Kenny Britt - WR - Browns

Kenny Britt caught 3-of-10 targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss the Colts.

Britt was hardly efficient, dropping another pass this week, but led the Browns in targets in their first game without Corey Coleman. Britt reeled in an 11-yard touchdown, fighting through a pass interference call late in the 4th Quarter. With Coleman out for several weeks, Britt should remain a cheap source of target volume, but will only be a flex option next week against the Bengals.

James White - RB - Patriots

James White caught his only target for 11 yards and rushed five times for 17 yards in the Patriots' Week 3 win over the Texans.

It is a very disappointing stat line in a game Tom Brady threw for 378 yards and five touchdowns. On the bright side, White continues to be used in the red zone -- he was tackled inside the five yet again in this game -- and should find the end zone in the near future as long as that continues. White will be a FLEX option next week against the Panthers.
Sep 24 - 5:30 PM
LeGarrette Blount - RB - Eagles

LeGarrette Blount rushed 12 times for 67 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' Week 3 win over the Giants.

As Darren Sproles (wrist) went out early, the Eagles turned to a rotation of Blount, Wendell Smallwood, and Corey Clement. Blount was their most effective runner between the tackles and should remain a double-digit carry guy moving forward, playing more especially if Sproles' injury is serious. Either way, Blount will remain a risky, touchdown-dependent flex option in Week 4 against the Chargers.
Sep 24 - 5:29 PM
Emmanuel Sanders - WR - Broncos

Emmanuel Sanders caught 7-of-15 passes for 75 yards in Week 3 against Buffalo.

It was a rough game for Sanders, who couldn't come down with a wide open 44-yard catch. He had some early success against rookie CB Tre'Davious White, but didn't do much in the second half. Sanders saw more targets than Demaryius Thomas and has been Trevor Siemian's go-to receiver this season. He'll remain a low-end WR2 for Week 4 against Oakland.
Sep 24 - 5:27 PM
Coby Fleener - TE - Saints

Coby Fleener caught one pass for 21 yards in the Saints' Week 3 win over the Panthers.

The only other time Fleener was heard from was a holding penalty. It was a disappointing game for Fleener in a good matchup. With Willie Snead returning for Week 4, it will be hard to trust Fleener as a spot starter at tight end.
Sep 24 - 5:26 PM
Zach Ertz - TE - Eagles

Zach Ertz caught 8-of-10 targets for 55 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' Week 3 win over the Giants.

Ertz was the clear-cut "chalk" in DFS this week, and he paid dividends with a two-yard touchdown in addition to a bunch of short catches after which Ertz struggled to generate RAC. Ertz will get an average matchup in Week 4 against the Chargers, but he will remain a shoo-in top-ten fantasy TE1 play.
Sep 24 - 5:25 PM
Mike Gillislee - RB - Patriots

Mike Gillislee rushed 12 times for 31 yards in the Patriots' Week 3 win over the Texans.

While he found the end zone the first two weeks, this is the downside of a touchdown-dependent option like Gillislee, although there likely will not be many games in which the Patriots score 36 and Gillislee does not get a piece of the action. He will be a risk-reward RB2 next week against the Panthers.
Sep 24 - 5:24 PM
Golden Tate - WR - Lions

Golden Tate caught 7-of-11 targets for 58 yards and one touchdown in the Lions' Week 3 loss to the Falcons.

Tate appeared to score a one-yard touchdown with eight seconds left to give the Lions a one-point lead, but it was ruled he was down at the half-yard line and the game ended with a 10-second runoff. Tate took some huge hits on Sunday but was able to get his first touchdown of the year and has seen double-digit targets in 2-of-3 games. Tate is a rock-solid WR2 ahead of Week 4 at Minnesota.
