Week 1 PPR WR Rankings 2019

September 3, 2019 by Kurt Turner

You shouldn't of had any trouble drafting WR this season. But you're probably wondering who to start now! Well I'm here to help with my week 1, 2019 wide receiver rankings for PPR leagues. I'm going to just come out and say it, this is going to be a volatile season at WR. Teams pick and choose their poison week by week as they play the matchup game now more than ever. No later than week 4 I'll have a much better understanding of what the offensive is more likely to exploit. Until then I'm just going to wing it based on last seasons numbers. For the record, I've had a pretty hot start historically for week 1. And I just jinxed myself. Scroll to the bottom for my watch-list. Much like I did in my RB rankings.

My Week 1 Watch List

The watch list is key to dominating your league. For the first 4 weeks of the season, maybe more, I'll give you my personal watch list. Guys we're trying to catch on the waivers before they move up the rankings.

  1. Zay Zones - a 3rd year WR that is probably going to do nothing in Buffalo, but just like in Dumb and Dumber "so you're telling me there's a chance".
  2. Devante Parker - sitting at the bottom of my rankings for a reason, maybe this is the year he translates into some sort of fantasy relevance?
  3. Christian Kirk - he's been all the rage in camp, but AZ is going to run more 4 wide receiver sets than any other NFL team. Let's see how this shakes out of the next several weeks.
  4. Jamison Crowder - Someone has to step up besides Anderson.
  5. Deebo Samuel - Targets should be open for grabs in SF. If he blows up week 1 (which is likely vs TB) then he's an add if you're thin at WR.
