Fantasy Cheat Sheet: Week 3
A week's worth of advice to help you make your last-minute moves
Week 3 Cheat Sheet
Each week, the cheat sheet combs through the choicest Insider fantasy advice to provide owners with last-minute roster advice for the weekend. Here is this week's edition.
Top Tips
Peyton Manning, QB, Denver Broncos: It wasn't so much just that Manning threw three picks in the first quarter of the Week 2 edition of "Monday Night Football" but rather how bad those throws were; after a strong start in Week 1, Manning's arm did not look to be up to NFL snuff. Add to that the fact the Broncos face the team with the highest defensive DVOA this week -- the Houston Texans -- and Danny Tuccitto of Football Outsiders believes that this is a week to sit Peyton.
To read more fantasy advice, including which players you should start and which you should avoid in Week 3, you must be an ESPN Insider.
