A quiet opener from Kyle Pitts is not enough to create real concern, especially considering Atlanta's quarterback situation.

De'Von Achane creates a more complicated discussion. The talent and workload remain attractive, but Miami's struggling offense could lower the fantasy ceiling managers expected.

There are also questions surrounding Colston Loveland after Chicago scored 59 points without him recording a catch. The concern is less about talent and more about how many mouths Ben Johnson has to feed.

Parker Washington is becoming impossible to ignore. His Week 1 usage continued the breakout we saw last season, creating legitimate discussion about just how high he belongs in dynasty rankings.

Kenneth Walker made an equally strong statement. His combination of talent, workload, and offensive environment has him pushing into the top tier of dynasty running backs.
