Play 'EM Bench 'EM WRs For Week 2

Play ‘EM


Calvin Ridley

Atlanta Falcons @

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

On Sunday Ridley had a poor game but he should have a better showing this week. The Falcons should be behind in the game and have to throw the ball a lot which means plenty of opportunities for Ridley to make plays. The Buccaneers have given up an average of 303 receiving yards per game to opposing WRs this season. They have given up a top 10 WR finish in 1 of the 1 games that they have played this season. The Buccaneers have given up an average of 75.30 points per game to opposing WRs this season. They are the 32nd ranked defense at defending the WR position.


Ja’Marr Chase

Cincinnati Bengals @

Chicago Bears

On Sunday Ja’Marr Chase and Joe Burrow showed that their connection from LSU is still strong and may continue in the NFL. Last week the Bears secondary really struggled as on one play Rams WR Cooper Kupp ran down the field and was wide open for a touchdown. In the Bears last 9 games they have allowed 16 touchdowns and nearly 40 fantasy points per game to opposing WRs. The Bears have given up an average of 236 receiving yards per game to opposing WRs this season. They have given up a top 10 WR finish in 1 of the 1 games that they have played this season. The Bears have given up an average of 56.30 points per game to opposing WRs this season. They are the 28th ranked defense at defending the WR position.

Bench ‘EM


Brandin Aiyuk

San Francisco 49ers @ Philadelphia Eagles

Versus the Lions Brandin Aiyuk showed that his hamstring injury must be bothering him more than expected and it is hampering his ability to play. Until he shows that he is 100% healthy I would recommend leaving him on the bench. The Eagles have given up an average of 64 receiving yards per game to opposing WRs this season. They have given up a top 10 WR finish in 0 of the 1 games that they have played this season. The Eagles have given up an average of 18.80 points per game to opposing WRs this season. They are the 2nd ranked defense at defending the WR position.


Robby Anderson

Carolina Panthers vs

New Orleans Saints

Last week the Saints held arguably one of if not the best receiver in Davante Adams to a poor performance. That does not sound good for Robby Anderson who is a good receiver but not to the caliber of Davante Adams. The Saints defense has allowed just 6 touchdowns to WRs in their last 10 games. The Saints have given up an average of 154 receiving yards per game to opposing WRs this season. They have given up a top 10 WR finish in 0 of the 1 games that they have played this season. The Saints have given up an average of 29.50 points per game to opposing WRs this season. They are the 5th ranked defense at defending the WR position.
