7 NFL FanDuel Value Plays for Week 9
Trenton Cannon, RB, New York Jets
Price: $5,000
With Bilal Powell on the injured reserve and Isaiah Crowell working back from an injury of his own, Trenton Cannon led the New York Jets backfield in snaps last week.
He played 29 to Crowell's 25, and notched 6 carries and 4 targets. Crowell did see more work, with 13 carries and 1 target, but when you account for the fantasy football value of targets relative to carries, the value of their workloads was pretty similar.
Cannon has seen marks of five and four targets over his last two games, and with the Jets sitting as underdogs again this week, there should continue to be plenty of passing volume to go around.
Crowell ($5,700) is a solid value option in his own right. He has been the Jets' lead back all season, and negative game scripts haven't hurt his value too much, as he has at least 11 carries in four of the Jets' five losses.
