Sell High: Ja'Marr Chase, WR, Cincinnati Bengals

To be clear, I don't advocate moving Ja'Marr Chase in dynasty formats right now unless you get a ridiculous offer. But in a seasonal league, I would come off of him for a couple of reasons.

For one, Joe Burrow is out for the year and he's just not going to put up the same kinds of numbers with Jake Browning. I would say similar things about Amari Cooper's situation in Cleveland.

But if you have Chase, you are not going to bench him because he's still one of the biggest names in the game. Are you going to sit him in favor of someone like Romeo Doubs or Gabe Davis? No. So why not see what another owner in the league, who may be really thin at wide receiver, is willing to give up for him.

If you have a solid wide receiving corps even without Chase, it would be worth it to consider trading him for a big upgrade at one of your other positions.
