Draft note

by John Paulsen

Like Trey Lance, Fields is going off the board ahead of obvious Week 1 starters like Tua Tagovailoa, Kirk Cousins and Baker Mayfield, yet the Bears continue to say that Andy Dalton is the starter. My research shows that highly-drafted rookies typically start by Week 3 or Week 4, so that’s the expectation here. According to my rookie quarterback model, Fields should rush for 22 to 27 yards per game, so he has the rushing floor that is so valuable in today’s fantasy landscape. The Bears have a pretty good receiving corps, including a bona fide WR1, Allen Robinson, and up-and-coming WR2, Darnell Mooney, and a tight end (Cole Kmet) who may break out.

Bears say all three QBs under consideration for Week 4

Adam Schefter on Twitter

yesterday · 1:51 PM EDT

Bears’ HC Matt Nagy told reporters today that all three QBs - Justin Fields, Nick Foles and Andy Dalton - are under consideration to start in Week 4 against the Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

Fields was a big disappointment in Week 3 and struggled to really get any kind of offense going. It's quite possible if Dalton is healthy the team will go back to him, as that's what they've said all along. Some who follow the team felt Fields just wasn't ready to start in the NFL. For those in deeper leagues or multi-QB leagues, it's a situation to monitor.

CHI QB Justin Fields - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Cleveland Browns

Justin Fields finally gets his start at quarterback, although it's only temporary as Andy Dalton deals with an injury. Fields saw some playing time last week (42 of 65 snaps) and frankly looked awful. He completed 6-of-13 passes for 60 yards with no touchdowns and an interception. A positive takeaway, however, is Fields finished with 10 rushing attempts for 31 yards. 10 carries out of 42 snaps is pretty solid, and his rushing stats will provide a solid floor to make up for any miscues as a passer. Fields gets a favorable matchup in his first start, facing a Browns defense that allowed the third-most fantasy points to QBs in 2020. Fields will be a solid streaming option this week as a mid-range QB.
