Daily Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Primer: Week 2

Week 1 in the NFL was filled with dominant performances from wide receivers, as 12 difference receivers scored over 20 fantasy points, including three over 30 and Sammy Watkins setting the pace with a ridiculous 42-point effort.

Teams continue to become more efficient in their approach to throwing the ball -- by increasing their usage of play action, for example -- which means high-scoring outbursts like we saw in Week 1 may become more common.

Hopefully we can identify a few of those outbursts in this wide receiver breakdown.

In this preview, I'll break down the wide receivers into three categories based on FanDuel's prices: players to build around, value plays, and players to avoid.
