Sutton was the WR10 in PPR points per game from Week 8 onward last season, and is still the alpha receiver on the Denver Broncos.<\/p>\n<p>The veteran caught one of his four targets in Week 2, but was denied several big plays by defensive pass interference and holding penalties. Troy Franklin had what felt like a breakout performance against the Indianapolis Colts, which should help with any buy-low attempts.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Courtland Sutton is still good at football \u2705 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/l4QwcJU1e9\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/l4QwcJU1e9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Kyle Yates (@kyleynfl) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kyleynfl\/status\/1964804969120616764?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">September 7, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Sutton caught six of nine targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Week 1 (tied \u2013 WR12 overall). His production for the rest of the year should look far more similar to that than his outlier Week 2 numbers.<\/p>\n<h2>Football Travis Hunter, Jacksonville Jaguars<\/h2>\n<p>The Jacksonville Jaguars\u2019 passing attack has left much to be desired after two weeks, with Trevor Lawrence unable to get the best out of his receivers thus far. Frustrations boiled over in Week 2 when head coach Liam Coen visibly lost his temper with his quarterback, with Lawrence waving away the criticism.<\/p>\n<p>While the relationship between the pair is something to monitor, Coen is a highly respected offensive mind and should be trusted to get his offense on track. Fantasy managers are likely unwilling to sell low on Brian Thomas Jr. after only two weeks (though, by all means, try), but rookie Travis Hunter should be available.<\/p>\n<p>There were doubts about Hunter\u2019s usage before the season, and Coen\u2019s suggestion that his defensive snaps will increase throughout the year will have managers worried. Hunter\u2019s increased defensive responsibilities, though, shouldn\u2019t impact his role as a full-time receiver.<\/p>\n<p><b>READ MORE: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.profootballnetwork.com\/fantasy-football\/nfl-buy-low-sell-high-trade-targets-week-3\/\"><b>Fantasy Football Buy Low, Sell High In Week 3: Trade Targets Include Sam Darnold, D\u2019Andre Swift, and Travis Hunter<\/b><span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The former Colorado standout is an electric playmaker with great hands and elusiveness after the catch. If he\u2019s available in your league(s), buying low on a first-round rookie receiver after only two weeks is a no-brainer.<\/p>\n<h2>Football Trade Targets to Sell: Jaylen Waddle, Miami Dolphins<\/h2>\n<p>No matter how much Jaylen Waddle disappoints, there will always be fantasy managers who will buy into the Dolphins receiver. Miami just played a Patriots defense that looks like one of the weakest in the NFL, and Waddle capitalized with a touchdown.<\/p>\n<p>He also caught five of his six targets for 68 yards, and heading into Monday Night Football, he is the WR14 overall on the week. That will likely be enough for someone to offer low-end WR2 value for the Dolphins receiver, with many receivers underperforming through two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Waddle has flashed in the past, but the Dolphins will have a harder time against better opposition, and there will likely be plenty of disappointing weeks ahead.<\/p>\n<h2>Football DeAndre Hopkins, Baltimore Ravens<\/h2>\n<p>DeAndre Hopkins has certainly made his mark in Baltimore Ravens colors over the opening weeks of the season. The veteran receiver has\u00a0contributed 99 receiving yards and two touchdowns through two weeks and is the WR21 on the year, with Week 2 almost over.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Courtland Sutton is still good at football \u2705 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/l4QwcJU1e9\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/l4QwcJU1e9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Kyle Yates (@kyleynfl) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kyleynfl\/status\/1964804969120616764?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">September 7, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That being said, Hopkins\u2019 fantasy production is primarily down to his touchdowns, with the receiver\u2019s impressive numbers coming from only four targets in two weeks.
