Value through each week · 2026 · SF TE+

Recalculated: today's model on the games through each week, valued at today's point in the season. It shows what each week's games did to his value, not the values Swindlr showed at the time.

Swindlr records its published values weekly from Oct 28, 2026; they'll appear here as a record beside this chart.

His projection (10.0 a game) doesn't clear a replacement-level tight end yet, so his value is all upside: the model's allowance for him becoming more than that, which it makes wider the further ahead it looks. It's the least certain part of any value.

What he's worth in a trade

SF TE+

Real trades · 52 in the last year · 46 in dynasty Superflex leagues

The last 90 days of the sample, dynasty leagues: 29 trades, 25 Superflex or 2QB and 4 one-QB, 22 with a TE premium. Every trade with him, by format →

Real trades are mixed on him

In 8 SF TE+ trades since September where he went alone, what changed hands came to about 1.2× his value here (the middle half of them 0.84× to 1.46×): no clear lean either way.

What managers actually gave for Michael in completed trades in public Sleeper leagues, leagues like SF TE+ first. Each shows the date and the league's settings; the price is what was agreed then, and the line under it is today's value, a different thing. Two-team trades of up to four pieces a side; none is left out for disagreeing with Swindlr. No league or manager names. 5 of them look lopsided at today's values (values move after a trade, with injuries and role changes, so a fair price then can look lopsided now); none is left out.
