NFL Week 9 DFS Value Plays

This week's salary-based value points to one clear standout: Davante Adams, priced at just 3000 with a projection of 14.0 points, leads all plays at 4.67 points per 1,000 in salary. That gap over the rest of the board makes him the top cost-efficient option on News Hub Fantasy's board for Week 9.

At quarterback, the value tier is crowded. Kirk Cousins (5300 salary, 19.0 projected), Malik Willis (5100, 17.5) and Geno Smith (4900, 17.0) all land near 3.4 to 3.6 points per 1,000, giving lineup builders several ways to save salary at the position. Matthew Stafford offers the highest raw projection, 20.5 points, but at 6200 he returns the least value of the group.

That's the call from the red zone. — Rhett
