The 2025 fantasy football season is just weeks away, and all managers should be preparing for the upcoming year. For those playing in Dynasty leagues, this means they should explore the trade to fully optimize their rosters. The best strategy for this process is often to sell high and buy as low as possible.

Here are some candidates to do so from the AFC West division.

Dynasty Fantasy Football buys and sells for AFC West in 2025

AFC West trade targets

#1 - BUY: Evan Engram, TE, Denver Broncos

Evan Engram is coming off a disappointing fantasy football season, but most of this can be explained by an injury. He still averaged the second-most receptions per game in his entire career, despite missing half of the year. This makes him a sneaky sleeper this season, especially after his move to the Denver Broncos, who need reliable receiving weapons.

#2 - SELL: JK Dobbins, RB, Denver Broncos

JK Dobbins has consistently proven to be an elite running back when he's healthy, but unfortunately, this has been his biggest challenge. His injury risks make him a sell candidate alone, but even more so now that he's with the Denver Broncos. They have been using a committee approach to their backfield, and they also selected RJ Harvey during the 2025 NFL draft this year.

#3 - BUY: Justin Herbert, QB, LA Chargers

Justin Herbert quietly finished as the QB12 or better for the fourth time in five seasons with the LA Chargers last year. Their offseason moves suggest that he could even take another step forward this year with improved wide receivers. Adding Keenan Allen and rookie Tre Harris makes this young quarterback an attractive investment for Dynasty leagues.

#4 - SELL: Travis Kelce, TE, Kansas City Chiefs

Travis Kelce has been one of the best fantasy football tight ends in NFL history, but his elite run with the Kansas City Chiefs may be coming to an end. His incredible streak of finishing as the TE3 or better for eight consecutive seasons came to an end last year, and he's not in an ideal spot to bounce back. He is already 35 years old and has deep offense to compete with for targets.

#5 - BUY: Jakobi Meyers, WR, Las Vegas Raiders

Jakobi Meyers quietly performed as one of the best fantasy football wide receivers last year following Davante Adams' departure from the Las Vegas Raiders. Meyers ranked as the WR18 in fantasy points per game from that point forward, suggesting upside as their featured wide receiver. He will also get an upgraded quarterback in Geno Smith, making him a cheaper high-upside trade target.
