Week 9 Surprises? We Must Overreact
In Week 9 several high-end players had exploitable matchups and came through in a big way. Mike Evans, Tyler Lockett, and D.K. Metcalf were all expected to have big games, and all three finished in the top three in PPR scoring. At running back, David Montgomery scored two touchdowns as he continues to emerge as […]
The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 10)
This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]
Waiver Wire Express - Week 10 Lightning Round
We're onto double digits, as Week 10 approaches and with it, a whopping six teams hitting their bye. The Broncos, Eagles, Jaguars, Patriots, Redskins and Texans are kicking their feet up, meaning nearly all of you will need some replacement parts. To help you craft the best plan possible, here is the waiver wire lightning […]
A.J. Brown (WR, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: What a relief. After a great game in Week 7 (eight targets, six receptions, 64 yards) with Ryan Tannehill as the starter quarterback, A.J. Brown went on and upset his owners all around the nation being targeted just three times in Week 8 […]
Ryan Tannehill (QB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of leagues ANALYSIS: At the beginning of the season, not many people would have thought Ryan Tannehill could provide fantasy value in 2019, but here we are heading into Week 10 where he is worth an add in 14-team leagues. Tannehill was named the starter […]
Titans Defense May Lose Malcolm Butler For Season
Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that cornerback Malcolm Butler (wrist) may be lost for the season after breaking his wrist in the Week 9 loss to the Panthers. Losing Butler for the rest of the year would be a big blow to Tennessee's passing defense the rest of the way. That will especially […]
Delanie Walker No Longer In Walking Boot
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) said he's making progress and is no longer in a walking boot. He expects to play at some point in the not-so-distant future. It's good news, but it sounds like Walker will miss another game in Week 10 against the Chiefs. Jonnu Smith was a disappointment in Week […]
Jonnu Smith Disappoints In Week 9
Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith followed up his big day in Week 8 with a dud in Week 9. Smith only notched three receptions for 18 yards in a game where quarterback Ryan Tannehill threw for 331 yards. Smith will continue to be a low-end TE1 streaming option any week that Delanie Walker is […]
Adam Humphries Catches Four Passes For 65 Yards
Tennessee Titans slot receiver Adam Humphries caught all four of his targets for 65 yards in the team's 30-20 loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. Humphries has seen his role in the offense increase slightly with Ryan Tannehill at quarterback over the last three weeks, but he is still not getting the kind […]
Corey Davis Goes For 48 Yards In Loss
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis caught four of his five targets for 48 yards in the team's 30-20 loss to the Carolina Panthers. It was a disappointing day for Davis, who was Tannehill's third option in the passing game on a day where he threw for 331 yards. Davis has not developed into the […]
A.J. Brown Leads Titans In Receiving In Week 9
Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown led all receivers in targets and yards in the team's Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers, catching four of seven targets for 81 yards. Brown is beginning to develop into a solid WR3 option for fantasy with three straight performances of either 60 yards receiving or a touchdown. […]
Dion Lewis Has Best Game Of The Season In Week 9
Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis had his most productive game of the 2019 season thus far in the Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers. Lewis got off to a hot start, with four rushes for 20 yards and five receptions for 33 yards. He was being utilized as the team's primary back over […]
Derrick Henry Delivers Another Strong Performance
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry delivered a strong fantasy performance in the team's Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers despite getting off to a slow start in the first half. Henry rushed 13 times for 63 yards and a touchdown and added three receptions for 36 yards and a touchdown. Henry continues to […]
Ryan Tannehill Throws For 331 Yards In Week 9
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 27 of 39 passes for 331 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in the team's Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers. Tannehill also had his most productive game of the season on the ground, carrying the ball four times for 38 yards and a touchdown. While nearly everything […]

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 […]
Break The Slate: NFL DFS DraftKings Lineup Picks - Week 9
The NFL season continues to roll right along as we head into Week 9. With just 10 games on the DraftKings main slate - and only two with a projected O/U of over 50 points - we'll have our work cut out for us this week! Thanks for joining me here at RotoBaller, let's dig […]
FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 9 - Daily Fantasy Football
We are already at Week 9 and with four teams on a bye, along with an early morning London game, the player pool will be smaller than usual, and as a result, you may have to take some chances to win big in tournaments. Tampa at Seattle leads the way with a projected overall score […]
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 […]
Ryan Succop Activated, Cody Parkey Released
The Tennessee Titans activated kicker Ryan Succop (knee) from the Injured Reserve on Saturday and waived Cody Parkey in a corresponding move. Succop resumed practicing with the team last month and will kick in Week 9 against the Panthers. Parkey kicked in the team's last three games after being signed to replace Cairo Santos, who […]
Delanie Walker Ruled Out Against Panthers
Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 9 against the Panthers. It'll be Walker's second straight absence, and he's no lock to return in Week 10. The aging veteran has been dropped in most shallow leagues. Jonnu Smith should continue to benefit by Walker's […]
Corey Davis A WR3 In Week 9
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis appeared to be on the cusp of a breakout in quarterback Ryan Tannehill's first start in Week 7, but as we've seen before, that was not the case. Davis followed up his big Week 7 with a dud in Week 8 where he caught just two passes for nine […]
A.J. Brown Looking To Stay Hot Against Carolina
Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown enters Week 9 with back-to-back solid fantasy performances. Brown has definitely made a case as the Titans No. 1 receiver ahead of Corey Davis, but his depressed snap rate is still holding him back from a true breakout. The Titans and Brown head to Carolina to face the Panthers […]
Derrick Henry Has Great Week 9 Matchup
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has now either eclipsed 75 rushing yards or scored a touchdown in seven of his eight games in 2019. Despite a lack of involvement in the passing game, Henry's rushing volume has kept him as a relatively safe high-end RB2 throughout the season. Henry will get one of his […]
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. […]
Ryan Tannehill A Shaky Option In Week 9
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been productive in his first two starts for the team, totaling 649 passing yards with five touchdowns and two interceptions. Despite solid production out of Tannehill so far, he is not a recommended streaming option in Week 9. Tannehill and the Titans are set to play at the Carolina […]
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 […]
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 […]
