Fantasy Football Week 9 Rankings – Running Backs PPR

To differentiate between all the “Start ‘Ems” on my Fantasy Football Start Em, Sit Em page, you can check out the Weekly Fantasy Football Rankings, so you can figure out whom to start between Player X and Player Y.

Below are my fantasy RB rankings and a set of links for my positional Weekly NFL Fantasy Football Rankings. Keep in mind that this list is for this week only; not the entire rest of the season.

The rankings are based on a PPR scoring system. Each player has Walterfootball.com’s projected stats and standard scoring points.

  25. Chuba Hubbard, RB, Panthers (vs. Saints)- 11 Points
    60 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 20 Receiving Yards.
