Nick Mariano's rest-of-season fantasy football rankings for Week 3 in half-PPR leagues. Set winning lineups with our updated Week 3 fantasy football ranks for 2025.
It's been two weeks and your brain is trying to find patterns amongst the noise, so let's hash things out with an updated rest-of-season rankings sheet! Most of your focus will be on the current week, which is valid, but we must keep the bigger picture in sight. That's our goal with the Week 3 fantasy football half-PPR rankings for the rest of 2025 as of September 17.
Be sure to inspect where key players have moved, such as Rome Odunze, Ashton Jeanty, Tyler Warren, the Bengals, and more. It's still early enough where we can load benches with upside lotto tickets and not fret our bye-week depth concerns. You'll want to have many questions answered by the time those start hitting in Week 5.
Be sure to bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. In addition to these half-PPR rankings, read our fantasy football articles and analysis -- our NFL team discusses lineup sleepers, busts, NFL players to start and sit, waiver-wire pickups, and so much more.

Notable Fantasy Football Questions Going into Week 3
- Will Miami simply fold and implode on Thursday night at Buffalo?
- Can the Colts stay hot and tire out Tennessee's defense by the second half?
- Does Washington commit to Jacory Croskey-Merritt without Austin Ekeler and an injured Jayden Daniels?
- Can the Rams push Philadelphia enough to force a more voluminous aerial attack?
- How will Atlanta split RB touches against a toothless Panthers defensive front?
- Does one of Houston/Jacksonville emerge with confidence, or do they play down to each other's early disarray?
- If Cleveland continues their funnel-defense ways, can Matthew Golden finally break out?
- How will Jake Browning and Carson Wentz affect their respective offenses for our short-term prospects?
- Will the Chargers tag Najee Harris in as the 1A rusher?
- Do the Saints continue with their pass-happy ways?
- Can the Bears start finding ways to get Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland involved as they search for a spark?
- Do we get "DangeRuss Wilson" again, or will primetime force us to expect more bad than good?
- Are you prepared with enough fireworks for DET-BAL on MNF?
