After Week 1 of fantasy football, the main takeaway is clear: Stay calm.

This is easier said than done. With many players injured last week and uncertainty surrounding the season’s direction, fantasy managers face challenging decisions in Week 2. That’s where we step in.

These rankings are formulated based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring method commonly used in both seasonal and daily fantasy football contests. Players earn one point for each 10 rushing and receiving yards, and one point per every 20 passing yards. Touchdowns score six points, passing TDs earn four points, and each reception is worth one point.
