Fantasy owners who swear by PPR scoring had an eventful Week 1 -- a few big-name wide receivers soaked up ample targets en route to huge fantasy outputs.
Fantasy football rankings, 2015: Wide receivers for PPR leagues, Week 2
The SB Nation fantasy staff ranks the top 50 fantasy football wide receivers for PPR leagues in Week 2.
Keenan Allen stood out the most, hauling in a whopping 15 catches for 166 yards on 17 targets, all which currently lead the NFL. Not too far behind were Julian Edelman and Jordan Matthews, who corralled 11 and 10 catches, respectively.
Fantasy owners of all three hope that they can replicate their monster Week 1 performances, and if the SB Nation Fantasy staff's prognostications are of any encouragement, there's a good chance that they will. Despite Edelman's tough matchup with the swarming Buffalo Bills defense, he is squarely in WR2 territory along with Allen, as both ought to be target monsters.
The staff is even higher on Matthews this week, who gets an easier matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. As a result, he is the consensus No. 9 for Week 2, and was ranked as high as No. 5 overall. Let's see how the rest stack up:
