Top 30 Wide Receiver Rankings & Tiers | Week 1 Fantasy Football
we are only hours away from kickoff from the Detroit Lions versus the Kansas City Chiefs but before we get into that there's so much news that has bro Cooper cup potentially going on IR Jerry Judy is he playing Terry mccoying is he playing now Christian Watson in the list goes on so I'm bringing you my top 30 wide receivers that you should be starting going into week one to help you set your lineups because there are so many questions okay so let's get straight into it let's not waste any more time my tier one I think is pretty obvious pretty simple who my number one wide receiver is for this week that is Justin Jefferson one of the most talented wide receivers in the NFL stepping up going to be hopefully breaking more records coming into this year his team gets better here with Jordan Addison TJ Hawkinson getting a long-term contract extension no doubt in my mind he can easily finish as a wide receiver one coming into this week playing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who to be honest I'm not necessarily sure how this secondary is really going to hold up I mean the Minnesota Vikings were one of the top scoring offices in the NFL this past year I think that can easily continue with Kurt thuggins and Justin Jefferson let's go to my second wide receiver here Tyreek Hill two attacks coming into another year hopefully he doesn't have any more concussions one of the most explosive Playmakers here in Tyree kill versus the Los Angeles charges in La who technically Tyreek Hill has a lot of history with when he was with the Kansas City chief so he knows a little bit about these Los Angeles charges I think he can easily take advantage of this another guy I can easily see finishing as a wide receiver one coming into week one my second wide receiver is Jamar excuse me is Jamar Chase my last wide receiver in my tier one I'm already excited losing breath it's already we're only in tier one of this video Jamar Chase playing the Cleveland Browns at Cleveland look with Joe Bro back being under Center there's no doubt he is going to be the favorite Target for Joe burrow right I mean obviously last year he dealt with some injury he was averaging over 15 16 fantasy points per game while he was healthy and I can easily see him that continuing and if he does play a Full Slate of games this year there's no doubt in my mind Jamar Chase can finish as a top three wide receiver let's get to my tier two a Monroe same brown our first Thursday night player as you're watching this once again only hours away you have to start a Monroe right I mean he is the number one Target on this offense for Jared Goff jamo jamo Jameis Winston is going to be missing significant amount of time with that suspension for six weeks now with Chris Jones gonna miss some time Travis Kelsey this offense has a lot of opportunity to score and take the lead you know early and fast fast and early right of Monroe say brown somebody who finished as a top eight wide receiver this past year easily continue you can see that continuing a Monroe this past year over 16 fantasy points per game he was averaging I can easily see him getting you know 80 70 plus yards and a touchdown getting that average of maybe six to seven Targets in that game or more going to CD lamb Sunday night football against my beloved New York football Giants to be completely honest with you CD lamp has historically had a phenomenal game with the new against the New York football Giants especially with these rookie corners and Trey Hawkins and Deontay Banks he's probably going to be regarded by uh adoree Jackson and or I don't know whoever else is going to be guarding him but we honestly don't know the game plan but he could be being he could be guarded by one of these rookies who can easily make a mistake and once again historically CD Lam has always done great against the New York Giants this past year finished as a wide receiver five averaging over 17 fantasy points per game let's not think about it too much it's CD land my next wide receiver I think maybe a little bit of surprise for a lot of people Jalen waddle he is my three four five sixth wide receiver on my list here and we've been raving about this match up all you know all offseasons not all off season but all throughout our start sit live streams the the Miami Dolphins versus the um the Los Angeles Chargers could be the highest scoring game in week one Justin Herbert on one side with Keenan Allen with Excuse me Mike Williams Austin Eckler then you have Jalen waddle Tyreke Hill where he mostly Devon a chain two attacks this can easily once again be the highest scoring game in week one if you have or don't have a piece of this offense try to get them on your team as soon as possible so that's the end of my tier two going to my tier three AJ Brown no doubt in my mind obviously look I have to nitpick what these tears really wanted to break it down for you have a little bit of a conversation we really want to be getting these high upside plays for these players and that is AJ Brown no doubt about it going having another back-to-back year here with Jalen hurts his second year with him just came off a Super Bowl loss unfortunately and he wants to come back and make a strong stance here playing the New England Patriots and New England could be a tough matchup but we all all know that next year Riani and Jalen hurts and agent Brown are going to find a way to get the ball into AJ Brown's hand so start