Week 3 – James Jones at New England Patriots
Given their 0-2 record and substandard personnel, it is hard to praise the Raiders for much of anything. But their decision to sign James Jones has paid dividends. Last Sunday, Jones caught nine passes for 112 yards and a touchdown. He also hauled in a touchdown pass on opening day. The small amount of fantasy owners who have gambled on James have to be happy.
Nevertheless, if you start Jones this weekend, that smile will turn into a frown. New England picked off four passes in last week’s win over Minnesota and Jones could be spending some time on Revis Island. You need to look for other WR3 candidates.
