Week Three Start/Sit Non-Injured

Assume you already have a legitimate #2 RB or WR. In leagues with a Flex, you may be compelled to start any of the below thanks to match-ups, injuries and/or league depth.

Cleveland Browns RBs Jerome Harrison and James Davis: Sit. Can't see the clear #1 here. Nopr does it matter given each faces the Baltimore Ravens defense.

Indianapolis Colts RB Donald Brown: Sit. He is not a legit #2 yet, and the Arizona Cardinals rush defense has been very good so far.

Buffalo Bills WR Lee Evans: Start maybe. He has the chance to have the 4 catches, 100+ yards we have come to expect form Evans twice a year. The Saints/Bills should be a shootout.

Seattle Seahawks RBs Julius Jones and Justin Forsett: Sit. Who is the lead back? For a team as bad as the Seahawks, you want no part of a timeshare. Once the Bye Weeks begin though....

Washington Redskins WR Santana Moss: Start maybe. See Lee Evans. If you #2 WR was taken around the 2.12/3.01 turn, Moss is not an option at WR2.

Fantasy Football: A 4th RB Sleeper?

As far as Jamal Lewis and the Cleveland Browns are concerned, 30 is the new 20 - cleveland.com:

"...rookie James Davis, Lewis' understudy, has been one of the surprises of camp. Davis' young and eager legs have magnified Lewis' age. Lewis looks slow and tentative as he hits a hole, goes the refrain."

Perception is one thing. As pointed out in the article, head coach Eric Mangini had no problem feeding the 30+ year old Thomas Jones last season with the Jets.

Viewing my own rankings, I'd move Davis into the 3rd or 4th Bench spot to draft.
