Week 6: Survivor Pool Contests | NFL Fantasy Football Rankings

Last week was a great time to have players like Michael Turner or Tony Romo in your lineup. Both players had big days and help fantasy football survivor players have success. This week we have a few big fantasy football matchups as the Cardinals taken on the Seahawks.

Another interesting game will be between the Texans and the AFC North leading Bengals. These games should be nice back and forth scoring games and should help you in your fantasy survivor league.

Below we have our survivor pool rankings split into three sections, and they are studs, mid range and poor plays.

We hope these survivor pool rankings help you choose those stud players you need this week for a successful start to the 2009 survivor fantasy season.
