The NFL kicked off November with some of the biggest divisional matchups of the season: a former underdog evened the score in the AFC East, the dominant team took the lead in the NFC West, and that Steelers-Ravens game was a real nail-biter right up until the last second.

If you’re competing for your own divisional title in your fantasy league, here are the drops, swaps and shops to make in Week 9.

Drop

Mo Alie-Cox

Alie-Cox had promising performances in Weeks 2-4, but after a knee injury sidelined him in Week 5, he hasn’t been much of a fantasy factor since then. While he recently returned in Week 8, his workload has gone to Jack Doyle and Trey Burton, meaning Alie-Cox is third in line for tight end work. He’s only rostered in three percent of ESPN Leagues, but if Mo Alie-Cox is still on your roster, it’s best to leave him on the wire.

Swap

Corey Davis

After a bye week and two weeks out with injury, Corey Davis was sitting on waiver wires everywhere until last week—he was picked up in 30.4 percent of leagues, and he’s now rostered in 52.4 percent of them. Chances are 50/50 as to whether he’s available or not, but do whatever you have to land the number one receiver in the Titans offense. In Week 8, Davis landed eight catches for 128 yards and a touchdown, so it looks like this guy is back on track for a significant season.

DJ Moore

NFL: Carolina Panthers at Green Bay Packers Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports

Don’t let his fantasy points fool you: DJ Moore is a high risk, high reward play, but he’s been pretty high reward the past few weeks. Three weeks in a row, Moore turned four or five passes into 93 yards each game, scoring three touchdowns in that three-game spread. While he doesn’t get a lot of targets per game, Moore is a deep threat that sees a lot of opportunities, especially for touchdowns, so he’s an ideal flex for the remainder of this season.

Chase Edmonds

NFL: Seattle Seahawks at Arizona Cardinals Billy Hardiman-USA TODAY Sports

Coming off a bye week, Chase Edmonds is ready to run the Arizona backfield as the top RB option in Week 9. With Kenyan Drake expected to be out for the next few weeks, Edmonds could be someone you want to trade for if you have a few extra wide receivers and lack RB depth. Edmonds is a pass-catching back, which bolsters his fantasy value enough to make him a safe bet as long as he starts.

Shop

Zack Moss

NFL: New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills Rich Barnes-USA TODAY Sports

In a game prediction I wrote for PatriotMaven, I predicted that Bill Belichick would force the Bills to rely on the run. While that turned out to be true, what I didn’t anticipate was that Zack Moss would be so good at it. In his highest amount of snaps this season, Moss took 14 carries for 81 yards and two touchdowns. It seems more and more like Moss is the future of the Bills backfield—if he’s available in your league, invest in him for the remainder of the Bills’ season.

Kendrick Bourne

NFL: San Francisco 49ers at Seattle Seahawks Joe Nicholson-USA TODAY Sports

As we said in Week 7, the 49ers roster is like a revolving door: each week, a new player gets injured, and a new guy comes to take his place. With Deebo Samuel and George Kittle out, Nick Mullens is likely to rely on Bourne, who is owned in only 9.3 percent of ESPN leagues. As with many NFL teams at this point in the season, Bourne is a sure bet because… he’s the only one left to bet on.

Logan Thomas

NFL: Washington Football Team at New York Giants Robert Deutsch-USA TODAY Sports

If you are reeling from the loss of Kittle and Bourne isn’t right for your roster, consider picking up Logan Thomas. While his target share is concerning, Thomas made the most of his catches by scoring a touchdown in each of his last two games. Although he got four targets, he scored second in most major receiving categories in Week 7, and he stands to benefit against the Giants in Week 9 and from being in football’s worst division this year.
