Stacy highlights six fantasy players to consider for NFL Week 3
Summary

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.
