The unpredictability of fantasy football certainly raised its ugly head in Week 2 as unlikely quarterbacks such as Derrek Carr (3rd in fantasy points), Sam Darnold (4th), Daniel Jones (6th) and Geno Smith (7th) all turned in top-10 performances.

Are any of them worth starting again this week?

Fantasy football rankings for Week 3 are based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring used in most seasonal and daily fantasy football formats. One point is awarded for every 10 rushing and receiving yards and one point for every 20 passing yards. Six points are awarded for touchdowns scored, four points for passing TDs and one point for receptions.

Due largely to his rushing ability, the Bills' Josh Allen was fantasy's top quarterback in Week 1. But he threw for only 139 yards and had just two rushing attempts against the Dolphins in Week 2.
