Fantasy Football 2017: Start Em, Sit Em for Week 3
SIT ‘EM
Running Back. Eagles. LeGarrette Blount. 2. player. 54. Projected Points: 5.4
LeGarrette Blount might not fit in with the Philadelphia Eagles too well. He got his owners no points last week and only touched the football once against the Chiefs.
This week, the Eagles square off against the Giants, who aren’t great at stopping the run. Even with that said, however, I still don’t like Blount in this game. It’s clear that the Eagles prefer Darren Sproles over Blount and that was showcased in Kansas City last weekend.
Until Blount can get more than a single touch in a game, I’d keep him on your bench. Don’t drop him, as he’s shown he can be a massive impact player, but sit him until further notice.
If you like the match-up against the Giants, then go with Darren Sproles as your running back instead, but stay away from LeGarrette Blount in week three.
