1. Devonta Freeman (Atlanta Falcons) (Sell value- High):

Freeman is a prime trade target because he is the highest scoring running back in fantasy football so far and that is beyond a shock. Freeman has made it look easy but realistically how long can he keep it up? Freeman has been the main guy in this Falcons running game because Tevin Coleman has been dealing with broken ribs. Now that Coleman is returning expect Freeman to not only lose touches but eventually lose his stranglehold on the position. Freeman can be sold for a number 1 wide receiver and another good 2nd or 3rd round pick currently.

2. David Johnson (Arizona Cardinals) (Sell Value- Moderate):

Johnson is a lot like Lance Dunbar in the sense that he can catch passes and has a quarterback that trusts throwing the ball to him. The only problem is that he is about to see the field less. Bruce Arians already has stated he doesn't trust rookies with big assignments so Johnson being the primary pass catcher or running back is not in the Cards this year. Johnson can be traded anywhere from a second round WR to a bunch of bye week replacements but he has put up more points than most running backs so negotiate carefully.

3. Karlos Williams (Buffalo Bills) (Sell Value- Low):

Williams is the main guy in Buffalo's running game but is dealing with a concussion. The concussion may keep him out of his week 5 matchup and realistically when LeSean McCoy returns his value will decrease rapidly. At least for Williams you could probably find someone trying to trade a WR3 or at least some value for the injured running back.

4. Justin Forsett (Baltimore Ravens) (Sell Value- Moderate):

Forsett is more of a yardage back than a goal line brawler, he will rack up a lot of yards but stay out of the end zone, and in fact he does not have a rushing touchdown all season long. His week 4 game should be enough to entice anyone in your league and he could be traded for an RB3 that gets into the end zone like Giovani Bernard and a strong WR or QB.

Jeremy Hill (Cincinnati Bengals) (Sell Value-High): 

Hill has been the biggest bust of the fantasy year so far however his 20 plus point game against the Chiefs may have turned some of those doubters into believers. Hill can be should be traded high but the goal should be getting multiple players that will increase your teams value. So even if you cannot land a Demaryius Thomas or Aaron Rodgers you could still probably get a Carson Palmer and a solid wide receiver or running back. Whatever you do don't trade Hill for someone straight up out of frustration, like Dion Lewis.
