Analysts reveal their most confident fantasy football takes for Week 2 to give you confidence in your upcoming lineup decisions. For more sit-start advice, visit our rankings hub.
Cook is coming off a week of power rallies in which he dominated the Bills' backfield touches. He played 59% of the offensive snaps and handled the ball 16 times. Meanwhile, Damien Harris and Latavius Murray had just six touches. Cook may not have had a fantasy impact in the opener, but he saw everything we wanted to see in terms of workload. Buffalo has no challengers.
This week is a good matchup for the Bills, and Cook will face a Vegas defense that allowed the most receiving yards to running backs last season and the seventh most fantasy points allowed. He's a must-start; enjoy 20 PPR points. -Andy Behrens
We are frustrated with the state of Atlanta's passing game, but let's focus on the good stuff: the running game. Most NFL teams can support two backs for fantasy purposes, and while Bijan Robinson is the most talented player in the Falcons' backfield, Allgeier will be fantasy playable on a weekly basis. Allgeier will also have more carries, touches, and goal-line plays than Robinson in this game, and the team will probably rely on Allgeier for short touchdowns and not burden Robinson. Allgeier was Yahoo ADP 126 over the summer. landed, but he intends to crush it in 2023. - 20] Scott Pianowski
White saw elite usage in Week 1, playing 79% of his snaps as a 3-down back and earning 19 touches. running with a better snap rate than this in 2022. There are only two running backs with a higher snap rate in 2022.
White was inefficient from the start of the season, averaging just 2.6 yards per touch. This is a bit concerning, as White struggled with efficiency as a rookie. However, as the season progressed, his efficiency improved. In his last eight games, his yards per touch increased by 34%. If White can play with average efficiency, he will be dominant. That's how big his role is.

This combination usually leads to elite fantasy production. | you can do it so that you can really come across that you can actually forget about those seemingly exactly how {} anyone quickly just ignores us promises. In a similar spot, starting RBs with this type of usage are averaging over 14 fantasy points. - 30] Sal Vetri
Nacua burst onto the scene last week and finished among the air yardage leaders with an NFL-high 15 targets. This is the third highest number of targets in a rookie's first game in NFL history. He was also fifth infirst-read target percentage and second inprojected fantasy pointsbehind Tyreek Hill. Nakua nearly misseda long touchdown catchand tackle at the 1-yard line.
Nacqua has the second-most yards in his route-running career in the last five draft classesand somehow managed to last until the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft. Coach Sean McVay will likely use him in a Cooper Kupp-like role. Matthew Staffordfinally got healthy in Week 1 and looked great. I rank Nacua as a top 20 WR this week because the Rams yielded the fewest fantasy points to RBs but get the 49ers defense that funneled the 6th most passes to WRs last season. - 9] Dalton Del Don
Pierce absolutely did not get off to the start that fantasy managers expected when they started moving him up draft boards from his great preseason usage. He couldn't. However, this was always going to be a bad spot. As we wrote in our Week 1 Binge/Stream/Skip preview, for a team with a rookie quarterback, a road game against a good defense by a large margin is a rough recipe for the run game. This game was not a normal game script, so I am not going to give him much credit for playing time.
Still, Pierce looked good in the zone scheme with a 50% run success rate (according to Fantasy Points Data) and 2.91 yards after contact per rush. He should find better lanes against the Colts. Indy lost players at every level of the defense in the offseason, and it showed in Week 1. Not only did they get ripped apart by Calvin Lildy in the secondary, but they also gave up a big run or two to Travis Etienne. The fact that C.J. Stroud looked like he could hold his own in a brutal spot in Week 1 has increased my long-term confidence in Pierce. I think he is a top 10 back this week. - 19] Matt Harmon
