In this post I will be giving you players that are must-starts for Week 9. All these projections are through DraftCrunch.com.

Aaron Rodgers QB ($7800)
Rodgers is the most expensive QB on the slate but has another great match-up at home against the Colts. Even at this price he is still a must-start because they have no running game at all. Rodgers is the QB and RB on this team. The 60 yards on the ground last week is just an added bonus and I expect more of that this week as the Packers still don't have a healthy RB.

Ezekiel Elliott RB ($7900)
Another expensive player but is in a great spot to put up big numbers. The Browns have a horrible defense and the Cowboys should be leading in this one. Elliot gets all the touches out of the back field and is the red-zone back as well. He could easily get 100 plus yards on the ground and multiple touchdowns. Worth a start because others may shy away because of the price.

Jarvis Landry WR ($7100)
Landry is one of those consistent guys every week because he can usually get 5-7 catches each week. The yards are usually the issue. This week he gets the Jets secondary and their poor tacking. Landry will have numerous chances to break one of those short passes and take it to the house. He is a nice sneaky elite option this week.

Emmanuel Sanders WR ($6300) and Demaryius Thomas WR ($6000)
Both guys are under the radar plays this week because of how poor the passing game has been. This week they play the Raiders and will need to score points. The Raider defense has been poor, so the Broncos should be able to throw on them. A stack with one of those two along with Siemian is a nice play this week.
