Pigskin Panel: The biggest fantasy football questions of Week

Each week, theScore's DFS experts tackle the biggest questions of the week. Here are three of the most significant issues entering Week 3:

Which backup running back are you be most willing to target this week?

Josh Ghatak: With Arian Foster seemingly unlikely to play, former Miami starter Jay Ajayi stands out as a candidate to have a solid performance against a weak Cleveland team. While Ajayi will lose some touches to Kenyan Drake and Damien Williams, he is the most proven and most reliable option of that trio. Assuming Miami can lead throughout, Ajayi will see a fair workload.

Jason Wilson: While the Carolina Panthers run defense ought to strike fear into the hearts of RBs everywhere, they've been more middle of the road through two weeks. This, plus the severe injury to Vikings RB Adrian Peterson, makes Jerick McKinnon the man. He hasn't had many touches yet, but he averaged 5.2 yards per carry. Opportunity is knocking. Expect him to answer.

Andrew Potter: Seahawks RB Thomas Rawls has been outplayed by backup Christine Michael through two games, with the incumbent averaging just 1.3 Y/C. Michael could see 15 touches and a handful of passing targets against San Francisco's suspect run defense. The 49ers have already allowed 120.5 yards rushing per game - eighth-most in the league.

Matt Forte is one of the highest priced running backs in DFS. Would you still roster him against Kansas City?

Josh Ghatak: Absolutely. The Jets have attempted 66 rushes through their first two weeks, with Forte going for 52-196-3. But more important than his elite workload is the fact that he has the skill to put it to use in any matchup. While the Chiefs allowed 98.2 yards per game on the ground last season, they've surrendered 252 total rushing yards through the first two weeks.

Jason Wilson: You can't expect Forte to pull off the same results he enjoyed in Week 2. With the Chiefs having yet to play an offensive snap with the lead, however, the Jets may turn to the running game early and often if they get an early score. Volume alone should mitigate low averages, but there are better options at lower salaries.

Andrew Potter: Not a chance. The Chiefs have a strong defensive front that fell victim to game script in Week 1 against the Chargers and faced a top RB in Lamar Miller in Week 2. Does anyone really think Forte will average 15 carries per game, let alone 26? The man is at 3.8 yards per carry. Forecasting anything other than regression is irresponsible.

Can Stefon Diggs post three big games in a row?

Josh Ghatak: A matchup against Carolina should be slightly tougher than Tennessee or Green Bay. But without Adrian Peterson, Diggs is going to be the focal point of Minnesota's offense going forward. With that focus, Diggs will see enough targets to have big game play potential each and every week. If he can find the end zone against Carolina, expect another 100-1 stat line.

Jason Wilson: Stay away from Diggs this week. His salary is still manageable, but there is next to no chance that he continues his streak. Diggs is far and away the league leader in yards through two weeks, but his success is predicated on QB Sam Bradford pulling together two consecutive excellent performances. History dictates this is unlikely.

Andrew Potter: Without Peterson drawing the focus away from the passing game, Diggs will need to prove he's ready for a defense focused on shutting him down. The Panthers will likely double Diggs for much of the game and dare the Vikings to beat them with Adam Thielen and Jerick McKinnon. If Bradford tries to force 20 targets into double coverage, this will get ugly.

Are there any defenses that could stand out this week?

Josh Ghatak: Carolina would be my defense to roster against a decimated Minnesota squad. At this point, the Panthers simply have to slow down Diggs in order to stifle the entire Minnesota offense. With six turnovers already to their name, the Panthers are capable of combining a low opposition scoring total with a few turnovers.

Jason Wilson: Barring a Todd Gurley explosion - an admittedly possible outcome - the Tampa Bay Buccaneers should be a popular target against the otherwise limp Los Angeles Rams offense. Even if Gurley has a good game, the Bucs could terrorize QB Case Keenum into making stupid mistakes resulting in turnovers.

Andrew Potter: The Dolphins' defense isn't great, but they're cheap and have a fantastic matchup. The Browns will start rookie QB Cody Kessler in his first pro start and their two best WRs are either suspended or hurt. The o-line has allowed the fifth-most sacks in the league so far. Even if the Browns manage to score, the Fins have an easy opportunity for sacks and turnovers.
