Stacy Perez recommends six players to consider starting in fantasy lineups for NFL Week 3, including Bryce Young, Aaron Jones, Braelon Allen, Rashod Bateman, and Pat Freiermuth. Young leads as a stronger QB option against the Browns, while Jones's heavy usage offers value if healthy. Allen emerges as a flex option due to the Jets' favorable matchup against the Lions. Bateman could see increased targets if Zay Flowers doesn't play, particularly in a high-scoring game against Dallas. The recommendations are crucial as injuries have affected fantasy rosters across the league.
- •Bryce Young ranks second in NFL passing yards this season.
- •Aaron Jones handled 23 carries in Week 2, pending injury status.
- •Braelon Allen is a potential flex play against the Lions' defense.
- •Rashod Bateman excelled as WR1 after injuries limited teammates.
- •Pat Freiermuth remains a reliable tight end option despite fluctuating production.