AJ brown with some confidence coming into this week going to Sun excuse me Monday night our first wide receiver on Monday night that is Stefan Diggs look you have to respect the Jets defense you have to understand what Stefon Diggs has done in the past this past year Stefan Diggs wide receiver for over 150 targets uh from Josh Allen averaging 18 over 18 fantasy points per game remember last year a lot of people I remember correct because a lot of people were saying I don't know man Stefan Diggs versus Jalen Ramsey in this Rams secondary is pretty good I'm not necessarily sure Stefan Diggs we should be starting him we should he could probably be a Sit candidate I don't care who he's playing against we all know that the Buffalo Bills are going to come out strong I'm I can probably put my money on it that the first play for the Buffaloes offense is going to be a past two Stefan Diggs to get these two going I know the Jets defense is phenomenal in the secondary or sauce Garner DJ Reed etc etc but you have to start Stefan Diggs and respect it going to the other side of the ball there with Stefan Diggs you have to go Garrett Wilson I mean Aaron Rodgers coming into his first season with the Jets you saw what he did in preseason even though it was only preseason was talking to him I think he got three four to Target three to four targets to Garrett Wilson in that span and not drive and a touchdown I mean we've heard all the reports all off season Aaron Rodgers saying number 17 reminds me of an old 17 that he used to play with Garrett Wilson is going to have a phenomenal year this year a must start coming into week one look obviously all these tier three guys are guys that you're gonna start with no question unless you're in an eight-man League you probably have to nitpick a little bit but look don't question start your stars we have a saying here kiss keep it simple stupid so that's exactly what I would be doing here starting all these guys going into my tier four Calvin really is my next wide receiver here and I know you guys are saying well he's ahead of somebody else who we will definitely talk about he might he may be my next wide receiver here but kind of really coming into this offense hasn't played in over two years but what we've seen what we heard out of training camp and the chemistry that we saw a little glimpse of preseason with Trevor Lawrence is going to be phenomenal Colin really has had the history of being the number one or one B obviously behind Julio Jones now coming here with Trevor Lawrence being the number one finally that's going he's going to eat in this offense playing against the Indianapolis Colts who was a division of rival at Indianapolis you don't have to worry about whether you have to worry about anything this is exactly how this Jaguars team once again running out of breath is I'm so excited it's going to start getting calm and Ridley starting count really without a question over someone like once again nitpicking a Devonte Adams and I know a lot of people are saying how's Devonte Adams not a top five wide receiver that you're starting coming into week one it's a quarterback play I'm I have him here out of respect to be completely honest he's one of my favorite wide receivers but who is somebody that's not my favorite quarterback is Jimmy G I'm not necessarily sure how he's going to perform but I do know if we are projecting the right way and how everyone is seeing and visioning this Devonte Adams should get pepper were targets no matter what that looks like Jimmy G playing in the Devonte Adams playing against the Denver Broncos and look that secondary is good obviously struggled last year because of the team the offense the head coach but I think everyone comes back healthy and Patrick sir 10 is going to be all over Devonte Adams this is a division rival a divisional matchup and I think they're going to have to lock it out especially with Sean Payton trying to make a stance a statement in week one of his NFL I guess debut with the Denver Broncos all right now we go to Devonta Smith really similar to AJ Brown it's not waste too much time on this somebody that I like to start as my wide receiver too here I feel really confident you know Jalen hurts is going to be spreading the ball around too Devonta Smith AJ Brown I mean some people think the uh DeAndre Swift and Dallas scotter but Devonta Smith surprise a surprise pickup from last year no one really expected him I feel like outside of myself I mean Zach and I got a lot of bunch of arguments about Devonta Smith saying that I see his production really you know come taking the next step until last year this past year finished as a wide receiver nine averaging over 15 fancy points per game I feel like really confident starting Devonta Smith coming into week one all right my last wide receiver in this tier and that is Chris olave Chris olave coming in with the new quarterback which all the reports weird reports tweets you know all the news and articles I've been reading is that take some hills the number one uh the first quarterback on the depth chart I find that hard to believe to be completely honest with you I do believe Derek Carr is going to be starting as a number one quarterback and Chris salave okay it's Gonna Eat Right Michael Thomas could potentially be back which could help Chris salave and if he doesn't it still helps Crystal Ave okay Derek Carr has a history of producing fancy relevant wide receivers like a Devonte animals like a hunter Renfro like a Darren Waller quote unquote tied in slash wide receiver liking Amari Cooper in the past I feel really confident starting Chris lave who had a phenomenal rookie season outside of that injury I can easily see him being a top 12 top 15 wide receiver finish coming into week one all right guys before I get into my fifth tier

