Rankings: Quarterback | Running Back | Wide Receiver | Tight End
Guess how many wide receivers with top 10 ADPs are currently in the top 10 in fantasy scoring through 7 weeks? Three: Tyreek Hill, Davante Adams, and Justin Jefferson.
Surprise insertions into the top ten in average fantasy points scored in ppr are Deebo Samuel, Ja’Marr Chase, Cooper Kupp, and Mike Williams to name a few.
Last week Chase pretty much stole the ring as the WR1 in dynasty. I couldn’t imagine anyone trading him for Lamb or AJ Brown right now. For Wide Receiver Rankings Week 8 I’ve got Tyreek on MNF in my top spot and AJ Brown, Hopkins, and Diggs are rounding out the top five.
