Week 9: Survivor Pool Contests | NFL Fantasy Football Rankings

Click Here >> Current Weekly Rankings, Waivers, Start – Sit

What a game it was between Chris Johnson and Maurice Jones-Drew last weekend. Both running backs had at least 175 yards rushing and both had two touchdowns of 50 yards or more.

This week Ryan Grant won’t have that kind of success, but he should have one of his best games of the season. With Packers’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers playing on a bad foot the Pack will probably lean a bit more on their running game to beat the Buccaneers.

Below we have our survivor pool rankings split into three sections, and they are studs, mid range and poor plays.

We hope these survivor pool rankings help you choose those stud players you need this week for a successful start to the 2009 survivor fantasy season.
