Fantasy football trade candidates to consider for Week 2
Summary

In fantasy football, managers are advised to remain calm after Week 1's results, despite some trade frenzy in leagues. Eight players are identified as potential trade targets: James Cook, Justin Herbert, Colson Loveland, and Rashod Bateman are suggested as buys, while Justin Jefferson, Bryce Young, David Montgomery, and Marvin Harrison Jr. are recommended as sells. This period may present opportunities for trades, especially if other managers are panicking about their lineups based on early outcomes.
