Week 1 Fantasy Analysis

The Raiders and Saints will shootout as both teams ranked in the bottom third in passing yards allowed per game. The Browns first round pick Corey Coleman could start off his rookie campaign with a bang as the Eagles allowed the 2 nd most fantasy points per game to wide receivers last season. Chip Kelly and the new look 49ers offense should put up tons of yards against a Rams defense that allowed over 367 a game last season. New England draws a tough opener here in the desert against Arizona. They are also without Tom Brady, so the secondary pieces in New England might not be a good option this week. Jets-Bengals also offers up another tough draw as far as offenses go. Both teams featured a very solid defensive unit, and it might result in slim pickings. Kansas City's offense should get off on the right track against a very subpar defense from last season. Although they have invested in that side of the ball, Kansas City should be able to hang a few touchdowns on the board.
