Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans didn't have a great season opener, but was still able to contribute in the win. Evans hauled in five of his eight targets for 51 yards in the victory over the Atlanta Falcons. The veteran wideout finished with the team-high in receptions and targets. However, Evans saw his fantasy value take a dip with Emeka Egubka and Bucky Irving catching the three touchdowns. Fantasy managers shouldn't be worried as Evans is one of the most consistent wideouts in the league. He should get the benefit of the doubt and remain on the WR1 radar for the upcoming matchup against the Houston Texans.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown put together an unbelievable performance against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. St. Brown was fairly quiet in the season opener with four receptions for 45 yards in the Week 1 loss. He completely exploded in Week 2 giving fantasy managers an epic afternoon. St. Brown hauled in nine of his 11 targets for 115 yards and three touchdowns in the win. The Bears secondary had absolutely no answers for St. Brown all afternoon long. The superstar wideout recorded his first career three-touchdown game. The Lions offense erupted for 52 points, but we'll see if they can keep it going next week against the Baltimore Ravens. St. Brown should be viewed as a mid-range WR1 for that one.
