🚨 ATTENTION 🚨

New format! Let me know what you all think. Instead of pure sleepers – and to add a lot of context as to why I might rank players a certain way – I’m sharing weekly matchup breakdowns… sort of. I’ll give you some tidbits that I find interesting and that might help you with difficult starting/seating decisions.

WEEK 2 FANTASY FOOTBALL PREVIEW

Vikings at Eagles

Kenneth Gainwell dominated touches (18, 81.8%) but had a rib problem in a short week.

Alexander Mattison had 70% of the ball touches in Week 1, which suggests a leading role.

Despite a big Week 1, Jordan Addison played just 55.6% of the snaps and ran 66.0% of the routes – although he was also the only Vikings player with two targets in the end zone.

The Eagles are vulnerable to slot receivers and tight ends doing a lot of damage this year.

Packers at Falcons

Jordan Love had the sixth-highest aDOT (10.4) with the ninth-highest Deep Throw% (14.8).
