Week 9 Advice


Sup dude? This week I combed through 258 shitty fantasy football articles and videos so you dont have to and pulled out 2250 pieces of bullshit advice. We're covering 365 players & teams here. You can thank me later... maybe consider buying me a beer?

Bench Johnston — he’s getting far fewer passes thrown his way, had none last week, and a hamstring is making it hard for him to get open, so he’s a risky play right now. Only keep him if your league is deep and you want a long-shot gamble; otherwise sit him and pick someone steadier. Want 14 more details?
Malik Nabers tore his ACL and is out for the season, so he won’t help your team this year. If your league has a roster spot for injured players, move him there; otherwise drop him unless your league keeps players year to year and you can stash him on your bench. Want 2 more details?
Start8
Start Kyle Pitts — he's been getting a lot of targets and plays New England, who usually give up points to tight ends. He did limited practice with an ankle, so check the pregame injury report, and expect most of his value to come from catches and yards rather than touchdowns. Want 14 more details?
Start Michael Pittman — he's been getting lots of targets and has scored frequently, and Pittsburgh is one of the easier defenses for receivers this week. He's also someone worth trading for since that steady work looks likely to keep paying off. Want 12 more details?
Start Swift this week — he's been productive the last few games and faces Cincinnati, who are terrible against running backs. Just watch a nagging groin and his recent drop in snaps, and think about trading him later while other teams still want him. Want 23 more details?
Don’t start him this week — Green Bay defends the run well at Lambeau, Carolina isn’t expected to score much, and he’s likely to split carries so he may not get enough touches. Only use him if your league is very deep or you hear he’ll be the clear lead back before the game. Want 27 more details?
He’s been given a season-ending tag for a knee injury, so he won’t play again this year; if your league doesn’t give you a spot to hold injured players, drop him and pick up someone who can score now. If your league does let you keep injured players, you can stash him or try to trade him, but for most teams dropping is the right move.
He tore his Achilles and is out for the season. Drop him unless your league gives a special injured-player spot or you're saving him for next year, since keeping him just wastes a bench spot you could use now.
Spears coming back is taking away Pollard’s most important touches, and he’s had several low-scoring games plus a possible neck issue. Sit him this week against the Chargers and consider trading him until his role gets clearer. Want 10 more details?
Keep Brandon Aiyuk on your bench if you have the room — he could be very valuable when he returns from a serious knee injury, but expect a gradual comeback so don’t start him until he’s practicing and catching passes. If you need the roster spot right now in a short-term league, it’s fine to drop him. Want 2 more details?
