Week 9 DFS lineups: Jamey Eisenberg's million-dollar tournament plays for DraftKings and FanDuel
We're down a lot of talent for the Week 9 main DFS slate with four teams on a bye (Denver, Detroit, Jacksonville and San Francisco) and some of the best players unavailable due to primetime matchups (Bills-Bengals and Chargers-Jets), as well as the early game in Germany with Miami and Kansas City. It should lead to some creative lineups.
I'm likely going cheap at quarterback and shying away from Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson, who are the best players available at the position. Those two should be awesome but expensive, and I'd rather save money at quarterback with guys like Derek Carr, Sam Howell, Gardner Minshew or Mac Jones.
I'll spend money on running backs this week, and some of my favorite high-end guys are Alvin Kamara, Saquon Barkley and Josh Jacobs. Looking at a lower tier, I also like Rachaad White, Kareem Hunt, Zack Moss and Chuba Hubbard. And Devin Singletary is a cheap option with upside since Dameon Pierce (ankle) can't play against Tampa Bay.
Wide receiver remains deep, but you can still spend heavily on A.J. Brown, CeeDee Lamb, Adam Thielen, Davante Adams, Michael Pittman, Terry McLaurin and Chris Olave, among others. I also like Nico Collins, Josh Downs and Zay Flowers. And my favorite value at any position is Patriots receiver Demario Douglas.
At tight end, you can pay up for Mark Andrews or T.J. Hockenson, but I also like the value you're getting for Logan Thomas, David Njoku, Kyle Pitts and Jake Ferguson. We've seen a lot of great tight end play over the past couple of weeks, so hopefully you don't have to overpay to still get great production at this position.
Here are two DFS lineups for you to play on DraftKings and FanDuel for the Week 9 slate. On DraftKings, this is one of the lineups I'll be using in the $3M Fantasy Football Millionaire tournament. For FanDuel, here's one of my lineups for the $1.25M NFL Sunday Million tournament.
I hope by the time Monday gets here we're all celebrating in a big way. But, just remember, even if you only win a small amount, you're still adding to your bankroll for the season.Â
