Fantasy Football Week 3: Start’em / Sit’em

Wide Receiver
Allen Robinson, @NE (69%, 9) – The Jags could fall behind early leading to plenty of targets for A-Rob. After a disappointing week 1, Robinson had 2 TDs and 155 yards on just six catches last week. Blake Bortles still worries me, but Robinson is his clear first option.
John Brown, SF (50%, 8) – Has been able to get open deep at will so far this season. If not for two pass interference calls, Brown would have had well over 100 yards receiving and possibly two TDs last week. This could be a huge week for the Palmer / Brown combo.
Terrance Williams, ATL (48%, 7) – Despite Jerry Jones claims otherwise, QB Brandon Weeden is not good. Williams played pretty well even with Weeden under center last week and he should be Weeden’s #1 target for the foreseeable future.

Donte Moncrief, @TEN (45%, 8) – It’s looking like a breakout season for Moncrief who is averaging 9.5 targets per game. He has the size (6’2 | 222) and explosiveness to be a legit #1 WR and has done enough this season to earn starting snaps this week.
Stevie Johnson, @MIN (36%, 7) – Bolts WR1 Keenan Allen will be blanketed by stand-out CB Xavier Rhodes, but Johnson should line up across from slot corner Marcus Sherels and has the experience and quickness to get open all day.
Kendall Wright, IND (35%, 7) -Wright was a disappointment in week 2, but the match-up vs the Colts could be a high scoring affair and Wright should be Mariota’s #1 target.
