Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Cam Akers(rib) left Week 2 early with a rib injury, and he missed practice on Wednesday as a result. If he misses the game because of the injury, obviously you’re not playing him. However, if he’s active, Akers will be nothing more than an extremely risky RB3/flex in this crowded Rams backfield. Through two games, he’s averaging just 3.1

Chicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham will try and up his production in Week 3 against the Falcons. Graham caught only one pass for 18 yards last week after securing his first touchdown of the season in Week 1. The veteran will go up against a Falcons Defense that has allowed a touchdown to a tight end in each of their first two games and

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen is still looking for a huge play heading into the team’s matchup with the Falcons in Week 3. Cohen has only 12 carries on the season and 27 receiving yards through two games, but will have a favorable tilt against the Falcons. Atlanta is allowing 39 points a game to opponents through the first two weeks and have surrendered

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson lit it up in Week 2, but it’s unclear what his role will be heading into Week 3. He contributed nothing in Week 1 and he looked as though he would be the backup in Week 2 prior to the injury to teammate Cam Akers. If Henderson is the lead back in Week 3, we’re confident in using

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery will look to build off a strong Week 2 performance this Sunday against the Falcons in Atlanta. Montgomery delivered 127 all-purpose yards and one touchdown in the Bears win against the Giants and now will face a Falcons Defense that allowing an average of 39 points a game. The Bears offense has been inconsistent through two weeks but the

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff showed out in Week 2. He finished as the QB12 on the week, and he has the opportunity to do it again in Week 3. This offense is actively working to get the ball out of his hands quickly to his receivers, and it’s working to a good amount of success. In Week 2, he didn’t put up a

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees said he feels “borderline great” despite a disappointing performance in the Monday night loss to the Raiders in Week 2. The 41-year-old future Hall of Famer completed 26 of 38 passes for 312 yards, one touchdown and a passer rating of 91.1, but he also threw an ugly interception on a forced pass and had an air-yards-per-attempt mark below

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski is better left on the bench for the Week 3 matchup against the Broncos. Through two games, QB Tom Brady‘s old pal has only seen four targets and converted it to 11 yards total. While Gronk can be a game-changing player, he hasn’t proved that he can be trusted yet in fantasy for this season. It’s best to

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin will finally return to action in Week 3 after missing last week due to being in the concussion protocol. Last we saw of him in Week 1, he was performing quite well and got 79 yards on seven targets. The Broncos allow the fifth-highest points to opposing WRs and are missing cornerback A.J. Buoye, meaning this is a

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is a solid WR1 for Week 3 against the Broncos. After a bad Week 1 showing, Evans rebounded with a great Week 2 which saw him accumulate 10 targets and 104 yards. It seems the chemistry between the WR and his new QB Tom Brady is slowly developing into something strong. Now facing a Broncos secondary without A.J.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II should only be considered a flex piece for this week’s matchup against Denver. Jones started off the season great with 17 carries in Week 1 before getting only seven carries in Week 2. The direct reason why is the presence of Leonard Fournette, who eclipsed 100 yards rushing in Week 2. Now, Jones’ role remains unclear, but

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette should be considered an RB2 in this week’s contest against the Broncos. The workhorse back finally showed his true colors last week by erupting for 103 rush yards on 12 carries. Nevertheless, this Tampa Bay RBs unit remains a mystery considering Fournette only had five carries for five yards in Week 1. It’s definitely still unclear as to

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady should be considered a QB2 for Week 3. Brady has started the season thus far with three touchdowns and three picks while only throwing for 217 and 239 yards, respectively. This week, he will face the Broncos, a team he has often times struggled against. Not helping the matter is the fact that Denver is middle-of-the-pack in points allowed

Carolina Panthers kicker Joey Slye is a viable streaming option in Week 3 against the Chargers. He connected on all three of his field goals last week and two of them were from over 40 yards. In addition, the Chargers have allowed the fourth-most points to kickers. The only downside to Slye this week is that the Panthers offense could be stalled due to the

The Carolina Panthers Defense will likely draw a matchup against Chargers rookie quarterbackJustin Herbert this Sunday. While it may seem tempting to roll out this defense, it’s important to consider that Herbert performed quite well against the Chiefs last week and threw for over 300 yards. In addition, the Panthers just allowed over 30 points in both of their games and still have a very

Carolina Panthers tight end Ian Thomas should remain out of lineups in Week 3. He was an absolute non-factor in last week’s game and finished with nothing. In Week 1, he accumulated only 13 yards. It’s certainly disappointing to see the new TE1 on the team not be a factor at all in the passing game. Unless his role increases by a good margin, Thomas

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel is not a viable starter in this week’s bout against the Chargers. The dual-threat player only has 51 receiving yards and 31 rushing yards in two weeks. He is now considered the WR3 on the team with the emergence of Robby Anderson and though he could see more rushing opportunities with the absence of Christian McCaffrey, the volume remains

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson has impressed in his first two games with the team, getting over 100 yards in both and seeing at least eight targets. While it’s encouraging to see Anderson start out hot, it remains to be seen if his target share and yardage will remain consistent in the weeks ahead. For this week, he should be a flex when he

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore should be considered a high-end WR2 for this week’s contest against the Chargers. As the WR1 on this team, Moore has proved he is worthy of his role, grabbing at least nine targets in two games and 120 yards in Week 2 as well. The Chargers present a tough matchup for opposing wideouts, but Moore’s rich value on this

Carolina Panthers running back Mike Davis should only be considered a flex piece for this week’s matchup against the Chargers. With Christian McCaffrey on injured reserve for the next month or so, the journeyman RB Davis will take lead rusher duties. Right off the bat, he faces a tough matchup as the Chargers have allowed the third-fewest points to opposing RBs to start the season.
