Fantasy Football Week 3 Rankings: Expert Tiers for QBs, RBs, WRs, TEs, Kickers & Defenses

My initial fantasy football rankings for NFL Week 3 are here, but. as always, there could be a lot of movement between now and Sunday.

These projections will evolve during the week as I dive deeper into last week’s data, injury reports, and other news. Like every week, make sure to check my updated rankings and projections before you lock in your final lineup decisions.

To help you begin your start-sit decisions, I’ve outlined the first version of my Week 3 fantasy football rankings into tiers so you can better visualize the drop-off in expected production at each position. I’ve also included some relevant notes on key players at the bottom of each section.

Let’s dive into the initial version of my Week 3 fantasy football tiers below!
