As we’re at week 13 you’ve probably got it figured whether you’re a contender or a pretender, in your fantasy leagues.

Whether you’re intent on winning your fantasy leagues this year or planning for the future, I’m going to try and give you some ideas on where to go.
If you’re pushing for a championship and are looking for depth or that one last piece to get you over the line here are some ideas:

QB:

Ryan Tannehill
Aaron Rodgers
Jared Goff

RB:
Aaron Jones
Josh Jacobs
Gio Bernard - High risk
WR:
Allen Robinson
Robert Woods/Cooper Kupp
Jarvis Landry

TE:
Noah Fant
Jordan Reed
Robert Tonyan

Tannehill has a great end of season schedule and is currently +8.1 xFP differential, meaning he’s scoring 8.1 more FP per game, than expected.
Aaron Rodgers, like Tannehill has a great ROS schedule (3rd best) and is on a winning team. He’s in the MVP conversation and if there’s a non-competing looking to sell veterans you should be all over it.

Aaron Jones currently has a 59% rushing share and 17% target share
Averaging 23.2 PPG, higher than his xFP (21) another veteran player who could be bought from non competing teams due to his lack of certainty surrounding his contract

Gio Bernard is a controversial pick. This is pretty much riding on Joe Mixon not returning for the season
Since Joe Mixon has been injured Bernard has averaged 10 rushes per game and 4 targets per game. He’s the riskiest pick out of these as his future value is pretty much none existent, but could be a usual depth option ROS.
Allen Robinson has one of the worst QB situations in the league, but he is still managing to produce. 5 TDs and 829 and averaging 9.8 targets a game. His price will be steep, but well worth paying.

Jarvis Landry is currently outpacing his xFP by 0.5 (8.8 xFP).
Since OBJ got injured for the season Landry has averaged 7.2 targets per game and has 12th easiest schedule ROS for a WR.

The TE position outside of Kelce, Kittle and Waller is a bit grim. Noah Fant is a young player who could turn into a legit top TE.
Jordan Reed represents a few game loan, if you are a TE needy team. He will more than likely be very cheap but has very limited future value.

If you’re looking likely to miss the playoffs I like the idea of trading away your veterans for picks and trading for young players.
If you’re not contending I’d consider trading away players like:

Marvin Jones
Gio Bernard
Jamison Crowder

Players who have limited future value for non contending teams, but could be useful for teams who want to win now.
Players I’d consider trading for:

Ezekiel Elliott - No doubt that next season when the Cowboys come back revamped and healthy, Zeke will be back to close to his usual best. Current owners could be fed up.

Denzel Mims - Only going to get better, potential Trevor Lawrence at QB.
Dak Prescott - Current owners could be fed up due to injury and we’ve seen just how much quality he has when fit.

Tee Higgins - Potentially an expensive one, but Higgins is looking every bit the AJ Green heir apparent. With AJG likely to leave in the summer Higgins could boom.
Other mentions: TJ Hockenson, Dallas Goedert, Michael Pittman, Michael Gallup, Joe Burrow and Kenny Golladay.
Don’t be afraid trading. It’s really rare that the team drafted wins a championship.

If you’re not competing, load up on picks for the deep 2021 draft class/Trade for young players.

If you are competing, trade away those high draft picks.

Don’t get left behind.
