS Sports has released its updated Fantasy Football Trade Chart for Week 5, offering guidance to managers looking to make fair trades in their leagues.
The Trade Chart, which has been in use for over fifteen seasons, now includes adjustments for four-point-per-pass touchdown leagues and half-point-per-reception (half-PPR) leagues.
According to CBS Sports, the chart is designed to help managers make fair trades without fear, emphasizing that past performance is not the sole determinant.
The chart advises that managers should deduct 10% of the value from any trade where one side has two or more players than the other.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba, the Ohio State wide receiver, has taken the top wide receiver spot on the chart, reflecting his strong performance.
However, the chart also notes that players not listed should be considered worth no more than four points.
In addition to the trade chart, the list serves as a 'rest-of-season' rankings for the 2026 campaign, providing managers with a comprehensive guide for the remainder of the season.
What this adds
The chart's expansion to include adjustments for different scoring formats reflects the evolving nature of fantasy football.
The emphasis on fair trades and the inclusion of a rest-of-season ranking adds value for fantasy managers looking to optimize their teams.
What's still developing
- With so much happening across the league, the time has come to consider making a trade to help your team.
- On the flip side, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, D'Andre Swift and Trevor Lawrence had disappointing outings.
