Tony Pollard - Week 3 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard has emerged as the lead runner in that backfield and should be started in all standard formats as an RB2.

Zack Moss - Week 3 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers should consider starting Zack Moss in Week 3 against the Commanders, especially as a lower-end RB2 option.

Ronnie Stanley At Practice On Thursday

Baltimore Ravens offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley (ankle) missed practice on Wednesday but was back on the field for Thursday's practice.

David Montgomery - Week 3 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers should confidently start David Montgomery in Week 3 against the Arizona Cardinals as an RB2 option.
