Top NFL DFS Picks for Week 2

Christian McCaffrey: Christian McCaffrey saw a week of awesome production in Week 1, but more appealing was his usage. McCaffrey saw 22 carries as well as 5 targets, which is quite impressive considering the game got out of hand fairly quickly. Expect him to continue to lead the field in RB fantasy production in Week 2.

Calvin Ridley: Ridley picked up right where he left off a couple of years ago, as he had a monster Week 1 showing, racking up 8 catches for 101 yards and a touchdown. Now he finds himself in a matchup against the Chiefs in a game with the highest implied total on the slate.

Ja’Marr Chase: Chase and the rest of the Bengals were massive disappointments in their rainy game against the Browns. The Bengals should bounce back against the Ravens, and despite the lackluster season debut, Chase showed massive upside, as he accounted for nearly 30% of the team’s targets.
