We have six byes (Giants, Cowboys, Steelers, Broncos, Browns, 49ers) and a couple of potentially worrisome weather spots, but the biggest worries this week is, of course, injuries. Key players like D'Andre Swift, Darren Waller, Allen Lazard, James Conner, and Damien Harris are "questionable," and that's on top of guys like Mark Andrews, Gus Edwards, Keenan Allen, and Jonathan Taylor already being ruled "doubtful" or "out." In an effort to make things a little easier for fantasy football owners, we've compiled all of our Week 9 fantasy rankings (PPR, standard) in this article to help with your last-minute start 'em, sit 'em calls. Consider it your one-stop cheat sheet if you've put off deciding who to start until Sunday morning.
