Week 3 Fantasy Start Sit: Olave, Irving, Warren, Montgomery
Week 3 start sit: SIT Chris Olave, Bucky Irving & Jaylen Warren. MUST START Montgomery, Geno & Freiermuth. We cover this every week inside Sellout Crowds.
Week 3 of the fantasy football season is here, and one wrong lineup click can melt your roster. On this episode of Fantasy Forecast, Grimeberg and Biggs walk the injury chaos, shutdown corners, committee backfields, and the exact sits and starts you need before lock.
We cover this every week inside Sellout Crowds — weekly start/sit boards, matchup notes, and community questions that get priority on the show.
Fantasy Footballers and Flock Fantasy will hammer the obvious WR1s. This episode is built for the tough calls: fading Chris Olave against a hot Raiders secondary after a monster two-week start, sitting Bucky Irving into Minnesota’s stuff-rate defense, and staying off Jaylen Warren while Pittsburgh’s offense is still stuck and Cincinnati is choking the run. Then we flip it: Geno Smith as a high-upside streamer at Detroit, Pat Freiermuth as the safety-valve tight end, and feeding David Montgomery into Indianapolis.
Defensive trends matter this week. Minnesota’s front is the fade spot for Bucs rushers. The Bengals’ run defense is why Warren is a sit even if Rico Dowdle is limited. Washington’s backfield is a committee trap against Seattle. Omarion Hampton’s fumble issues travel to Buffalo. Baker Mayfield’s ball-security problems stay in the fade column versus Minnesota.
