Wide Receiver / Cornerback Matchups To Target in Week 9
In Week 8, the only unfamiliar faces to crack the top 15 at the wide receiver position were Chris Conley and Hunter Renfrow. Conley's big day came because Dede Westbrook was in and out of the game as he struggled with a shoulder injury, resulting in more targets heading Conley's way. Renfrow was fantasy-relevant because he […]

Week 9 Stream Team - Free Agent and Bye-Week Streamers
Now that the bye weeks are in full swing; streaming becomes a more viable and almost necessary strategy. Knowing who to add and when to start them could be the ultimate difference-maker in a weekly matchup.

Week 9 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Whereas last week was troublesome because there were so many usable DSTs, this week I did a lot of juggling because many of the typical top options have horrendous matchups. Below are RotoBaller's Week 9 defense tiers and rankings, or which defenses to stream, start and target off the waiver wire for Week 9 of […]

Week 9 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2019 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings
Week 9 is here, and, for some teams, the NFL season is officially halfway over. The fantasy season is even closer to being done, and wins and losses are becoming more and more important. You're jostling to get into the playoffs and ideally going for that first round bye. Kickers remain a fickle mistress. Indianapolis […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 9) - Targets and Avoids
Week 8 was one for the favorites, as only two underdogs won outright, the Chargers and the Eagles. This means that only a scant number of entrants were knocked out of survivor pools. And of course, you had those fools who forgot to submit an entry and were eliminated. How can someone still be alive […]

Song Remains the Same: Josh Gordon Tempting Fantasy Players in Seattle
When the Patriots placed Josh Gordon on injured reserve before Week 8, fantasy football players had a challenging decision to make on the unreliable (but always alluring) wide receiver. They were considering cutting him because his production had been disappointing to this point in the season and his knee problems were still an issue. Because […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for Week 9 (11/3/19) - Monkey Knife Fight
Week 9 of the NFL season brings another early start in London, and quite a few competitive matchups. Heading into the weekend, there is only one Sunday game with a point spread greater than five points. (Dallas is favored by seven at the Giants on Monday night.) The relatively close nature of the point spreads […]

QB vs Pass Rush Matchups To Watch - Week 9
Week 9 is here, and we have to figure out which quarterbacks should boom for us compared to the ones that could bust for us. Some quarterbacks could light things up this week and some guys are going to be giving the laundry crew a lot of work to do when the final whistle blows. […]

Fleaflicker's Most Added and Dropped: Week 9
Sometimes two statements can be both totally contradictory and totally true. Technically the Miami Dolphins are trying their hardest to win every game. Also technically, when you let Ryan Fitzpatrick throw the ball 34 times, you aren't really trying to win that game. And sometimes a professional football game can technically be played by non-professional football […]

Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch - Marquise Brown, Devin Singletary, Hunter Renfrow
Week 9 of the fantasy football season is banging on your front door with the force of a thousand fists. Hopefully, you're at a point in your win-loss record where you feel comfortable letting it in. Now, let's all take a seat on the couch as we once again turn our focus to the 2019 draft […]

Week 9 DFS Cash Game Value Plays For FanDuel And DraftKings
Week 9 brings with it a reduced featured slate, as not only do we have four teams on a bye, but also an early kickoff in London. Therefore, we are left with a 10-game slate, reducing our options. However, there are still plenty of values to be found for our cash game lineups. This is […]

Inside the Tent - Week 9 NFL Injury Insight
At RotoBaller, we can't stress enough the importance of keeping up with injuries and playing your best lineup week after week. Players are going to get injured, that's an unavoidable fact. What's avoidable though is making the wrong roster decisions based on the injuries surrounding your fantasy squad. If you want to dominate your leagues […]

Red Zone Risers/Fallers - Tevin Coleman, Julian Edelman, Derrick Henry
We are now past the mid-point of the season, meaning it is time to look at getting your roster in shape for your playoff push and beyond to the championship weeks. As fantasy owners, we know that not all touches are equal. A touch in the red zone has an increased chance of scoring a […]

Welcome Back, Matthew Stafford
The NFC North could be the best division in the league. Not only in terms of overall competitiveness, but in how terrifying each defense has been. The Bears, Packers and of course the Vikings have legit pass defenses in 2019. The best of the bunch is the Vikings, who currently rank sixth in team defense. […]

Jacksonville's Confusing Pass Offense
Outside of Leonard Fournette, it has been hard to consistently trust a fantasy option on Jacksonville's offense. Nick Foles broke his collarbone in Week 1, thrusting sixth-round rookie Gardner Minshew II into the starting lineup. The tight end position is simply not producing numbers. We've seen the likes of James O'Shaughnessy and Geoff Swaim attempt […]

Bell's Hell - Can Le'Veon Turn Things Around?
As soon as it came, it went. The trade deadline arrived and passed without the New York Jets moving Le'Veon Bell out of town as it was speculated in the hours prior to the market closing. The relation between the player and the organization seems to have been sour for a while now. It didn't […]

Week 9 DFS GPP Stacks For FanDuel And DraftKings
Hey there RotoBallers! Week 8 saw the dramatic return of Drew Brees following his early-season thumb surgery. The Saints just kept rolling, posting 31 points on the leaky Arizona defense. The Eagles and Lions also each hung 31 points on their opponents while the Tevin Coleman-led 49ers went crazy on Carolina with 51 points. The […]

Is It Time To Bail On The Bears?
In what seems to happen to a number of teams in the league, the Chicago Bears massively exceeded expectations last season. Their defense was firing and stopping teams momentum, and the offense was able to sustain drives. Hell Mitch Trubisky even looked like a competent quarterback! They won the highly competitive NFC North division before […]

Top NFL Betting Expert Picks For Week 9 (11/3/19)
Boy, both Indianapolis and Buffalo really crapped the bed last week. Also, I'm not sure how New England doesn't put up a 30-spot on Cleveland, at home, nonetheless. Last week was a step back in the process, but there's still plenty of football to be played. However, be sure to pay attention to my Twitter […]

Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 9 (Top 100)
Three of the top offenses in the league are taking a break this week, which could result in some lower-scoring games. New quarterbacks in Denver and Washington could lead to promising defensive performances from their opponents.
