Fantasy analysis for Week 3: Bateman and Coker matchup discussed

Rashod Bateman of the Baltimore Ravens and Jalen Coker of the Carolina Panthers are highlighted in Week 3 fantasy football discussions. Coker, currently ranked WR5 in PPR formats, has two touchdowns and 16 receptions for 204 yards heading into a matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Bateman, stepping up in Week 2 with seven receptions and one touchdown, faces the Dallas Cowboys, who have shown improved passing defense this season. Analysts suggest starting Coker over Bateman based on recent performance and target volume. The Ravens may rely heavily on Bateman if top receiver Zay Flowers remains limited.
