Fantasy Football Projections Week 9: Wide Receivers

Who is looking good at wide receiver for Week 9? We project five good ones.

Hakeem Nicks (@ Sea) - We're going with Nicks at the top this week. Why not? He's been red-hot with four touchdowns in the past three weeks, and has hit triple-digits in yards three of the last four weeks. The Seattle pass defense is among the worst at giving up passing yards, and Nicks should also find the endzone.
Projection: 114 yds, 2 TD

Roddy White (vs Tam) - White is having a stellar year, and this week he gets a Tampa defense that gives up touchdowns through the air in bunches. Last week, the Bucs had a shootout with the Cardinals, expect the same this week. White will get plenty of opportunities.
Projection: 102 yds, 2 TD

Greg Jennings (vs Dal) - With Donald Driver likely out by his own admission, Jennings should see the majority of targets on Sunday night, and then some, The Cowboys secondary has been getting scorched recently, so we like Jennings' chances.
Projection: 126 yds, 1 TD

Reggie Wayne (@ Phi) - When all else fails, go with the old reliable. Wayne gets a Philly defense that will give up touchdowns. We expect one.
Projection: 114 yds, 1 TD

Dwayne Bowe (@ Oak) - Bowe only had three catches last week for 16 yards, but he still managed to find the endzone for the third consecutive week (5 TDs in that span). Oakland doesn't give up a lot of yards, but they do give up touchdowns.
Projection: 97 yds, 1 TD
