5. player. 124. Week 3 Prediction: Standard: 15/PPR: 18. RB. Kansas City Chiefs. Knile Davis
Start ‘Em #1
If Jamaal Charles misses the Chiefs game against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, Knile Davis is a MUST start RB. The Chiefs whole offense is based around the abilities of Jamaal Charles and the run game and in his absence, I don’t think that will change much.
Knile and the Chiefs go up against a mediocre Miami Dolphins rushing defense in week 3, and I see Davis putting up similar numbers to those he had in his monster week 2.
Davis is a very talented back, and like Charles has tons of speed and big-play ability. Even with Charles out of Andy Reid‘s game plan week 3, I still think we will see a lot of runs, short passes, and screen plays run for the second-year back.
Charles got hurt early in the Broncos/Chiefs matchup in week 2 and Davis was there to take the load. He ended up with 28 touches, including 6 catches tallying 105 total yards and 2 rushing TDs for a total of a whopping 21 fantasy points (27 in PPR).
Knile and the Chiefs go up against a mediocre Miami Dolphins rushing defense in week 3, and I see Davis putting up similar numbers to those he had in his monster week 2.
This is why I have Davis as a must start for week 3. If you have him, start him. In all leagues.
Consider him a solid #2 RB in week 3.
