How will we remember Week 3? The week a hero was born? The week your season fell apart?

Let’s be honest, it depends which Giant you had in your lineup. But the numbers say that a lot more of you had Saquon Barkley in your lineup than Daniel Jones. (Duh.) Well, Jones will be in more lineups come Week 4.

Saquon is out for a while now, and either you or one of your lucky friends (so you thought) who landed a top-four draft pick is now scrounging to replace him. Hang in there. We’ll get through this. In Adam Ronis’s Week 4 Waiver Wire column, he lists new Giants starter Wayne Gallman as one running back option available just about everywhere. He also lists eight other running backs owned in under 40% of leagues on Yahoo!, ESPN or CBS. So check it out!

• Adam Ronis’s Waiver Wire is a crucial read, even if you don’t have Saquon Barkley. Go get Will Dissly, Phillip Dorsett and Diontae Johnson on your roster.
• Frankie Taddeo’s Week 4 Droppables has players he doesn’t feel bad about cutting ties with. Yes, the 49ers are 3-0. But that doesn’t mean Jimmy G is worth rostering right now.
• Bill Enright’s Week 4 Injury Report takes a look at all the injuries around the league and how they affect the fantasy world.
• And Dr. Roto’s Week 3 Superlatives. Mike Evans, Jordan Akins and other players win awards for the best and worst fantasy performances.
