Dynasty Fantasy Football Advice 2025
Do NOT Keep These Players in Your Dynasty League!
Dynasty fantasy football is all about long-term success, and making the wrong keeper decisions can wreck your team’s future. As we head into the 2025 fantasy football season, there are five big-name players that you should sell now while you still can.
These players may have been fantasy studs in the past, but age, injuries, regression, and team changes make them risky holds in dynasty formats. Let’s break down who you should avoid, why it’s time to move on, and what to do instead.

1. Derrick Henry – The End of an Era?
🚨 Sell Now While You Still Can!
✅ 2024 Season Stats:
- 325 rushing attempts
- 1,921 yards
- 5.9 YPC
- 16 touchdowns
At 31 years old, Derrick Henry is at the danger zone for running backs in dynasty leagues. While he’s still an elite power runner, history shows RBs decline sharply after 30.
🔹 Red Flags for 2025 Dynasty:
- Heavy workload: Too many carries take a toll over time.
- Ravens eyeing a young RB: They’ve been scouting Ashton Jeanty—a clear sign they’re planning for the future.
- Trade value is still high: His name still carries weight in dynasty circles, but this could be your last chance to sell high.
📢 Dynasty Advice:
Trade him now before his value plummets. Dynasty is about long-term success—holding onto Henry for one more good year could leave you with nothing.
2. Christian McCaffrey – The Dynasty Sell-High Window is Closing
❌ Injury Risk + Regression Incoming
✅ 2024 Season Stats:
- RB8 Finish (after being drafted Top 2 overall)
- Missed 4 games due to injuries
- Zero rushing TDs in multiple games
CMC has been a fantasy superstar, but dynasty managers need to think ahead. He’s entering his 9th season, and injury concerns aren’t going away.
🔹 Red Flags for 2025 Dynasty:
- Age & Wear-and-Tear: RBs don’t last forever.
- Regression Risk: He’s no longer a lock for Top 5 RB production.
- Difficult to Sell Later: His value will only decline as more young RBs emerge.
📢 Dynasty Advice:
Try to sell after a few hot games in 2025. If you can move him for a young RB like Jahmyr Gibbs, Breece Hall, or Bijan Robinson, do it.

3. CeeDee Lamb – Overvalued in Dynasty?
😬 Safer Options for the Future Exist
✅ 2024 Season Stats:
- 111 receptions
- 1,194 yards
- 6 touchdowns
CeeDee Lamb is still young, but is he worth his current dynasty price?
🔹 Concerns for 2025 Dynasty:
- Dak Prescott isn’t elite: The Cowboys offense can be inconsistent.
- WR market is changing: Young stars like Marvin Harrison Jr. could outperform Lamb soon.
- Trade value is still high: If you can get a younger WR like Malik Nabers or Brian Thomas Jr., it might be worth considering.
📢 Dynasty Advice:
If you’re in win-now mode, keep him. But if you’re thinking long-term dynasty success, explore trade options for younger, high-upside WRs.
4. Tyreek Hill – Age & Decline Incoming?
❌ Don’t Get Stuck Holding a Declining Asset
✅ 2024 Season Stats:
- 81 receptions
- 959 yards
- 6 touchdowns
Tyreek Hill has been a dominant fantasy WR, but at 32 years old heading into his 10th season, his dynasty value is tanking.
🔹 Why You Should Move On:
- Older WRs don’t age well in fantasy football.
- Miami’s offense may shift focus to younger weapons.
- Still carries trade value—SELL HIGH!
📢 Dynasty Advice:
Move Tyreek now while he still has value. Age catches up with everyone, and his decline is coming sooner rather than later.

5. Lamar Jackson – 2024 Was His Peak
Massive Regression Incoming?
✅ 2024 Season Stats:
- 4,172 passing yards
- 41 touchdowns
- 4 INTs
- QB1 Finish
Lamar Jackson was electric in 2024, but don’t expect a repeat performance.
🔹 Concerns for 2025 Dynasty:
- Never put up numbers like this before.
- Two injury-prone years (2021, 2022) before his recent success.
- Baltimore’s offense is changing—less running, more balanced attack.
📢 Dynasty Advice:
If you can sell high on Lamar for a younger, high-upside QB like Jaden Daniels or Caleb Williams, DO IT NOW.
