**Top 5 Fantasy Football Picks to Elevate Your Roster Before Trade Deadline**

As the fantasy football trade deadline approaches this weekend, fantasy managers are eagerly looking for ways to enhance their rosters for a playoff surge and a possible championship victory. Here are five key players you should consider targeting to give your team the competitive edge in these crucial weeks.

**RB Breece Hall, New York Jets**

Breece Hall could be a game-changer for fantasy teams. Despite a disappointing loss to the Arizona Cardinals where he ran 10 times for 52 yards and caught four passes for 31 yards, he remains a strong candidate. Scoring 12 PPR points in this game makes him potentially more attainable in trades. The Jets have the most favorable schedule for running backs for the remainder of the season, facing teams that are highly generous to fantasy running backs. Additionally, the Jets are stronger than five of their six remaining opponents in power rankings, promising favorable game scripts. Hall's impressive average of 5.0 yards per carry over the last five weeks indicates his top-five fantasy potential if he gets enough opportunities.

**RB Bucky Irving, Tampa Bay Buccaneers**

Bucky Irving is another player to keep an eye on. His role as the primary runner for the Buccaneers has been consistent despite challenging matchups against teams like the Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, and San Francisco 49ers. Meanwhile, Rachaad White handles the receiving duties. Irving's ability to consistently run the ball at least nine times and secure at least three receptions each game makes him a reliable option heading into the final stretch of the fantasy season.

Leverage these insights to make strategic trades and bolster your lineup before the trade deadline. With the right moves, you could secure your place in the playoffs and beyond.
