Week 3 Fantasy Football Running Back Rankings - Sporting News

Are you frustrated with the running back position yet? Usually, the first two weeks of the season aren't too kind to the position, as injuries always make an impact. This year, Marlon Mack and Saquon Barkley have already been lost for the year, while Le'Veon Bell and Phillip Lindsay are set to miss at least a few more weeks. Throw in a potential ailments to Christian McCaffrey, Cam Akers, and Raheem Mostert, and potential sleepers/waiver wire pickups are figuring more prominently into our Week 3 fantasy RB rankings. 

Committees are also having a big effect on our rankings, especially with a few of them facing highly favorable matchups in Week 3. The Chargers RBs have a great matchup against a porous Panthers run defense. That will make Austin Ekeler a likely RB1 in standard and a sure-fire RB1 in PPR formats while Joshua Kelley looks like a legit RB2. Additionally, the Bears backs, David Montgomery and Tarik Cohen, should get a chance to do some damage against the Falcons defense, while the Ravens backfield trio of Mark Ingram, Gus Edwards, and JK Dobbins are all potentially in play because of how bad the Chiefs run defense is.

WEEK 3 PPR RANKINGS:
QuarterbackWide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker

On the flip side, you have a few committees that are either thoroughly confounding or facing tough matchups. The Bills committee of Zack Moss and Devin Singletary square off against the Rams, who haven't been particularly good against RBs but it's tough to tell which back is worth more. The Bucs backfield is similarly frustrating. It's led by two good runners and has a decent matchup against Denver, but will Leonard Fournette or Ronald Jones II get more touches? Your guess is as good as ours.

WEEK 3 STANDARD RANKINGS:
QuarterbackRunning back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker

The Dolphins (@ Jaguars) and 49ers (@ Giants) are also in good spots, but the Giants (vs. 49ers) and Rams (@ Bills) are in much more precarious positions. Consider all of their backs no more than flex plays (unless Mostert is active). 

Reminder: As always, we expect to make plenty of changes to these RB rankings throughout the week, so check back for updates.
