The top-tier at wide receiver will be solidly cemented into your lineups every week regardle s of matchups. At a position where you're playing two guys every week, there's no real reason any of the top 24-odd wideouts would be on your bench. Like all positions, wide receivers are affected by their matchups, trends, Anthony Mack Jersey and injury concerns. However, as indicated by our Week 1 fantasy WR rankings, it's the deepest position in all of fantasy football. We have nearly 90 players ranked in our initial weekly list. For all you deep=league players, that even accounts for WR6s and some WR7s. For those kinds of leagues, it's especially difficult to make a decision on who to start at wide receiver.Obviously, there are many teams with uncertainty about how their target share will play out, but we've produced our rankings with all the latest news and trends we can gather in the preseason. As the year unfolds, there will be guys who plummet down the list, while someone among the WR4s always emerges in the top 20. It's the nature of fantasy football, especially as pa s-catchers go.WEEK 1 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | As these are our standard rankings, it's obviously important to identify which wideouts are more valuable acro s each format (hopefully you did that before you drafted). Splash-play guys like Tyreek Hill (vs. Browns)especially benefit from standard formats. He's our No. 1 WR in standard while he falls to No. 4 in PPR this week.WEEK 1 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | Notable risers in Week 1 include Brandon Aiyuk (@ Lions) and Adam Thielen (@ Bengals). All 49ers see boosts this week given their matchups with Sean Taylor Jersey Detroit (including Jimmy G and 49ers defense). Thielen and Justin Jefferson both sit in the top 10 as they travel to Cincinnati to play what figures to be a poor Bengals defense.WEEK 1 FANTASY: | | Heading deeper down the list, Antonio Brown (vs. Cowboys) and DeVonta Smith (@ Falcons) might have been borderline WR3s on draft day, but they look like solid starts this week thanks to great matchups. Though two other WRs in Tampa are inside our top 10, there will be plenty of targets to go around. It won't be totally shocking to see three top-24 WRs out of that offense this week. Smith has dealt with some injury concerns, but he's the No. 1 WR in an offense facing the Falcons -- a team that has been a lot of fun to start your players against in recent years.WEEK 1 DFS LINEUPS: | | You might be confused as to why DK Metcalf (@ Colts) and Stefon Diggs (vs. Steelers) sit at 11 and 12 respectively, but it all has to do with the matchups. While Indianapolis doesn't po se s a premier lockdown corner, their defense is disruptive, and we've seen what can happen to Ru sell Wilson behind a struggling Seahawks offensive Sam Waardenburg Jersey line. So, it isn't that Metcalf will be shut down, but there are other factors in place. Diggs is in a similar spot. The Steelers have a well-known track record of getting to the quarterback -- and seemingly doing it with ease. Yes, he had a nice game against them last year, but it is worth noting he's dealing with a minor knee injury heading in 2021. Still, neither Diggs nor Metcalf is even remotely close to seeing your bench.Kenny Golladay (vs. Broncos) takes a drastic dive to slot 42 with his hamstring injury concerns. He's seldom practiced, so he and Daniel Jones will have to build rapport on the fly. Can we expect them to be sharp in Week 1?Check out our full list and analysis to make the right calls at WR, setting yourself up for 1-0 start in fantasy football.MORE WEEK 1 DFS: | | We'll be updating these WR rankings as needed throughout the week, so check back for the latest changes and analysis. Rank Player 1Tyreek Hill, KC vs. CLE2Davante Adams, GB vs. NO3DeAndre Hopkins, ARI @ TEN4Calvin Ridley, ATL vs. PHI5Justin Jefferson, MIN @ CIN6A.J. Brown, TEN vs. ARI7Mike Evans, TB vs. DAL.Simply put, the Buccaneers are playing an awful Dallas defense. They gave up the second-most fantasy points to WRs a season ago, despite their opponents only pa sing 32.1 times a game against them (second fewest). They were often in big deficits, so teams began just running the ball. Evans and co. should eat in Week 1.8Chris Ebuka Izundu Jersey Godwin, TB vs. DAL.See Mike Evans.9Brandon Aiyuk, SF @ DET.The Lions gave up the third-most fantasy points to wideouts last season, and they did very little to improve their standing in that area. If healthy, Aiyuk should torch them as the No. 1 WR in the 49er's offense.10Adam Thielen, MIN @ CIN.Thielen is more valuable in standard leagues, as he's often fairly touchdown-dependent, but he faces off against a bad Bengals secondary. With all eyes on Justin Jefferson, he could make a run Dejan Vasiljevic Jersey at a WR1 spot this week. We ranked him accordingly.11DK Metcalf, SEA @ IND.Metcalf is viewed as a top-five wide receiver in standard leagues, but he faces a tough matchup in Week 1. Indianapolis has carried a strong defense over the last few seasons, and Metcalf will likely be priority No. 1. He's still a top-12 play, so you obviously aren't even thinking about benching him.12Stefon Diggs, BUF vs. PIT.Before there's outrage about Diggs' Week 1 ranking, remember Pittsburgh po se ses a top defense with few weakne ses at all three levels. Whether the pa s-rush makes life hard for Josh Allen, or the stud secondary of Pittsburgh is double-teaming Diggs, it makes it tough to rank him inside the top-five this week. He did have a great outing against them a year ago (10-130-1), but it's fair to a sume Mike Tomlin's unit will be ready to go this time around. Still, he's Stefon Diggs after all, so don't think about benching him.13Keenan Allen, LAC @ WAS14D.J. Moore, CAR vs. NYJ.Moore finished as the WR17 in standard leagues last season, so a high-end WR2 Week 1 standing would be no surprise. The Jets were a middle-of-the-road team in fantasy points given up to WRs last season, but an improved offense should mean more pa s attempts for opponents. While there is target competition in Carolina, Moore is the most talented guy in the WR room and looks to build early chemistry with Sam Darnold.15Cooper Kupp, LAR vs Dominic Proctor Jersey . CHI. Chicago's secondary was solid last year (sixth-best defense in FPPG allowed to WRs), but the Rams look to be one of the top pa sing games in the NFL with Matthew Stafford taking over the quarterback position. With Cam Akers lost for the season with a torn Achilles
