Week 2 Waiver Wire Rankings

Waiver Wire Rankings powered by FantasyProsECR (TM) – Expert Consensus Rankings

Jarvis Landry (WR – NO)
Landry did Landry things in Week 1, as he posted a solid (actually very nice) stat line with little fanfare. Landry commanded a 26.4% target share with a 97.0% route participation clip. With Michael Thomas and Chris Olave taking the brunt of good cornerback play over the next three weeks, Landry is poised as a dark horse to lead the team in targets by the time we get to Week 5.

Jaylen Warren (PIT)
Early reports fear that Najee Harris is dealing with a high-ankle sprain that will sideline him for numerous weeks. It could also hamper the lead back’s performance upon his return and has a very high aggravation rate. Warren absolutely earned the RB2 spot in Steelers camp this summer and will be called upon to fill in. There weren’t many more glaring handcuff RBs to roster this season. If for some reason you rostered Harris without Warren, you might need to spend a decent amount of FAAB to save face at the position going forward.

Jahan Dotson (WSH)
Dotson is a talented rookie who will grab headlines for his two-touchdown performance, but I’m more interested in his route volume than chasing touchdowns. Dotson ran a route on 97.5% of Washington’s passing plays in Week 1. The problem is that he only drew a 12.1% target share. As Carson Wentz‘s fourth option in the passing game, there will be peaks and valleys throughout the season despite Dotson’s talent.
