Fantasy football is heading into the third week of the season and we’re still unsure of what a vast majority of these guys will do in fantasy production. Who should you start and who should you sit this week?

It’s still difficult by this point in the season to know just who you can trust and who to doubt in your fantasy football lineups. Hopefully this week’s edition of Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em will help you out a bit if you have any questions concerning your potential week three lineup.

Before we officially dive in, let’s check out how I did with my featured candidates last week, starting with who I recommended having in your lineups.

  • Dak Prescott – While not as good as last week, he had 27.7 fantasy points in week two.
  • Sony Michel – Despite sharing carries, he had 12.3 fantasy points vs the Fins.
  • Tyler Lockett – Finished his afternoon with 17.9 fantasy points in Pittsburgh.
  • Mark Andrews – He continued to be a good start, totaling 25.2 fantasy points.
  • Buffalo D/ST – The Bills only had five fantasy points, but continue to be a good option.

Now, let’s see who I recommended keeping on the bench and how that worked out if you followed my advice.

  • Kirk Cousins – Hopefully you’re not relying on him because he had just 8.9 fantasy points.
  • Aaron Jones – This was a bad call on my end; He had 25 fantasy points vs the Vikings.
  • Emmanuel Sanders – Another bad decision, as Sanders had 28.8 fantasy points.
  • Tyler Eifert – He’s slowly being forgotten about in Cincy; Only 9.9 fantasy points.
  • Jacksonville D/ST – Fared better than expected posting nine fantasy points vs Houston.

Some of those were not my best advice, so hopefully I do better this week! Let’s get to it.
