Week 3 Fantasy Football Sleepers: Start Blake Corum, Adonai Mitchell

Sports Illustrated • • sports

Key Points:

  • Sam Darnold is a strong streaming option at quarterback for Week 3 against the Commanders, who have allowed the third-most fantasy points and fifth-highest EPA per dropback so far this season.
  • Running back Blake Corum shares a near-even touch split with Kyren Williams and faces a favorable matchup against the Broncos, whose defense ranks poorly against running backs in fantasy points allowed and EPA per rush.
  • Wide receiver Josh Downs is expected to see increased targets with Alec Pierce injured and faces the Texans, who have given up the most fantasy points to wide receivers and rank fifth in EPA per target.
  • Jets receiver Adonai Mitchell, who led his team with 12 targets in Week 3, has a promising matchup against the Lions, who have allowed the most points to opposing wide receivers, with a projected high-scoring game.
  • Tight end Oronde Gadsden II has emerged as a key fantasy option due to injuries on the Chargers and faces a Bills defense ranked in the top 10 for points allowed to tight ends, with a high projected game total of 51 points.
