Week 9 Fantasy PPR Rankings: RB

Week 9 Fantasy PPR Rankings: RB image

There's a bit less depth in our Week 9 PPR RB rankings, but that's just kind of how things go at this point in the season. With six teams on bye and numerous other players hurting, fantasy owners have to turn to other options that may not make for the most appealing fantasy start 'em, sit 'em decisions. I mean, seriously, does anyone really want to pick between Raheem Mostert and Trenton Cannon at flex? No, but at this point in the season, you have to do what you have to do.

On the bright side, the PPR format does create some other quality options because catches are worth more. Notably, receiving backs like Cannon, Duke Johnson, and Jalen Richard all get bumps up in the rankings. That creates a little extra value and depth at the position, which is something that is a bit scarcer in standard formats.

Week 9 Standard Rankings:
Quarterback | Running Back | Wide Receiver | Tight End | D/ST | Kicker

We do have some guys in these rankings that are banged up, and they will bear watching ahead of their games. Notably, Matt Breida will be a name to watch, as he is on a short week and has been dealing with an ankle injury since the 49ers' first matchup with Arizona. Other injuries are sure to pop up throughout the week, so we'll do everything we can to keep an eye on those. Thankfully, there's no 9:30 a.m. ET game this week, so there won't be any surprise inactives before the big slate of Sunday games really starts. 

Reminder: Check for updates through the week. And for analysis of key players, check out our standard RB rankings for Week 9For even more fantasy insight, check out "How You'll Lose in Week 9".
