Fantasy Football: 10 wide receiver sleepers to start in Week 2
Week 2 of the NFL season is here and with it comes wide receiver sleepers that could help you in this week’s fantasy matchups.
Week 1 of football has passed, and with it came fantasy football players who exceeded expectations, or failed to live up to them. These players will vary weekly, and a key in winning your matchups is hitting the right one each week.
We know the big names such as Davante Adams, Tyreek Hill, and Stefon Diggs are in your lineup already, but let’s find those lesser-thought-about receivers that could win you this week’s matchup.
10 wide receiver sleepers to start in Week 2
10. Jaylen Waddle, Miami Dolphins
Jaylen Waddle had an impressive regular season debut, catching 4-of-6 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown. He looked every part of the first round wide receiver that the Dolphins drafted.
He will look to build on that this week against the Bills who had a tough time covering the Steelers’ wideouts, and the speedy Waddle should give their secondary fits.
With Will Fuller reportedly out due to a personal issue, Waddle should lead the Miami receivers this week.
9. Cole Beasley, Buffalo Bills
On the other side of the Miami-Buffalo matchup is Cole Beasley, who reprised his role as Josh Allen’s security blanket in Week 1, going for eight catches and 60 yards on 13 targets.
This should be a competitive game, which means Allen will be throwing throughout. Allen throwing the ball means Beasley being involved often.
Start Beasley in PPR leagues and fire him up in your DFS lineups as a bargain option.
