A week is long in dynasty. The Week 8 list had 16 names. 10 of them still carry a flag today and 6 do not. This Week 9 board shows who dropped off, who joined, and which trades the calculator calls fair.
A buy-low is a player the dynasty draft market prices at least 35% under the expert consensus. A sell-high is the reverse, at least 35% over. Only players valued at 1,000 or more count, and today that is 22 buys and 33 sells. Values as of Nov 4, 2026. Fantasy Football Calculator had no dynasty data that day, so the market side is Sleeper only. The always-current version lives on the buy-low and sell-high page.
Who lost a flag since Week 8
| Player | Oct 28 value | Value now | Change | Flag then | Flag now | Status now |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zay Flowers | 7,213 | 5,069 | -2,144 (-29.7%) | Sell | None | Active |
| Jeremiyah Love | 4,163 | 5,641 | +1,478 (+35.5%) | Buy | None | IR |
| Chase Brown | 4,955 | 4,053 | -902 (-18.2%) | Sell | None | Active |
| Malik Nabers | 6,928 | 7,404 | +476 (+6.9%) | Buy | None | Active |
| Lamar Jackson | 4,304 | 4,673 | +369 (+8.6%) | Buy | None | Out |
| DeVonta Smith | 4,343 | 4,519 | +176 (+4.1%) | Buy | None | Questionable |
7 of the 16 names are up since Oct 28 and 9 are down. The biggest drop belongs to Zay Flowers: 7,213 to 5,069, a fall of 2,144. His market price is now 15% under the experts, short of a flag either way. The biggest rise belongs to Jeremiyah Love, up 1,478 to 5,641. He is listed IR and the data carries no draft market price for him, so there is no gap to measure.
Malik Nabers climbed 476 and his discount shrank to 25%. DeVonta Smith sits 31% under. Lamar Jackson is listed Out. Chase Brown slid 902 and the market now matches the experts at 0%. None of the six is a trade target by the flag rule anymore.
Among the 10 that kept their flag, Ashton Jeanty lost the most value, down 1,350 to 5,857, and his market price is still 76% under the experts. Bucky Irving gained the most, up 1,345 to 5,132, with the market 124% over. Tee Higgins added 828.

18 of today's 22 buy flags were not on the Week 8 list. These five have the highest values, and all five are listed healthy. Colston Loveland has the widest gap of the group at 63% and scores 16.6 PPR points a game over his last three against 9.2 for the season. His value is up 549 since Oct 28, so he is not as cheap as he was.
Two quarterbacks sit here. Caleb Williams is 3,033 in 1QB and 6,614 in superflex. Jayden Daniels is 2,856 in 1QB and 6,435 in superflex, down 362 since Oct 28. Jaylen Waddle is down 359 and is a 57% discount at 9.9 PPG.

Christian Watson is the only one of these five with an injury tag (Questionable). All five are up since Oct 28. D'Andre Swift gained the most, 1,263, and carries the widest gap of the five at +157%. He scores 23.3 PPG over his last three. Rashee Rice is up 988 with the market 70% over the experts. Selling either is a bet on the price, not a call that they stop scoring.

Six trades that are fair on paper
Each sells a high-market name for two buy-low pieces. All six land inside the calculator's fair range, within 5% after its depth discount, and the widest gap here is under 3%.
| You give | You get | Calculator totals | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Christian Watson | Caleb Williams + Colston Loveland | 5,271 vs 5,222 | 0.9% |
| Rashee Rice | Jayden Daniels + Denzel Boston | 4,464 vs 4,420 | 1.0% |
| Matthew Golden | Rome Odunze + Omarion Hampton | 4,332 vs 4,201 | 3.0% |

| Javonte Williams | Emeka Egbuka + Makai Lemon | 4,658 vs 4,666 | 0.2% |
| Chuba Hubbard | Kyle Pitts Sr. + Jaylen Waddle | 3,528 vs 3,565 | 1.0% |
In 1 of the six, a player you get back is listed Questionable (Emeka Egbuka), and Christian Watson on the give side carries the same tag. Check the status before you send it. Two-for-one deals also cost you a roster spot. Run your own version in the dynasty trade analyzer.
A short Week 9 checklist
- Check the format. These are 1QB values. In superflex the quarterbacks jump, as Caleb Williams shows.
- Read the status column before you pay for a discount.
- Look at the last-3 average. A buy with a falling average is a hold, not a bargain.
- Price the other side. The trade value chart shows what a fair return looks like for your sell.
- Re-check before you offer. These are Nov 4, 2026 values, and values move every day.
