Quarterbacks

Aaron Rodgers, Pittsburgh Steelers (17.9% rostered; vs. Seahawks)

Aaron Rodgers silenced critics with a stellar Week 1 performance, throwing four touchdowns against the Jets. His efficiency (22 of 30 passing) and Arthur Smith's play-calling, which included boot schemes, provided clean throwing platforms. While a repeat of his 25-point game is unlikely, Rodgers' play-action and quick-game concepts should exploit the Seahawks' defense.

Michael Penix Jr., Atlanta Falcons (26.5% rostered; at Vikings)

Michael Penix Jr. impressed in Week 1 with 24.02 points against the Buccaneers, showcasing his dual-threat capabilities. His rushing touchdown and 21 yards on the ground add value, especially if wide receiver Drake London (shoulder) is active. Penix's ability to distribute the ball to multiple playmakers could exploit a Vikings defense that allowed 24.2 points to Caleb Williams.

Running Backs

Trey Benson, Arizona Cardinals (54.5% rostered; vs. Panthers)

Despite James Conner leading the Cardinals' backfield, Trey Benson's nine touches and a 52-yard carry in Week 1 highlight his big-play potential. Facing a Panthers defense that allowed 143 rushing yards to Travis Etienne Jr., Benson is a valuable deeper-league option.

Kenneth Gainwell, Pittsburgh Steelers (7.4% rostered; vs. Seahawks)

Kenneth Gainwell out-snapped rookie Kaleb Johnson in Week 1, sharing the backfield with Jaylen Warren. While his 23 total yards weren't eye-popping, Gainwell's pass-catching ability and expected backfield split with Warren make him a solid PPR option.

Wide Receivers

Olamide Zaccheaus, Chicago Bears (0.5% rostered; at Lions)

Olamide Zaccheaus emerged as a reliable target for Caleb Williams in Week 1, catching four passes for 42 yards. His seven targets were second-most on the team, and Ben Johnson's scheming could further exploit the Lions' man-coverage.

Wan'Dale Robinson, New York Giants (30.6% rostered; at Cowboys)

Wan'Dale Robinson, despite an ankle injury, is a solid PPR option if active. His six catches for 55 yards in Week 1 and the absence of starting nickel corner DaRon Bland could boost his production against the Cowboys.

Tight End

Juwan Johnson, New Orleans Saints (34.0% rostered; vs. 49ers)

Juwan Johnson tied his career-high with eight catches in Week 1, amassing 76 yards on 11 targets. As an underneath/quick-game target, Johnson's chemistry with Spencer Rattler and the Saints' high passing volume make him a strong play against the 49ers' zone defense.

Defense/Special Teams

Los Angeles Rams (51.3% rostered; at Titans)

The Rams defense, with three sacks, a forced fumble, and an interception in Week 1, is a prime pickup against the Titans and rookie quarterback Cam Ward. Expect the Rams to exploit Tennessee's protection schemes with loaded fronts, creating favorable pass-rush matchups.
