The byes are back, the weather is beautiful, and the number of key "questionable" players is seemingly at an all-time low (Puka Nacua, Josh Downs, Joe Mixon, Kyler Murray, Matthew Stafford). Nonetheless, tough lineup decisions still need to be made. In an effort to make things a little easier, 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.
