There are always enough QBs to go around in fantasy, considering that it is one of the deepest positions. That means that if you need to find a streamer for a week – especially if you don’t trust Aaron Rodgers’ banged up knee or Carson Wentz in his first game back from injury – guys like Mitchell Trubisky (@ Cardinals), Alex Smith (vs. Packers), and Tyrod Taylor (vs. Jets) could be worth a shot in Week 3. Anytime you get a professional QB in a good matchup, they can go off, and it only takes a couple of TDs to make any passer a really strong play.

At this point, there are a couple of players to at least be a bit wary of. Marcus Mariota isn’t fully healthy, Blaine Gabbert played over him last week, and is entering a really tough matchup against one of the league’s best defenses. Alex Smith put up a dud against the Packers. And though Dak Prescott looked much better against the Giants last week, he still didn’t put up great fantasy numbers. While these guys could be starters in certain matchups, we’re just not yet ready to trust them in Week 3.
