Fantasy Football picks: Five bounce back players for Week 9

Allen Robinson – I completely whiffed on my John Brown play against the Philadelphia defense, so naturally, I am ready to get hurt again, and go right back to the well and attack this defense once again with Robinson. However there is one major issue, Allen is receiving passes from the dead corpse of Mitch Trubisky so that makes me very hesitant. He is leading the team in targets, averaging around nine per game. He has not had the results you would expect from someone garnishing that type of workload, with only three touchdowns, and one game of more than 100 yards.

The Eagles are the worst team in the league against opposing receivers, giving up the most points at that position. They also rank 20th in DVOA against the pass. He has looked great while running routes, but as a I mentioned earlier this play is solely dependent on the production of Mitch who has looked like a complete and utter train wreck. Chicago has made a terrible mistake by drafting him, but as fantasy degenerates the only thing that really matters is how many times he can connect on passes to Allen Robinson. I will be expecting a big game out of him, on the off-chance Mitch can hit him on a deep ball or two, Robinson will pay off big time, and will likely be lower-owned considering his recent performance, and unstable nature of his quarterback.
