**UPDATED: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3 @ 7:05 PM ET**

Welcome to the Week 9 NFL DFS Watch List!

With another six teams on a bye this week and many of the top stars facing some tough match-ups, it's time to really dig deep and find some players who can offer us a strong return even on the smallest of investments. It almost feels like a heavier GPP week than it does cash games once again. There could be a heavy overlap in cash games this week which means the paylines may be a little higher and it becomes tougher to cash in multi-entry contests. If you're new to DFS, you may want to look for single-entry 50/50s and Double-Ups. We can cover that a little more in-depth as the week progresses. For now, let's see who looks good in their match-ups this week.

If you're new to the DFS Watch List, feel free to go back and look at the first eight weeks, so you can see how the process works.

Example Lineups for contests which include the Thursday game:

FanDuel: Alex Smith, LeSean McCoy, Adrian Peterson, Michael Thomas, Michael Crabtree, Devin Funchess, Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Robbie Gould, Jaguars Defense

Draft Kings: Alex Smith, LeSean McCoy, Adrian Peterson, Michael Thomas, Michael Crabtree, Sammy Watkins, Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Russell Shepard, Bills Defense

Players I am considering for contests which include the Thursday night game:

Tyrod Taylor, LeSean McCoy, Robby Anderson, Jordan Matthews, Andre Holmes, Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Bills Defense

ADDED - see below for analysis (11/2)

Todd Gurley, RB LAR

Kareem Hunt, RB KC

Doug Martin, RB TB 

Christian McCaffrey, RB CAR

Curtis Samuel, WR CAR

Jarvis Landry, WR MIA

Julio Jones, WR ATL

Andre Holmes, WR BUF

Sammy Watkins, WR LAR

Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE NYJ

ADDED - see below for analysis (11/2)

Ezekiel Elliott, RB DAL

Aaron Jones, RB GB

Doug Baldwin, WR SEA

REMOVED (11/2)

Deshaun Watson, QB HOU -- suffered torn ACL at practice Thursday; out for the season

Joe Mixon, RB CIN -- issues persist for the offensive line and Mixon isn't showing strength between the tackles. He'll have some value in PPR formats if he continues to see passes, but outside of a deep, deep, tournament dart, I'm staying away.

REMOVED (11/3)

Alfred Morris, RB DAL -- With Zeke back, there is no reason to even discuss him.

Players removed after having played Thursday: Tyrod Taylor, LeSean McCoy, Jordan Matthews, Andre Holmes, Robby Anderson, Austin Seferian-Jenkins
