Start ‘Em #1

Green Bay Packers. Davante Adams. 5. player. 49. Week 1 Projection: Standard: 12/PPR: 16. WR

The Green Bay Packers have one of the most prolific offenses in the NFL and that is due for the most part to superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers at the helm, but the good thing about Rodgers is that he doesn’t care who he’s throwing the ball to.

He’s just going to throw touchdowns.

Adams is the most likely candidate to replace him in Rodgers’ offense, so we could be seeing the next big fantasy success story form right before our eyes.

That’s where Davante Adams comes in.

Adams is a second year pro with the Packers and has just been handed a huge opportunity to make his splash in the NFL with #1 Packers receiver Jordy Nelson tearing his ACL in the preseason.

Adams is the most likely candidate to replace him in Rodgers’ offense, so we could be seeing the next big fantasy success story form right before our eyes.

Adams and the Packers start the season off against a greatly diminished and rebuilding Chicago Bears team that should get torn apart early and often by Rodgers, Adams, and co.

If you have room in your lineup, I wouldn’t hesitate to start Adams as a WR #2 this week and a very solid flex play as well. Get him in your lineup this week.
