5 Burning Fantasy Football Questions for Week 3 (2024)

Don’t look at your injury-depleted squad and think it’s over. It’s still early in the season and there are players who can help you in the championship fight.

Let’s answer some burning fantasy football questions you have for NFL Week 3.

Week 3 Fantasy Football Burning Questions

What do you think about Tyreek Hill’s value without Tua Tagovailoa?

It’s not as bad as other top receivers losing their quarterback.

Tyreek Hill is not only one of the best receivers in the league, but he is also one of the best athletes. Last year he was second among wide receivers with 12 broken tackles and third with 668 yards after the catch. They will plan plays for Skylar Thompson to get Hill the ball and let him use his athleticism.

Can I ride with Sam Darnold for the rest of the season?

It looks like you can. Minnesota has installed a good offense for Sam Darnold to excel. Justin Jefferson is one of the best receivers, Aaron Jones has become great in the backfield, and the offensive line gives him the most time in the pocket (2.6 seconds).

If those key pieces stay healthy, Darnold can thrive in this offense. It will also help if TJ Hockenson returns.

Is Is Brock Purdy droppable now?

We will soon find out the true value of Brock Purdy. It has not been a great start to the season, as he has been QB18 for the first two weeks. The schedule is in his favor, so there is some optimism as he faces the Rams, Patriots and Cardinals in the coming weeks.

The Rams rank third in points allowed to quarterbacks, followed by the Patriots, who were outscored by Aaron Rodgers, and the Cardinals, who rank fourth in points allowed to quarterbacks.

I’m going with him this week, but he could underperform again until his best players (Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle) return.

Can we expect Anthony Richardson in week 1 or week 2 for the rest of the season?

Can we say it’s going to be a little bit of both? We knew going into the season that Anthony Richardson wasn’t going to light up the scoreboard with his arm, but the power of his fantasy value comes from his legs.

He was 11th among quarterbacks in run-designed plays. He played just four complete games and led in run-designed play percentage. Mobile quarterbacks are inactive for fantasy and we’ll see more of Richardson’s legs in the future.

Can anyone on the Rams offense shine in the absence of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua?

If anyone was going to stand out, it was last week. The offense looked lost without Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp, and we didn’t see a single receiver step up as they were crushed by an Arizona defense that allowed 38 points against Buffalo the week before.

If we play San Francisco this week, it could be another tough game.
