2. Chris Godwin, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (vs. PIT)

Chris Godwin has averaged 6.3 targets in the three games he’s played this season. Locked in as one of Tom Brady’s top targets, he can be counted on for volume week to week and can spike in any given game — especially a good matchup. This week’s matchup is favorable for Godwin and the other Tampa Bay weapons.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have given up the second-most passing yards in the NFL through five weeks, and have allowed the most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. Everything is shaping up for a big day for Godwin, and the high-volume receiver should be in your lineups this week as well as an option for your daily fantasy lineups.
