Fantasy value meter,
These players saw their fantasy values increase or decrease most based on their performances in Week 9:
Sizzlers
QB Drew Lock, Denver Broncos: Lock may have been on many leagues’ waiver wires, but after his first 300yard game, he shouldn’t be anymore. Adding 47 rushing yards and a score made him one of Week 9’s top players.
QB Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals: Murray has made the leap to superstardom this season. Against Miami, he was electric both passing the ball (283 yards, 3 TDs) and running (106 yards, TD) with it.
QB Tua Tagovailoa, Miami Dolphins: In just his second NFL start, Tagovailoa went score-for-score with Murray and came out on top – completing 20 of 28 passes for 248 yards with a pair of TDs and no interceptions.
QB Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills: Allen was near-perfect, throwing for over 400 yards and three scores while adding his fifth rushing touchdown.
QB Teddy Bridgewater, Carolina Panthers: Bridgewater was efficient against Kansas City, throwing for over 300 yards. Even more important: zero turnovers.
Fizzlers
RB Devin Singletary, Buffalo Bills: With just two rushing attempts and three targets, Singletary has lost ground on the depth chart to rookie Zack Moss, who has been handling goal-line touches as well.
WR Adam Thielen, Minnesota Vikings: Thielen last had more than three receptions in a game in Week 5. With Dalvin Cook running as well as he is, the entire Minnesota receiving game has taken a hit.
WR Darius Slayton, New York Giants: Slayton can be hit-or-miss in fantasy. He was a big whiff in Week 9, catching his only target for a measly 6 yards.
TE Rob Gronkowski, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: The entire Bucs’ offense struggled against the Saints. Though Gronk did see six targets, he caught only one for 2 yards.
TE Mark Andrews, Baltimore Ravens: With Baltimore struggling to gain traction in the passing game, Andrews should be a reliable safety valve. Yet he’s averaging slightly more than three receptions per game.
