IDP Dynasty Bargains

In this article, we will be covering some fantasy football IDP assets that currently hold great value given their ADP on Sleeper and trade value using our Dynasty Trade Calculator. We’ll be looking at some players at all positions that can help provide depth for your squad, or maybe even project to get a nice bump in value by the end of the season to enhance your dynasty portfolio. Please note that the Sleeper ADP will be based on half-PPR, 1QB leagues that include both offense and defensive players
#1 Azeez Al-Shaair - TEN, LB
Sleeper ADP: 401
IDynastyP Trade Value: 2200
After swapping squads and signing with the Titans in free agency, Azeez Al-Shaair is already looking poised for a big role as the leading candidate to wear the green dot. We’ve seen flashes of IDP greatness from Al-Shaair during his tenure in San Francisco. In particular, the 25 year-old linebacker put up great stats in just 13 games during the 2021 season when he filled in for Dre Greenlaw due to injury. That year, Al-Shaair posted 102 tackles, 2 sacks, a forced fumble, 2 fumble recoveries and an interception. Not only did he show that in a full-time role he has the tackle floor that IDP managers salivate over, but also that he has a propensity for big plays. Pick Al-Shaair up if he’s available on waivers ASAP, and don’t be afraid to acquire him for late round picks if managers are actively moving him.
#2 Jermaine Johnson - NYJ, LB/DL
Sleeper ADP: 514
IDynastyP Trade Value: 1050
While Jermaine Johnson is probably being held by managers who drafted him back in 2022, the sophomore is a great target in dynasty startups with his low ADP at 202 on Sleeper. Even so, it’s possible managers are already beginning to panic about the 24 year-old’s rookie season with the Jets. In 14 games he recorded just 29 tackles and 2.5 sacks. However, Johnson only played 287 snaps last season, which isn’t nearly enough of a sample-size to analyze his potential. An enticing element about Johnson is that he has dual eligibility on Sleeper at both the linebacker and defensive lineman positions. That versatility is always appreciated with bye weeks and injuries. If owners value Johnson similarly to our Dynasty Trade Calculator and are willing to part ways with him for as little as a 4th-round pick, he is an easy buy entering 2023.
That’s all the bargains we have for this article! Keep your eyes peeled for more segments to this series, where we will continue to dynasty dumpster dive throughout the offseason.
