Looking at Week 2 of Fantasy Football for the Raiders

The Las Vegas Raiders were decently represented in fantasy football as they defeated the Denver Broncos, 17-16, in Week 1.

Here are the Raiders who stood out, as well as what is expected of them this upcoming Sunday against the Buffalo Bills:

Wide receiver Jakobi Meyers

If you selected Meyers late in your fantasy draft this year and started him in your lineup Sunday, you were probably ecstatic with the performance he displayed.

The first-year Raiders wide receiver finished Week 1 with 29.1 points per reception (PPR) fantasy points and 20.1 non-PPR points due to his nine receptions for 81 yards and two touchdowns.

Meyers is in concussion protocol, and his status for Week 2 is to be determined.

As of now, ESPN has him projected to record 12.07 PPR points and 6.94 non-PPR points on Sunday.

Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo

Garoppolo had a decent fantasy outing in Week 1, having posted 15.1 PPR and non-PPR points as he passed for 200 yards and two touchdowns, with an interception.

The veteran quarterback is projected by ESPN to have about the same kind of game this weekend (14.82 PPR/non-PPR points).

Wide receiver Davante Adams

Adams' spotlight might have been taken by his new teammate, Meyers, but the three-time first-team All-Pro receiver still had himself a respectable display in Week 1.

He wound up with 12.6 PPR points and 6.6 non-PPR points in the victory, having recorded 66 yards on six receptions.

ESPN projects Adams to have a much more noticeable Week 2, as he is predicted to total 20.71 PPR points and 13.0 non-PPR points.

Running back Josh Jacobs

The NFL's defending rushing champion did not make the biggest splash in the run game in the Raiders' Week 1 win, but between his 48 rushing yards and 23 receiving yards, he put together a decent fantasy showcase.

Jacobs wound up with 9.1 PPR points and 7.1 non-PPR. He is projected by ESPN to have a much better game against Buffalo (15.67 PPR points and 12.21 non-PPR points).

Kicker Daniel Carlson

Carlson's field goal and two extra points earned him 5.0 PPR and non-PPR points against Denver.

ESPN projects the kicker to finish Week 2 with 7.63 PPR/non-PPR points.

The Silver and Black remain on the road this week as they travel to play the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, Sept. 17, at 1:05 p.m. EDT/10:05 a.m. PDT.
