Week 9 of the NFL season brings us closer to the playoffs. After watching the Broncos last week maybe more people will think they are for real after what their defense did to the Packers. Also, is Carolina really that good? Seems like they just barely get the victory each week, but a win is a win. Still, I have to give the Patriots #1 power ranking right now.
DraftKings 11/8/15 NFL Week 9 Lineup – Main Event ***Hillman may play, but is dinged up**** Consider TJ Yeldon***
I really like Pittsburgh this week, playing an Oakland team coming across the country after a surprising victory. What comes good after a victory like that…. a good letdown game. And the Steelers are very solid at home and Ben should be 100 percent come Sunday. Check out the fantasy dfs lineup below!
Position | Name | Team | Salary | Projections |
---|---|---|---|---|
QB | B. Roethlisberger | Oak@ Pit | 6600 | Back from injury, Big Ben should be close to 100 percent and ready to have a huge game at home. |
RB | Ronnie Hillman | Den @Ind | 4600 | Big play potential and has been getting into the end zone as well. |
RB | Chris Ivory | Jax@ NYJ | 5900 | Look for the NYJ to run the ball early and often against the overpowered JAGS. |
WR | Martavis Bryant | Oak@ Pit | 5500 | Combo with Big Ben, he has huge play potential. |
WR | O. Beckham Jr. | NYG @TB | 8800 | What else is there to say. He could be the best in a long time. |
WR | Julian Edelman | Was@ NE | 8200 | A great WR in PPR formats and yardage leagues. |
TE | Benjamin Watson | Ten@ NO | 4000 | Really is getting better with age. Brees can still throw the ball as well, which always helps out the cause. |
FLEX | Stevie Johnson | Chi@ SD | 3200 | He is back and Allen is gone, so Stevie will have to step it up some. |
DST | Dolphins | Mia @Buf | 2900 | I have a feeling. A pick six or something will happen in this one. |
Total | 49700 |
Another week almost over. Check out Johnny G’s other DFS plays this week, including NASCAR!
Ronnie Hillman is banged up and expected to share touches. Still start him?
I was monitoring that as well. I am leaning to switch to TJ Yeldon for the Jags. He had over 20 carries and 100 yards last time out. He is 4800.
It is a tough call, each guy is boom or bust, but I think Yeldon is the better play as of now.
Good luck!
