Start ‘Em and Sit ‘Em Week 9

BYEMAGEDON is upon us! 

Each position in Week 9 Start ‘Em and Sit ‘Em gives you 5 players that I consider to be locked in starters. There are also 5 strong starters that I believe will finish inside the top 12 of their position group. Then each has 5 Tier 2 options – expected to reach the top 24 based on matchups and usage. For deeper leagues, there are also 5 flex options with upside that could break the top 24. Finally, 20 starting players that I consider sits for the week based on matchups, questionable status and usage.

Let’s waste no more time and dive straight into the Week Nine start / sits.

Teams on bye in week 9: Browns, Giants, Steelers, Broncos, Cowboys & 49ers.
