Fantasy: NFL DFS Draftkings Week 9 TE Edition
Welcome to all my DraftKings players. Every week I will be picking players that I believe will help you win some money. Check out DraftCrunch.com to get all your help in building your lineup and see the projections. They are all about transparency and bridging the gap between the 99% and the 1%.
In this post I will be giving you players that are must-starts at TE for Week 9. All these projections are through DraftCrunch.com.

Travis Kelce ($5300)
Kelce finally turned in an elite game, scoring 26.1 fantasy points. The Chiefs will start Foles again this week and he looks for his TEs. So another big game is not out of the question. Foles looks to pass the ball down the field more. Kelce is an elite option this week, hopefully he can put up similar numbers from last week with Foles getting the start.

Zach Ertz ($3500)
Ertz is one of those guys that has struggled this year as the Eagles have leaned on the receivers more. He still plays lots of snaps and so this maybe a week he finally goes off. I expect the Eagles to change some of their offense as they were very conservative the last few weeks. The Giants struggle against the TEs and so Ertz is nice option and he comes at a cheap price as well.

Antonio Gates ($3000)
It looks like Gates has regained some of the touches after Henry had it the last few weeks. He has had at least 6 targets the last 2 weeks and has scored a minimum of 8.8 fantasy points during that stretch. He is still River's favorite target. He is super cheap and is still a big part of the offense. I still cannot believe he only cost $3000, a must start this week.

Virgil Green ($2600)
This a cheap option if you want to punt the TE position. Last week he had one of his best games scoring 9.5 fantasy points. The Raiders are one of the worst at covering TEs and Green could have a decent game as the Broncos should throw the ball more. Worth a flyer as a punt this week.
