Ranking fantasy winners of Week 9
1. C.J. Stroud, QB, Houston Texans
What a game, and what a comeback! Stroud was a star all day in Week 9, setting rookie records for passing yards (470) and fantasy points in a game (41.4). He's only the 20th rookie in history to pass for at least 450 yards and five touchdowns. Stroud made good use of all of his receivers, threw the deep ball with confidence and continues to be one of the most exciting stories at a position that has taken some severe hits of late. He needs to be regarded as a top-10-capable quarterback regardless of matchup -- and he has a lot of good ones left. -- Cockcroft
