Week 9 Fantasy Busts: Antone Smith, Travis Benjamin among risky 'starts'

The tough start 'em, sit 'em decisions start early in Week 9 with the Buccaneers backfield of Peyton Barber and Antone Smith causing problems for fantasy owners on Thursday night. Both were worthwhile waiver wire pickups, and both could be sleepers or busts this week. As much as we like to pretend we know more than the average fantasy owner, in situations like this, we're guessing right along with you. Don't say we didn't warn you.

Fortunately, we do have a better feeling when it comes to other players. Unfortunately, those feelings are negative, be it because of injury, bad matchup, or uncertain playing time.
