The Judge's Verdict:
football 2020 Week 3

October 3, 2020
CASE SUMMARY:
This week's write-up will be brief. The Judge is going to focus on Seatlle WR Tyler Lockett, this week's top WR with 32.5 points (1/2 PPR) on 9-for-100 receiving with 3 TDs. Lockett has been an elite WR but recently the emergence of freak-of-nature D.K. Metcalf has led to a question of who's the top target for Russell Wilson. Fortunately for Seattle fans and owners of all 3 players, Wilson has been playing so well that all of them are racking up huge stats as Seattle has won all 3 of its games so far this season. Jacksonville's rookie RB James Robinson scored twice and collected 129 total yards against Miami, and now his 3 NFL fantasy games have been 9, 19 and now 28 points. Last week was his first 100-yard rushing game, and this week he displayed his receiving ability, catching all 6 of his targets for 83 yards. The Judge would like to acknowledge a blast from the past: Chicago TE Jimmy Graham had his best fantasy week since 2016, scoring 21 points off of 2 TDs and 60 yards from 6 catches. In Week 2, five different TEs had 20+ point days, but this week Graham's 21 was 4.5 points better than 2nd place (Tyler Kroft of Buffalo). Not too surprisingly, however, no analyst had Graham any higher than 22nd among TEs, and most had him bunched up in the mid- to high-20s.

VERDICT ANALYSIS:
TheHuddle showed why they were last year's champions, after a slow start in the first two weeks. They were most bullish on both Lockett and Robinson this week. Especially in the case of Robinson, they forecasted a huge week, placing him inside their Top 10, which only Fantasy Sharks duplicated (at #10). Fulltime missed the mark this time around, they were the only site to place Robinson outside the Top 20, which means his owners may have missed out on a big day in favor of some other RB.
