Fantasy Football Week 2 Rankings, Levels for QB, RB, WR, TE, Kickers and Defensive Backs

My initial fantasy football rankings for NFL Week 2 are here, but there could be quite a bit of movement between now and kickoff.

These projections will evolve throughout the week as you dig deeper into Week 1 data. As always, be sure to check out my updated rankings and projections before making final lineup decisions.

To help you start making initial decisions, I’ve outlined the first version of my Week 2 fantasy rankings into tiers so you can better visualize the drop in expected production at each position. I’ve also included usage notes on key players at the end of each section.

Let’s dive into the initial version of my Week 2 fantasy football levels below!
