Dynasty values move every day. Most moves are small. A few are not. Here are the 12 biggest risers and the 12 biggest fallers in points since Oct 19, going into Week 8, and what to do with them. Values as of Oct 26, 2026, on our 0-10,000 scale, 1QB.

The rule: players valued at 1,000 or more on either date, ranked by raw points gained or lost. We show the top 10 of each list below. The value is today's. The change is today's value minus Oct 19's. We don't know why a value moved and we won't guess. We only know where it went.

The 12 risers added 11,693 points between them. Omar Cooper Jr. leads at +1,439 (+164.5%), now valued at 2,314. That is a rookie with 3 games played and 16.3 PPG, so the sample is thin. The percentage leader is Jacoby Brissett at +1,000 (+416.7%), but he started from a low base and sits at 1,240.

9 of the 12 risers are flagged sell. That means the draft market (Sleeper ADP) sits at least 35% above the experts. Caleb Douglas is the loudest: up 738 (277.4%), experts at 180, market at 475, and 3 games played. Chase Brown (+1,431, +41.7%) and Dak Prescott (+1,192, +96.3%) carry the same flag. When the price runs past the experts, you sell into it.

The clean risers. Ashton Jeanty is up 1,060 (17.2%) to 7,207 and is flagged buy, not sell. The market is still below the experts on him (5,362 against 8,282). Kenneth Walker III (RB3) is up 706 (8.8%) at 8,687 with no flag either way. Tyler Warren is up 993 (33.6%) and listed Out, so check his status before you pay.

The 12 fallers lost 12,551 points. Mike Evans fell furthest in points, -1,755 (-66.9%), to 869, and is listed Out. Davante Adams (-1,394, -53.1%) is listed IR. David Montgomery (-719, -60.2%) is listed Out. Our data doesn't say when any of them returns.

The healthy fallers are the interesting ones. Bo Nix is down 1,680 (63.3%) to 976 with no status tag. Amon-Ra St. Brown is down only 784 (8.7%), still WR5 at 8,264, with 17.5 PPG over his last three. Jared Goff dropped 895 (45.1%) while averaging 22.5 PPG over his last three. Jordan Love (-665, -29.5%) averages 20.8.

Two fallers still carry a sell flag. Rhamondre Stevenson (-1,154, -53.4%) and Derrick Henry (-985, -29.0%) fell, and the draft market is still above the experts on both. Derrick Henry is 32. A drop is not a discount when the experts were low to begin with.

Buy, sell or hold: 12 calls

The rule is mechanical. Sell means the draft market sits at least 35% above the experts. Buy means it sits at least 35% below, or a healthy faller is averaging 15 or more PPG over his last three. Hold is everything else, including anyone listed Out or on IR.

A hold on an injured player is a hold, not a bet that he comes back. Our data has a status tag and nothing else.

How to use this

  1. Sell the flagged risers first. If you own Omar Cooper Jr., Caleb Douglas or Chase Brown, price them now at the trade analyzer.
  2. Buy the healthy fallers. Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jared Goff both fell while still scoring.
  3. Check status before you pay. Listed Out or IR means the price can move again.
  4. Mind the format. These values are 1QB. In superflex, Jordan Love is 4,953 and Dak Prescott is 5,613.
  5. Keep watching. The live risers and fallers page updates every day. This list does not.

Should I sell a player whose value just jumped?

If the draft market is already at least 35% above the experts, yes. 9 of the 12 biggest risers meet that test, including Omar Cooper Jr. and Caleb Douglas.
