Drake London and George Pickens remain players to watch in Week 2
Summary

In the lead-up to Week 2, fantasy analysts advise against panicking about the performances of Drake London and George Pickens. Both receivers had disappointing starts, with London struggling due to a lack of effective quarterback play, while Pickens had a quiet Week 1 but is expected to rebound. Analysts note that London could regain his status as a must-start wide receiver if a different quarterback takes over for the struggling Cooper Rush. Meanwhile, Pickens is anticipated to bounce back after a solid Week 2 outing. The fantasy is shifting as Week 2 approaches, prompting close monitoring of their performances.