questions prioritize for you once again vlogfantasy.com the best place to support what we're doing here going into tier five this is where I get the piece on the other side of the bowl with that top wide receivers I've been trying to say Dolphins versus Chargers Keenan Allen I really can't put Keenan Allen into my tier four I can but you know once again to give this video some depth and to really break it down for you guys Keenan Allen somebody who was from weeks 10 onwards when he did come back he was the top five wide receiver I understand the injuries are concerned but you have to start them as if he's not injured and you have to believe in Justin Herbert and the chemistry they have another team I believe is going to see this the offense start off first play Justin Herbert Keenan Allen maybe a first down maybe a couple yards one point in your pocket for the first Sunday of the game with Keenan Allen next wide receiver in my tier five Amari Cooper DeSean Watson I truly believe who has produced a top five wide receiver and DeAndre Hopkins top 15 and will Fuller top 12 and Brandon Cooks in the past I think it's gonna come back to its form he finally has a full off season a full training camp a full preseason with his wide receivers like an Amari Cooper going playing against the Cincinnati Bengals who do have a good defense I think DeSean Watson knows how to play against good defenses with the bad offense this is one of his best orphans he has been with best offensive line I some would say best running back he's played with best wide receiver core and tight end Court he's played with DeShaun Watson and Martin Cooper have a phenomenal connection going to the Cincinnati Bengals on the other side of the ball T Higgins once again Joe burrow is is healthy T Higgins a top wide receiver coming into this year had a good season last year I mean no one really expected him to not not that they didn't expect him but no one really saw what he was going to be doing this past year excuse me no one really imagined that t Higgins will get injured obviously finished outside the top 20. we were all believing in a top 12 finish but even last year when he did miss some time he was averaging just over just under 15 fancy points per game Joe Bro T Higgins Jamar Chase are all going to eat in this offense my next wide receiver and I think this is where it can get a little bit shaky from this point on I think a lot of people may disagree with my rankings and get a little bit wordy in the comments DJ Moore there's a lot of non non-just and filled Believers out here where people don't want to have any part of him I'm all in on DJ Moore he is my guy coming into this here he is somebody who has produced a consistent thousand yards receiving for the past two to three years in with multiple different quarterbacks no matter who that was now he's going with arguably one of the best quarterbacks he has played with maybe one of the most talented I would say uh there could be Arguments for other quarterbacks obviously but DJ Moore look we have sold the chemistry in preseason only a glimpse but if Justin Fields is really going to be taking the step that we all believe just like the Jalen hurts people believed that don't believe in Justin Herbert or Justin Fields excuse me I see DJ Moore taking a massive step being the AJ Brown um to a Jalen hurts bringing the Stefan Diggs to Josh challenge et cetera et cetera DJ Moore could be in that pool of players for Justin Herbert going to our next player here this is my first biggest tier that is Tyler Lockett playing against the Los Angeles Rams who this Ram secondary is not as good as it used to be they no longer have Jalen Ramsey there's another divisional game Jackson Smith and jig but is in question two play I mean it looks all the reports that we're hearing right now Jackson Smith and jigba is going to be playing in week one but I do believe that's going to be limited but Tyler Lockett coming into week one I think it's gonna pick up right where he left off this past year finishes wide receiver 13 averaging just under 15 fancy points per game here's the lock start for me coming into week one a really good honestly wide receiver two even wide receiver 1B you know let's say you didn't get you drafted running backs heavy quarterback tight end Tower lock is a good start for you to go as your wide receiver one in some formats oh man I'm talking a lot and I'm loving it I'm running out of breath gotta stand up more out of shape clearly Devo Samuel my next wide receiver in this tier Brock Purdy is finally back they signed Nick Bosa they're going playing against Pittsburgh Steelers at at Pittsburgh if I'm not mistaken yes at Pittsburgh Debo Samuel is going to be playing and look you have to really imagine that this orphans is going to kick kick off strong right we all know that the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to give him a fight especially what we sold last year or excuse me not last year but in preseason with Kenny Pickett but if that is the case Debo samur can easily pick up here one give you a reminder this past year Debo Samuel didn't have the best year either he finished as a wide receiver 38 but in