Golladay, Kenny
(TBD)
Prior to the game, Lions beat reporters suggested both receivers would play but Jones likely would get more snaps. It actually went in the other direction, with Golladay using the opportunity to catch four passes for 69 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets. He probably won't technically challenge for the No. 2 role anytime soon, but it isn't out of the question that Golladay could get more targets, especially around the red zone. Anquan Boldin parlayed Detroit's No. 3 wideout role into 95 targets, 67 catches and eight touchdowns last season. Golladay made an impressive fade/jump ball catch for his first TD and then added an impressive 49 yard diving catch for his second score as he skidded into the end zone. Golladay can't be counted on to keep up his early pace, but he added a red zone element that the Lions desperately needed.

KUPP, COOPER
(SEA)
Kupp scored his touchdown early in a 46-9 blowout win against the Colts. His preseason tape showed a player who simply has a knack for getting open and he did just that in his first NFL game. Kupp led the team in yards and has a high volume ceiling in dynasty leagues.

THIELEN, ADAM
(MIN)
Is Adam Thielen the best receiver on the Vikings? Maybe? He did catch 9 passes for 157 yards in week 1 against the Aints (typo intended) defense. Of course, Diggs scored 2 TDs, but this proved that both starting WRs are fantasy worthy this year.
