Welcome to Week 9!

Welcome back to another Sunday! Welcome back to chaos!

The DFS Helper should help point you in the right direction, but feel free to reach out to me on Twitter if you have any further questions! I try to respond to tweets throughout the week; I also have a weekly Twitter Q&A each Sunday morning to answer any lineup setting questions you have. Good luck this weekend everybody!

Tier 1 -- Cash Game Considerations
Josh Allen ($7,700), Derek Carr ($5,600)

Tier 2 -- Preferred Tournament Options
Jayden Daniels ($7,500), Josh Allen ($7,700), Kirk Cousins ($6,400), Tua Tagovailoa ($6,200), Justin Herbert ($5,300), Derek Carr ($5,600)

Tier 1 -- Cash Game Locks
None

The production wasn't huge, but the role was there for Ekeler the last time that B Rob missed action. Perhaps the most important takeaway from Robinson's absence is that we may see much more passing.