that span averaging 13 fancy points per game uh in that whole season but in that span when he was healthy he was averaging over 16 and a half fantasy points in that span before his injury so I feel really confident Debo Samuel Brock Purdy is going to be spreading the ball around to Debo Samuel brand new George Kittle and of course CMC my last wide receiver in this tier is DK Metcalf DK here coming off of a good season finished wide receiver 16 averaging over 13 fantasy points per game yes Jackson Smith and jigba is going to be playing very similar to Tyler Lockett but I don't believe he's going to be taking a lot of opportunities away from tar locket and or DK Metcalf I think both of these guys you should be starting with confidence Geno Smith or DK Metcalf is going to be the touchdown guy Tyler Lockett is going to be the target guy that's why tarlock is currently ahead of DK Metcalf but either or both of these guys are going to eat in this offense going into tier six this is where in my opinion it gets really interesting this is another tier where I believe you guys are going to completely disagree I think you guys are probably already saying I can't believe this guy isn't in your top five tiers excuse me DeAndre Hopkins look with DeAndre Hopkins going to a new offense more of predominantly run heavy offense I did have DeAndre Hopkins higher in my fantasy rankings earlier before when he did originally get traded but as the week gone by the months gone by I kind of had to move DeAndre Hopkins down I still believe in his talent I still believe in what he can do I need to see it first I think there's a lot of you know wide receivers and next coming tiers that you know what I'm projecting a lot but I'm really believing in what they can do coming into week one my next wide receiver in this here Brandon ayuk once again where Debo's at kind of similar to talaka DK Metcalf wherever Debo's at Brenda uke is really close behind this past year finished as a top 15 wide receiver averaging over 13 fancy points per game I think what Brock Purdy you know the way I'm kind of projecting this is that he can easily become the favorite Target out of Fort Brock Purdy right George Kittle's in question to play week one Debo saying was clear gonna be the guy and CMC could it be the guy or is it the guy excuse me but right now you can easily take some opportunity away from everyone from this offense so I do believe Brenda you can give you a good 12 to 14 fantasy points this week if he finds the end zone all right my last player in this tier in tier six Mike Williams once again get another piece of that pie of that Dolphins Miami game can he stay healthy what does that look like I'm not too confident in starting Mike Williams but to be completely honest with you I have him here out of respect this past year had a decent year obviously missed a lot of games but normally if he does stay healthy and plays a full game I won't be surprised if my camera gets you 12 over 15 fancy points and maybe gets that touching maybe gets that bomb contested catch touchdown that we all expect from Mike Evans this is where he gets juicy now I want you guys to hear me out in tier seven this is where I truly see every single one of the players I'm going to bring to you and I think no matter however order you want to put it I see these players going having a fantasy finished week one from 12 to 13 fantasy points all the way up to 20 fantasy points and that is a big gap right so 12 fantasy points I think it's a good safe floor with a high ceiling of 20 plus fantasy points every single one of these players I can see them doing that in my tier seven so my first player in this here is Johan Dotson we saw what he did in preseason with Terry McLaurin there with this whole offense versus the Baltimore Ravens whether it was the first second third defense it doesn't matter the chemistry that we sold with Terry there and Jahan Dotson with Sam Howe I think is pretty phenomenal there so I'm starting Jahan Dodson with confidence coming into week one Deontay Johnson is my next wide receiver in this tier that I feel really confident in yes last year we also he got peppered with targets but didn't get any touchdowns which meant he resulted to being a wireless outside the top 25 wide receivers now with Kenny Pickett under offense getting a better offensive line and you know really taking control of this offense as well I won't be surprised if Deontay Johnson can finally find The End Zone one time this year or maybe even in week one this is a player I think a lot of people been disagreeing on at least Zach and myself have been disagreeing on that is Drake London I had to see it first I believe in the talent we saw a glimpse of it of um of this connection with Desmond Ritter because I believe in Desmond Ritter but I have to see it first with Desmond Ritter and Drake London here playing against the Carolina Panthers you have to imagine JC horn playing against Drake London or shadowing Drake London I'm going once again wait and see approach I think a lot of people will have Drake London I would say in this tier VI but right now at this right moment I feel confident having him in my tier 70 Christian Kirk very similar to Calvin really he's going to be taking a lot of opportunities away from Christian Kirk common really will but I think the targets are still going to be there I don't think the touchdown is going to be there the target's going to be there in the slots the target the touchdowns are going to be