2011 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings – NFL Week 9

Here’s the LestersLegends’ Week 9 2011 fantasy football wide receiver rankings.

1. Greg Jennings @ San Diego: He’s a threat to score every week plus he’s averaging nearly 100 yards per game.
 

2. Mike Wallace vs. Baltimore: 107 yards the last time they squared off. Wallace is averaging 100 yards per game.
 

3. Wes Welker vs. New York Giants: There figures to be a lot of Welker and the TEs to slow the Giants pass rush.
 

4. Hakeem Nicks @ New England: Assuming his hamstring is OK he should be a handful for the Pats’ struggling pass defense.
 

5. Jeremy Maclin vs. Chicago: The Bears are giving up 271.9 passing yards per game.
 

6. Larry Fitzgerald vs. St. Louis: Averaging 86.1 ypg. The Rams have allowed 14 passing TDs.
 

7. Dwayne Bowe vs. Miami: Dolphins are giving up 270.7 passing ypg.
 

8. DeSean Jackson vs. Chicago: The Bears have issues at safety, which the big-play target Jackson should expose.
 

9. Dez Bryant vs. Seattle: He hasn’t done what he’s capable of, but the potential for a huge game looms.
 

10. Marques Coltson vs. Tampa Bay: Averaging 83.8 yards with four touchdowns in his past four games.
 

11. Vincent Jackson vs. Green Bay: Packers are giving up 288.9 passing ypg.
 

12. Roddy White @ Indianapolis: Chance for Roddy to get back on track vs. Colts team that has allowed 15 passing TDs.
 

13. Miles Austin vs. Seattle: I just get the feeling the Cowboys passing game is going to break out in a big way this week.
 

14. Brandon Lloyd @ Arizona: It doesn’t seem to matter who his quarterback is. Lloyd will produce.
 

15. Andre Johnson vs. Cleveland: Is this the week AJ returns?
 

16. Mario Manningham @ New England: All three Giants WRs should be solid plays against New England’s porous secondary.
 

17. A.J. Green @ Tennessee: The Bengals offense is not potent, but Green seems to get his. He’s averaging 80.5 yards with three TDs in his past four games.
 

18. Anquan Boldin @ Pittsburgh: Averaging 105.7 yards since Baltimore’s bye.
 

19. Santonio Holmes @ Buffalo: The Bills are giving up 265.9 passing ypg.
 

20. Stevie Johnson vs. New York Jets: Not so comfy visit to Revis Island.
 

21. Pierre Garcon vs. Atlanta: Garcon continues to be Painter’s top WR target. Falcons giving up 265.6 passing ypg.
 

22. Jordy Nelson @ San Diego: Always a threat because of his quickness, but the Packers do spread it around so he’s a little risky.

23. Brandon Marshall @ Kansas City: Averaging 76.9 yards per game.
 

24. Antonio Brown vs. Baltimore: Ravens are tough against the pass, but the Steelers are averaging 287.8 passing ypg.
 

25. Lance Moore vs. Tampa Bay: Anyone not Colston or Jimmy Graham are risky for the Saints, but Moore should get you at least 50 yards with a chance to score.
 

26. Deion Branch vs. New York Giants: Averaging 59.7 yards with two TDs in his past three games.
 

27. Victor Cruz @ New England: All three Giants WRs should be solid plays against New England’s porous secondary
 

28. Reggie Wayne vs. Atlanta: Frustrating season continues. Getting some looks but only has one TD this year.
 

29. Sidney Rice @ Dallas: Decent WR3 during bye week now that T-Jack is back.
 

30. Julio Jones @ Indianapolis: Colts are giving up 258.9 ypg. If he’s healthy he should be a solid WR3.
 

31. Darrius Heyward-Bey vs. Denver: Averaging 96.3 yards in his past four games but has to deal with questionable QB play and Champ Bailey.
 

32. Michael Crabtree @ Washington: Forever linked with DHB, he’s starting to improve as well.
 

33. Jabar Gaffney vs. San Francisco: No. 1 WR option though given Washington’s play of late it doesn’t mean much.
 

34. Mike Williams (TB) @ New Orleans: Will the offense be more potent coming out of the bye?
 

35. Nate Washington vs. Cincinnati: Bengals have only allowed six passing touchdowns.
 

36. James Jones @ San Diego: Risky option, but big play potential is there.
 

37. Eric Decker @ Oakland: Tebow makes him a risky play, but they’ll likely be playing from behind. Decker makes plays.

38.  Jonathan Baldwin vs. Miami:  Made a splash on MNF and could emerge as the complement to Bowe that many expected.

39. Torry Smith @ Pittsburgh: Averaging 57.7 yards the past three weeks with potential for a deep ball.

40. Steve Breaston vs. Miami: Kansas City’s offense has been improving of late. Averaging 60.4 yards in his past five games.
