Tyler Lockett Is A Lock For Week 2
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is rapidly developing into one of the best fantasy receivers in the NFL. In Week 1, he caught all eight of his targets to continue his excellent chemistry with quarterback Russell Wilson. In Week 2, the matchup is much more difficult against the New England Patriots, but you still... Read More
Chris Carson Should Be Started In Week 2
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson was the RB7 in Week 1 thanks to a pair of receiving touchdowns. In Week 2, it's unlikely that he'll be able to perform to that level again, but you almost have to have him in your lineups. The Seahawks have quickly developed one of the best offenses in...

Russell Wilson Has To Be Started In Week 2
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson was nearly perfect in Week 1. In Week 2, his matchup is much more difficult against the New England Patriots, but you have to keep him in your lineups. For his career in two matchups against New England, Wilson has averaged just under 30 fantasy points per game. Wilson's receiving... Read More
Cam Akers A Borderline Fantasy Starter This Week
Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers saw a good amount of work in Week 1, but he was extremely inefficient. In Week 2, you can expect much of the same. The Rams offensive line could be outmatched against this Philadelphia Eagles defensive line. Akers averaged less than three yards per carry on 14 totes... Read More
Tyler Higbee Should Bounce Back In Week 2
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee was unable to live up to the hype in Week 1, but he can bounce back in Week 2. The Philadelphia Eagles have a severe lack of talent at the linebacker position, and they downgraded at safety this offseason. Higbee only saw two more targets than teammate Gerald... Read More
Robert Woods Is A Safe Play For Week 2
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods showed off some big-play ability in Week 1, and he is a safe option again for Week 2. The Philadelphia Eagles were one of the worst teams against wide receivers last season, and that might continue this year despite the addition of cornerback Darius Slay. Woods gets a... Read More
Cooper Kupp Should Bounce Back In Week 2
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp caught four of his five targets in Week 1, but he wasn't able to break any for a big gain. In Week 2, his matchup gets a lot easier against a Philadelphia Eagles team that was ranked in the bottom five against wide receivers last season. Kupp has... Read More
Malcolm Brown Has Tough Matchup For Week 2
Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown finished as the No. 5 running back in Week 1, but it's unlikely he'll be able to replicate that in Week 2. The Philadelphia Eagles were ranked fifth against the running back position last season because they penetrate the backfield often. Combine that with their spotty secondary, and... Read More
Jared Goff Is A Sneaky Play In Week 2
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff saw some touchdowns vultured from him in Week 1. If he had gotten them, his week would have looked a lot better. In Week 2, his matchup looks a bit better. The Philadelphia Eagles are built to stop the run, but they have a number of holes in their... Read More

Tyler Higbee Is Quiet In Week 1

Cooper Kupp Is Held In Check For Week 1
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp was unable to live up to the hype in Week 1 due to the well-coached Dallas Cowboys Defense. He caught four of his five targets for 40 yards. Kupp has never been known as a big-play guy, but it was still unfortunate to see him fail to break... Read More
Cam Akers Is Stifled In Week 1
Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers was just a few carries behind teammate Malcolm Brown, but he was far less efficient. He had 14 totes for 39 yards to go with one catch for four yards. That's an average of just 2.87 yards per touch. Even behind an offensive line like the Rams, that's... Read More
Robert Woods Puts Up Some Big Plays In Week 1
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods was explosive in the team's Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He caught six of his eight targets for 105 yards, and he showed that his consistency from the last two seasons will be remaining. He hardly ever gives you the highest ceiling possible, but he gives... Read More
Malcolm Brown Has A Big Week 1
Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown was the lead back in Week 1 against the Cowboys, and he held a firm grasp on that role. He had 18 carries for 79 yards and two touchdowns to go with three receptions for 31 yards. There was some mystery about who would be the lead running... Read More

Carlos Hyde Finds The End Zone In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks running back Carlos Hyde didn't see a ton of volume with just seven carries for 23 yards, but he did manage to get into the end zone on a one-yard run. With the other injuries in the running back room, it's likely that Hyde will get some work on an every-week basis. However,... Read More
Greg Olsen Snags A Touchdown In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks tight end Greg Olsen did not have the greatest matchup in Week 1, but he managed to finish with some fantasy value. He caught all four of his targets for 24 yards and a touchdown. In PPR, that would give him a 12 point day, and you'll take that all day long considering... Read More
Tyler Lockett Is Efficient In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett picked up right where he left off last year in Week 1 against the Atlanta Falcons. He caught all eight of his targets for 92 yards.

D.K. Metcalf Goes Long In Week 1

Phillip Dorsett II Questionable For Week 1
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Phillip Dorsett II (foot) has been dealing with a nagging injury, and it appears that he is likely to miss Week 1.

Running Back Committees Worth Investing In
Running back committees are the worst. We can all agree on that, right? You go into the season drafting a guy that you’re expecting to get 300+ touches in a year, and it becomes evident early on that he will in fact be splitting touches with that fourth-round rookie. Rather than getting 25 touches in... Read More
Seahawks Defense Should Be Benched In Week 1
The Seattle Seahawks Defense was one of the best the NFL had ever seen in the beginning of the last decade, but they've moved towards being an offensive-minded team over the last several years. While they've added some good pieces, especially safety Jamal Adams, this group still has some key areas to improve upon, such... Read More
Rams Defense Should Be Avoided In Week 1
The Los Angeles Rams Defense was one of the better groups for fantasy just a couple of years ago. However, with the mass exodus of talent, they're a shell of that group and they can't be trusted on a consistent basis. With stars like Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey, they have some bright spots, but... Read More
Greg Olsen Should Be Faded In Week 1
Seattle Seahawks tight end Greg Olsen has potential to be a very valuable piece this season. This team has traditionally utilized the tight end position heavily, but that doesn't mean you should rely on him right away.
