Welcome to Week 9 of the NFL Season! Each week, I'll be bringing you our famous NFL DFS Cheat Sheet with expert research and picks for cash games and GPPs. Here are a few notes about the sheet.
- We are LIVE with 2024 data this week!
- Green means GO (good for the player), while red reflects a poor rating/matchup. The more green, the better...
- CASH CORE pieces are highlighted with BRIGHT GREEN highlighter on the chart for extra emphasis.
- The "fantasy points allowed rank" reflects how a player's opponent ranked in fantasy points allowed to their specific position. The lower the number, the better the matchup.
- Passing and Rushing game matchups are again DVOA ratings as I regained access to that metric and find it to be super helpful.
- A play labeled "cash" is a higher-owned play recommended for cash games. A "strong" play is playable in all formats. "Slate-breakers" are some of my favorite GPP targets for upside or reduced ownership.
- Vegas and risk columns will all be updated during the week to reflect injury info, weather info, and the most recent Vegas info.

Deeper GPP Flyers

QB: Daniels, Prescott, Jones
RB: Dobbins, Pollard, Conner
WR: St. Brown, DJ Moore, Allen
TE: McBride, Engram, Gesicki

Week 9 DFS Slate Notes
Saturday/Sunday Updates:
Today is the day we WIN BIG!
Chase Brown was the late-week addition to the cores. He will be the chalkiest play on both sites today, so make sure he is in cash lineups. For GPPs, I like getting more exposure to Ja'Marr Chase, as he will be lower-owned than Chase and TE Mike Gesicki.
The cash backs for this slate besides Brown are Kyren Williams, Alvin Kamara, Bijan Robinson...I'd roll two of those three with Chase Brown.
The top DK values at receiver Cedric Tillman, Parker Washington, and Jalen Coker. I don't have Washington on the sheet but he could see a lot of targets today in a pass-heavy game script for the Jags against the Eagles and Jacksonville is down to only a few fully healthy bodies at WR.
I'm not full game stacking as much this week, more 1+1+1, QB+REC, or just 1v1.
There wasn't too much unexpected news yesterday or this morning so everything on the sheet and in this article is pretty updated.
Good luck this week, let's cash!
FAVORITE GAME STACKS:
DAL-ATL: Cousins-London-Lamb (also - B. Robinson)
LAR-SEA: Smith-JSN-Kyren (also - Kupp)
PHI-JAX: Hurts-Brown-Engram
