Fantasy Football Week 3 Rankings: WRs

I've seen bad weeks from elite receivers before, but I never thought I'd see a zero-catch game from Greg Jennings this season. Will it get better in Week 3? Well, it has to, doesn't it? Almost as surprising as seeing Jennings with no catches was seeing Mario Manningham with 10, especially considering the Giants' Steve Smith also had 10 catches. Are we dealing with the next Randy Moss and Wes Welker? You're right, that's too much hyperbole, even for me. Still, the highly-added Manningham is due for a huge bump up in the rankings, but how far will he climb?

1. Andre Johnson, HOU vs. JAC
2. Marques Colston, NO @ BUF

• This is the week to use Santana Moss, because if Jason Campbell can't get him the ball against Detroit, then there's no hope for this passing offense.

• Smith and Manningham appear in the top 20 because I see them each scoring early TDs, but I wouldn't expect much from either in the second half of the game. Tampa Bay is no Dallas.

• Mike Sims-Walker, one game removed from a 100-yard effort, is definitely usable as a WR3 this week. He has a shot at duplicating his Week 2 numbers.

• I'm not quite sold on the other waiver-wire sensation of this week, Johnny Knox. It's going to be hit-or-miss between him, Devin Hester and Earl Bennett most weeks, but I feel Bennett has the best rapport with his QB and can be the most consistent option.

• As always, come to our Sunday Tailgate chat for updates on who's out and who makes for great replacements. We're taking all your questions starting at 10:30 AM ET Sunday morning.
