Fantasy Football 2018: Start Em, Sit Em for Week 3
Along with my ten featured players, here are ten more in this week’s edition of Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em.
START ‘EM
- Quarterback – Jimmy Garoppolo vs Chiefs
- Running Back – Giovani Bernard vs Panthers
- Wide Receiver – Golden Tate vs Patriots
- Tight End – Evan Engram vs Texans
- Defense/Special Teams – Carolina vs Bengals
SIT ‘EM
- Quarterback – Dak Prescott vs Seahawks
- Running Back – Jamaal Williams vs Redskins
- Wide Receiver – Mike Williams vs Rams
- Tight End – Eric Ebron vs Eagles
- Defense/Special Teams – New Orleans vs Falcons
It’s a good strategy to start any quarterback playing against the Kansas City Chiefs because that defense is garbage. Jimmy G should definitely be able to expose that secondary and put up solid points this week.

Giovani Bernard is taking over for Joe Mixon this week, which that right there makes him a good option to start in fantasy football. As for Golden Tate, teams have had success passing against the Patriots defense, which makes Tate a good starting option this week.
Evan Engram is one of the better tight ends in the league despite his slowish start, but the Giants are a mess of a team. He’ll be worth starting due to garbage time points though. Lastly, the Panthers defense should do a better job at slowing down Andy Dalton than the previous two Bengals opponents did.
As for the Sit ‘Ems, Dak Prescott isn’t worth starting unless he’s going up against a really bad defense. He’s been disappointing so far this year. At running back, Jamaal Williams hasn’t popped in the way Packer fans and fantasy owners had hoped.
Mike Williams probably won’t make a ton of big plays against a tough Rams defense. Eric Ebron has been good through two games, but he’s sharing snaps with Jack Doyle and will now play an Eagles defense that’s solid against tight ends (for the most part). Lastly, don’t buy into the Saints defense just yet. They played well against the Browns. Need I say more there?
Hopefully these suggestions go better than last weeks bunch! Good luck in week three, everyone!
