Who should I start in Fantasy Football? NFL week 2 roster recommendations by position
As we gear up for Week 2 of the 2024 fantasy Football season, it’s time to scout for potential Game-changers to bolster your roster. Here are this week’s top five waiver wire pickups worth considering.
Brandin Cooks (WR - Dallas Cowboys)
In Week 1, Brandin Cooks played 79% of the snaps, the highest among Dallas skill position players.
With tight end Jake Ferguson potentially missing time or being limited in the coming weeks, Cooks is poised to become the Cowboys’ No. 2 pass-catching option. His veteran presence and consistent role make him a valuable asset moving forward.
Isaiah Likely (TE - Baltimore Ravens)
In all likelihood, the 2024 season kicked off positively for Likely, as he was targeted 12 times in Week 1. It may be a challenge for him to maintain that level of involvement consistently throughout the season. Still, considering his athleticism, he is expected to demonstrate his ability to make big plays, especially in the absence or limited availability of Mark Andrews.
Isaiah Likely presents an enticing prospect with substantial upside at the tight-end position.
Justin Fields (QB - Pittsburgh Steelers)
Considering Russell Wilson is still sidelined, Justin Fields remains an appealing choice for streaming at the quarterback position. Due to his adeptness at rushing, he holds the potential to be a borderline QB1 on a weekly basis, making him an enticing option for fantasy managers seeking a dual-threat quarterback with significant upside.
Tank Bigsby (RB - Jacksonville Jaguars)
Tank Bigsby made a statement in Week 1, matching Travis Etienne’s 12 rushing attempts and outperforming him with 73 yards compared to Etienne’s 44.
Bigsby’s impressive performance could elevate his status into high-end handcuff territory, making him a valuable stash for managers seeking running back depth.
Demarcus Robinson (WR - Los Angeles Rams)
With Puka Nacua officially placed on injured reserve (IR) and set to miss at least four weeks, Demarcus Robinson becomes a viable waiver wire target.
Robinson was targeted seven times in the season opener, and with the Rams’ wide receiver depth thinning, he could see an expanded role in the offense.
He recorded an eight-game streak with a reception with the Chiefs in 2017 (Weeks 5-13) and two streaks of 15 consecutive regular-season games with a catch from 2018-19.
