Top Week 2 Fantasy football QB rankings

Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 2 Fantasy football QB picks:

1. Jalen Hurts , Philadelphia Eagles : Hurts completed 20 of 34 pass attempts for 278 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing 13 times for 33 yards in Philadelphia's victory over the Packers . He provided huge rushing numbers for Fantasy owners last season, finishing with 605 rushing yards and 15 rushing touchdowns, which were the most ever for a quarterback in a single season. This week, Hurts and the Eagles take on the Atlanta Falcons , a defense that gave up 137 rushing yards last week.

2. Josh Allen , Buffalo Bills : Allen wasted no time showing why he was the No. 1 quarterback drafted in the majority of leagues this season. He completed 18-of-23 passes for 232 yards and two scores, while also rushing for 39 yards and two touchdowns in last week's victory over the Cardinals .

3. Patrick Mahomes , Kansas City Chiefs : Mahomes completed 20 of 28 passes for 291 yards with one touchdown and one interception in the Chiefs' 27-20 win over the Ravens . Mahomes' impressive yardage total and efficiency notably came with Travis Kelce recording only three receptions, which is encouraging as the Chiefs are set to host the Cincinnati Bengals in an early season showdown on Sunday.

Top Week 2 Fantasy football RB rankings

Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 2 Fantasy football RB picks:

1. Saquon Barkley, Philadelphia Eagles: Barkley became the first player to record three touchdowns in a debut with the Eagles since wide receiver Terrell Owens accomplished the feat in 2004. He finished last week's game with 24 carries for 109 yards and two touchdowns, while also recording two receptions for 23 yards and another score.

2. J.K. Dobbins, Los Angeles Chargers: Dobbins has dealt with numerous injuries in his career, but he was extremely effective in his debut with the Chargers last Sunday. Dobbins made the most of his 10 carries, finishing with 135 yards and a touchdown. He averaged 13.5 yards per carry and now he'll take on a Carolina Panthers defense that gave up 47 points in Week 1.

3. Bijan Robinson, Atlanta Falcons: Robinson was heavily involved in Atlanta's offensive game plan last week. He dominated the touches in the backfield, accounting for 18 of Atlanta's 21 carries by running backs. He also led the team in receptions, securing five receptions on five targets for 43 yards.

Top Week 2 Fantasy football WR rankings

Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 2 Fantasy football WR picks:

1. CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys: Lamb was sensational for the Cowboys last season, finishing with 1,749 receiving yards and 14 total touchdowns. He was targeted 10 times in last week's win over the Browns and he's expected to be heavily involved again on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints.

2. Cooper Kupp, Los Angeles Rams: Kupp looked sharp in the Week 1 loss to the Lions, recording 14 catches for 110 yards and a touchdown. He was targeted a whopping 21 times and he's expected to see a lot of targets again on Sunday with fellow wideout Puka Nacua sidelined with a knee injury.

3. A.J. Brown, Philadelphia Eagles: Brown is part of a loaded Eagles offense that can strike at any time. His speed and elusiveness were on full display last week when he ripped off a 67-yard touchdown catch against Green Bay. A home meeting against the Falcons is on deck for Brown, who finished with five receptions for 119 yards and a score last week. See more top WRs here .

Top Week 2 Fantasy football TE rankings

Here's a look at SportsLine's top Week 2 Fantasy football TE picks:

1. Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs: Kelce was quiet in Kansas City's win over the Ravens, catching three of four targets for 34 yards. Kelce should have a more robust role this week against the Bengals, who are coming off a surprising loss to the New England Patriots .

2. Isaiah Likely , Baltimore Ravens: Likely was one of the biggest breakouts in Week 1, catching nine of 12 targets for 111 yards and a touchdown. Likely was inches away from hauling in a second touchdown reception and the model likes his chances of having another strong showing on Sunday against the Raiders.

3. George Kittle , San Francisco 49ers : Kittle finished as San Francisco's third leading receiver on a night where the 49ers only had 19 completions. Kittle is coming off his third campaign recording at least 65 receptions, 1,000 receiving yards and five touchdowns, so he'll remain a consistent factor in San Francisco's aerial attack moving forward.

Top Week 2 Fantasy football defense rankings

Here's a look at SportsLine's top three Week 2 Fantasy football D/ST picks:

1. Jets D/ST: The Jets didn't give up a single passing touchdown in their season-opening loss to the 49ers, and now they'll take on the Tennessee Titans , an offense that gave up three sacks and two interceptions last week.

2. Texans D/ST: The Texans will take on the Chicago Bears on Sunday night. Chicago's offense didn't generate a single point in its Week 1 victory over the Titans and rookie quarterback Caleb Williams finished with 93 passing yards in his NFL debut.

3. Chargers D/ST: The Chargers are set to play the Carolina Panthers in Week 2. The Panthers scored only 10 points in the opener as quarterback Bryce Young threw for just 161 yards, zero touchdowns and two interceptions. See more top D/ST here .
