Fantasy Football 2017: Start Em, Sit Em for Week 9
START ‘EM
. Wide Receiver. Cowboys. Dez Bryant. 3. player. 123
The Chiefs/Cowboys game has tons of start-worthy players, but none is perhaps more start-worthy than Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant. The Chiefs defense isn’t what it used to be and most offenses facing them have put their best wide receiver on the side Marcus Peters isn’t covering.
Bryant has yet to go for over 100 yards yet this season, but this game could set him up nicely for a big game. The Chiefs allowed Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper to put up over 200 yards and before that Antonio Brown torched them.
If Ezekiel Elliott does not play this weekend, that will be an even better reason to start Bryant, as Dak Prescott will be looking to link up with his top weapon frequently. The Chiefs defense fared better in the secondary last week, but Trevor Siemian doesn’t hold a candle to what Prescott can do when given open receivers down the field.
Bryant will be an easy WR1 option for this weekend’s slate of games.
