Kasen Williams catches one pass in Week 3.

Williams had a ten-yard reception on one of his two targets. It’d be nice to see him get more opportunities after he lit up the preseason.

Terrance West rushes four times in Sunday’s loss to the Steelers.

He finished with negative-seven yards and didn’t catch a pass. Baltimore should make it a two-man backfield with Alex Collins and Javorius Allen, and they started moving in that direction in Week 4. West can be dropped.

Jarvis Landry catches six passes in Dolphins’ loss.

Landry was targeted on mostly quick passes, gaining 40 yards on his six receptions. The fourth-year receiver has had at least six receptions for 40 yards in each of the first three games and is up to 25 receptions through three games, so he’ll remain a great PPR option against the Titans in Week 5.

Marshawn Lynch and the Raiders completely shut down on MNF.

Lynch rushed six times for 18 yards and caught an eight-yard pass. By the second half, he almost looked disinterested in playing as the Redskins dominated Oakland all night. Averaging 3.9 yards per carry behind an elite offensive line, Lynch has struggled to start the season. Also, splitting work with two other running backs and even Cordarrelle Patterson, Lynch is just a FLEX option against Denver next Sunday.

Austin Hooper held to one catch in Week 3 win.

It went for nine yards. Hooper now has two-straight quiet games after getting open for two long gains against busted coverage in the season opener. He’s not a good fantasy option against Buffalo next week.

Tevin Coleman sees just nine touches but turns them into 89 yards in Falcons’ win.

Coleman rushed six times for 46 yards and caught three passes for 43 yards, as backfield mate Devonta Freeman handled 24 touches, which he turned into 138 yards. Fantasy owners can keep Coleman in their lineups every week as a high-upside RB2/FLEX, and it would be surprising if he didn’t handle more touches soon, as he’s averaging a whopping 6.62 yards per touch so far this season.  Hopefully he gets at least 12 touches next Sunday against the Bills.

Julio Jones (hip) is not expected to miss any time.

Of course there was some concern, but this isn’t that surprising considering the Falcons have a bye in Week 5. It’s just a hip flexor injury for Jones, so hopefully he’ll be ready to go in Week 6 against the Dolphins. The superstar receiver is one of the best buy low candidates out there despite the injury and no touchdowns yet this season, as he obviously offers massive upside each week.