taken away I mean this past year finished is the top 12 wide receiver and had eight touchdowns maybe it's the same kind of finish right I mean this 133 targets maybe he has 100 112 115 targets and maybe three to four touchdowns so I believe in Christian Kirk this year Brandon Cooks playing against these rookie Corners before versus the New York football Giants I think he can definitely eat over a thousand yards receiving a wide receiver no matter who the quarterback he's played with he did with uh Davis Mills obviously he didn't missed a couple times he almost did it with Davis Mills missed a couple um games there but Brandon Cooks I think a good Flex option coming into week one so let's not waste too much time on that George or excuse me Elijah Moore I'll put Elijah more in than George Pickers I kind of said his name already you guys know how bold bullish I am with Elijah Moore coming into this year I do believe he can have that range of a good floor of 12 points all the way up to 20 points and I will not be surprised if he can finish as a top 15 top 20 wide receiver at the end of week one and I'm saying hey I Told You So or it can be the opposite and when I say Elijah Moore ain't done nothing either so we'll see what happens in week one and then George Pickens with the connection that we've seen with Deontay or excuse me with Kenny Pickett the picket to picking connection I'm excited to see what's going to happen here playing the San Francisco 49ers who give up a good amount of points to the wide receiver position so definitely stay tuned for that I'm really excited to see what George Pickens can do and my last player here on my list Chris Godwin here or my last play on this tier seven excuse me is Chris Godwin another player that Zach and I have been disagreeing on I know Zach has Chris Goblin significantly higher he will start Chris Goblin over every single one of these players I think even in my tier six this is where Zach has Chris gone but for me I would rather wait on Chris Godwin and see what that looks like with Baker Mayfield Baker Mayfield I brought up brought up in one of my recent videos that bacon Mayfield has never produced or only produced one year a top 12 fantasy finish for wide receiver that was Jarvis Landry in 2019-2018 um go watch that video back again but for me I'm waiting I'm doing the wait and see approach for Chris Goddard but I won't be surprised if he does finish um you know in that 12 12 Fantasy Point range or even at that 20 Fantasy Point range all right my last tier for this video for week one I call this my flyers tier right if you don't have or spot starts flyer spot starts whatever you want to name it my first wide receiver once again I think a lot of people are going to be upset at is Mike Williams look very similar to Chris Kyle I need to see what that looks like with Baker Mayfield I can't see him consistently producing you know fantasy opportunities with Mike Evans he is playing the Minnesota Vikings so maybe there is some opportunity maybe I'm just overlooking it or overseeing it but I just don't know if I can trust it going into week one with Mike Evans my second wide receiver in my tier 8 is Jordan Addison playing the Tampa Bay Buccaneers another guy that like look if I had you know Terry and he's questionable I'm happy to start Jordan Addison if I have Christian Watson and he's questionable you know if he's not playing I'm happy to start Jordan Addison with the belief that Christian Kirk is going to be spreading the ball around coming into week one same thing with my next wide receiver Zay flowers these are old guys once again spot starts guys that I believe in say hey you know what I think these guys can play because Cooper Cubs out because John Smith and jigba is going to be limited I feel Over The Confident starting Zay flower special with all the high playing versus a good or I'm not a good a good matchup for Fantasy purposes playing the Houston Texans in week one I feel really confident starting as a flowers now this next one here as I'm recording this video Travis Kelsey is still in question it's still in question for week one so Sky Moore is available on your wave wires or on your teams and Travis Kelsey is not playing tonight Sky Moore I believe is a good plug in there and if you guys want come to our live 8 PM East or right before the game starts 20 minutes before the game kicks off we'll be answering all your start sick questions okay so make sure you join us for that my last two wide receivers on this tear is Michael Pittman and Hollywood brown with the rookie quarterback with Michael Pittman I really want to hold off right now I want I really want to wait and see what that looks like he is the number one Target on this offense but playing against the Jacksonville Jaguars divisional game I'm not I don't feel too confident in starting Michael pimmon because I can see him getting less than 10 points coming into week one and the same thing with Hollywood Brown starting with Josh Dobbs who just got picked up by the team just two weeks ago he's then the starting quarterback I don't want to start him at all but if you have if you need a spot start once again Christian Watson's out Cooper cups out Jerry Judy's out maybe Terry Corey Terry McClure doesn't play Hollywood Brown might be the next best option for you guys let me know comment down below we're going to answer all your fan or all your Starship questions for this video we're gonna be live 20 minutes before the Thursday night game if you
