DraftKings NFL Picks Week 9: Chalk, Pivots, and Punts
DraftKings NFL Picks Week 9
INITIAL THOUGHTS
Last week was a small green week for me. Two players crushed it and I didn't have any exposure, Mahomes, and Metcalf. Mahomes was in a game I did not expect him to finish and I thought the 49ers would have a better plan to keep Metcalf in check while allowing Lockett to catch the intermediate stuff from the slot. This week looks like there will be some value on the slate after trades and cuts were made. The Seattle/Buffalo game sets up as the best shootout on the slate and the offenses from both sides will be chalky so we'll need to look at the best way(s) to approach that one. Those thoughts and the rest of my thoughts as I go through each game on the slate looking for a player pool for the week are below. Be sure to keep up with that player pool here, as I may not make it back in here to edit those guys into the article after Friday as the player pool evolves throughout the weekend.
Below is the chart of which players I am considering as Good Chalk, Pivot plays, and salary saving Punts.

Always looking for an edge, Jess has been ahead of the curve mining data and building customized spreadsheet rankings and projections while others showed up to draft day asking for a pencil and a cheat sheet. Avid DFS, Best Ball and Re-Draft player that dabbles lightly in Dynasty. When not geeking out on Fantasy Football, Jess can be found hiking, kayaking, swimming, playing tabletop games, cooking, trading equities, listening to good tunes and/or enjoying a craft brew or two.
