WR/CB Matchups to Target and Downgrade - Week 9

Welcome to Week 9 of the WR/CB Matchup chart. As the year goes on, the PPGA metric will become more and more predictive. Another important data point to be aware of is the injury report. Defenses missing key secondary pieces are far more susceptible to giving up ceiling games than units that are healthy. Offensive […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 9) - Targets and Avoids

About halfway through the season and who would have predicted the Bucs and Packers would be 3-5, the Rams 3-4, and the Falcons and Seahawks leading their divisions? It appears there's a changing of the guard not only atop the NFL but also with middle-level teams. It's not even halfway through the year and a […]

NFL Rookies to Watch for Fantasy Football Week 9 Including Brian Robinson, Drake London, Romeo Doubs, Isaiah Likely

The 2022 rookie class took a big hit recently when Jets running back Breece Hall tore his ACL in Week 7, ending his season. Even so, New York still had another standout rookie performer last week; wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught seven passes for 115 yards. Other rookies, like Tyler Allgeier, Greg Dulcich, and Isaiah […]

Dolphins Defense A Great Option In Week 9

The Miami Dolphins' defense has plenty of fantasy appeal heading into Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. While Justin Fields' improved mobility has injected some life into Chicago's offense, the system still has its flaws. For starters, the second-year quarterback ranks 34th in EYds, making it evident that the Bears don't do a good job […]

Jason Sanders Worth Streaming In Week 9

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders is worth streaming in Week 9. As the Dolphins' offense continues to hum along, its kicker should benefit by cleaning up stalled drives with field goals or adding extra points to touchdowns. With that said, there is still room for Sanders to struggle this week. He's going up against a […]

Mike Gesicki Likely Touchdown Dependent In Week 9

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki's Week 9 fantasy value could hinge on his ability to find the end zone. Although Gesicki is averaging 14.5 fantasy points over the last three weeks, he is largely touchdown-dependent. In fact, Gesicki has yet to amass more than 5.7 fantasy points during a game in which he does […]

Tyreek Hill Remains A Top WR1 Play In Week 9

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill has looked like one of the best playmakers in the NFL this season, and he shows no signs of slowing down. The superstar is the overall WR1 in PPR, catching 69 passes for 961 yards and two touchdowns. On pace to break the single-season receiving record, Hill will line […]

Jaylen Waddle Poised For Massive Week

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle could deliver enormous production against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. In addition to his constant must-start role in fantasy football, Waddle is a top candidate to occupy your DFS lineups and bet slips in Week 9. The second-year receiver is coming off a game in which he produced 106 […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Should Be Avoided In Dolphins Debut

Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. is expected to make his debut with the team against the Chicago Bears in Week 9. Traded from the San Francisco 49ers last Tuesday, Wilson has an immediate advantage since he played in a Mike McDaniel-led offense as recently as last year, and he has also had a […]

Raheem Mostert Poised For Another Solid Outing

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert remains a fringe top-24 running back in fantasy football heading into Week 9 against the Chicago Bears. On one hand, there is legitimate concern that Tua Tagovailoa will pass the ball so much that there's no opportunity for Mostert and Jeff Wilson Jr. to run. However, over the last […]

Tua Tagovailoa Remains A Top Option In Week 9

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been on a roll lately, and he shows no signs of slowing down ahead of a favorable matchup against the Chicago Bears. Just last week, Tagovailoa torched the Detroit Lions for 382 yards and three touchdowns. Now, he faces off against a Bears defense that allowed Dak Prescott to […]

Hopefully, that holds up moving forward. Even without the injuries, Week 9 is already taking away plenty of our usual starters.  There are […]
