Week 1 had a lot of landmines, and our optimal lineups didn't avoid Le'Veon Bell or David Johnson. However it didn't matter too much, given Los Angeles and Pittsburgh were the defenses, and Charles Clay was in all three of the lineups from the Week 1 article. Jordy Nelson and DeAndre Hopkins also caught touchdown passes, so you were likely to survive despite the running back situations. Todd Gurley was a chalky play, but he made for the cash game RB2, and stacking RB2. Overall it was a decent week on FanDuel, but things could have been better with better RB performances. Onto Week 2. If you are a non-premium member, GPP lineup and Optimal Stack will be hidden.

If you are coming over from DraftKings, or heading to DraftKings it is a similar structure. It is way easier to fit in Julio Jones on FanDuel, and the optimizer knows it. Pairing him with Matt Ryan is a high floor move against this secondary, that won't have the type of week they did last week. This is another potential shootout, and grabbing three players from this game is certainly a great way to start off a lineup. Ty Montgomery is the other name, who missed a price bump on both sites. Atlanta struggles against pass-catching backs, and Montgomery should see 20+ touches yet again.

If you are worried about being contrarian enough to make a difference, Tampa Bay and Greg Olsen are those plays that will come in lower owned this week. The Panthers passing game has a lot of criticism in the fantasy world, due to the volume, and health of Cam Newton. Olsen is a sneaky play this week, especially if everyone tries jam in Rob Gronkowski.

Larry Fitzgerald and Ted Ginn are two wideouts that will be in my lineups this week, but more so on the Fitz side. He should lead the team in targets, and possibly be top five in the league yet again. It is a good spot against the Colts, who were burned out of the slot by Cooper Kupp last week.
