Fantasy Football Week 9: Start Reed, Bench Robinson For Optimal Lineup
Start: Mark Andrews, TE, Baltimore Ravens
Mark Andrews has been a consistent force in fantasy football this season, and he's a must-start against the New Orleans Saints in Week 9. The Saints have allowed the most fantasy points to tight ends this season, and Andrews is coming off of a 7-catch, 116-yard, 1-touchdown performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has now eclipsed 100 receiving yards in three of his last four games.
Bench: Ian Robinson, RB, San Francisco 49ers
With Christian McCaffrey expected to make his 49ers debut in Week 9, Ian Robinson's value takes a hit. Robinson has been a solid fantasy producer in recent weeks, but McCaffrey is one of the best running backs in the NFL. It's likely that Robinson will play a reduced role in the 49ers' offense, and he's not worth starting in fantasy football this week.
