Robert Woods' usage after Week 1 was concerning. He only ran a route on 68% of Matthew Stafford's dropbacks, seeing just four targets from the Rams' new quarterback. That was fewer targets than he had seen in any one game last season. He still caught a touchdown, which salvaged his week, but the usage was very concerning. Week 2, however, was a different story. Woods ran more routes (27 vs. 18) and played on 98% of the snaps. He saw nine targets, good for a 31% target share. Granted, Kupp was the one with the huge stat line, going 9-163-1 on 11 targets, but the concerns for Woods after Week 1 were eased by his workload in Week 2.
Through two weeks, it's clear Kupp might be Stafford's go-to guy, but Woods should also produce. Kupp was being drafted around WR20 this season, while Woods was viewed as a top-15 guy. It's now looking more like Kupp is a top-10 guy, while Woods is more like a top-20 guy moving forward. Both should be able to produce in what looks to be a narrow target funnel in the Rams' passing attack. Fantasy manager should continue starting Woods, as it's too early to panic or consider benching this caliber of player.
