Fantasy football starters and benchwarmers for Week 2
San Diego’s secondary gives up plenty of TD passes, so Dalton should have a fine outing in his home opener.
The rookie’s stellar debut last weekend wasn’t as shocking as starter Joique Bell’s poor performance.
What’s most significant is that Yeldon received the majority of the carries against the Panthers’ stingy defense, so look for a similar workload and better results against Miami’s more-generous run defenders.
[...] Williams is capable of inflicting major damage on a Philly secondary that surrenders passing yards and TDs in big chunks.
The third-year wideout should pick up more than his fair share of Bryant’s targets, and at least one long scoring play seems inevitable.
Despite a hefty 41 pass attempts against the Rams, Wilson had a mediocre fantasy performance in the opener — highlighted by six sacks.
Blue was expected to be the bell cow until Arian Foster (groin) returned; but instead, Houston rolled out a full-fledged running back by committee approach in the opener.
Williams looked surprisingly spry in the season kickoff, though he failed to reach the end zone.
With just one 11-yard reception on three targets, the prized offseason acquisition was virtually invisible in the opener.
Despite the favorable matchup, Smith should be nowhere near your starting lineup until he and his quarterback recognize each other.
Chris Johnson, RB, Cardinals at Bears: I have serious reservations about Johnson’s season-long prospects behind Arizona’s line — especially since Andre Ellington (knee) isn’t expected to be out too long.
[...] Johnson will be the workhorse against the vulnerable Chicago run defense, and Palmer will put the former fantasy superstar in good position to rack up a rushing score or two.
