Tez Johnson - Leading receiver again Week 3 Johnson caught seven of nine targets for 110 yards during Saturday's 49-14 victory against Oregon State.

Impact Johnson bounced back after catching his only three targets for negative-one net yards last week versus Boise State. The senior wideout logged his first 100-yard receiving performance in what was also a resurgent outing for the Ducks offense, which struggled with consistency in Weeks 1 and 2. Johnson production hasn't seen quite the same production as his breakout campaign last season when he caught 86 passes for 1,182 yards and 10 touchdowns. But, he's still clearly the top target in this offense, as No. 2 wideout Evan Stewart has totaled 16 targets compared to 25 for Johnson through the first three games of the season. Expect Johnson to remain the clear-cut WR1 when Oregon next plays on the road versus UCLA on Sept. 28.

Traeshon Holden - Scores again Week 3 Holden caught all three targets for 40 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 49-14 victory against Oregon State.

Impact Holden logged his second touchdown reception of the season with a 20-yard catch in the back of the end zone during the second quarter. The 6-foot-3 senior has been productive as the Ducks' third wide receiver behind Tez Johnson and Evan Stewart. Holden's target share also has not been that far behind Stewart's so far this season, as they've logged 12 and 16 targets, respectively. It will be worth monitoring if either player's role is affected if/when Gary Bryant returns to the field after missing the first two weeks with an undisclosed injury. Oregon will have a bye week before heading on the road versus UCLA on Saturday, Sept. 28.

Jordan James - Cruises for two scores Saturday James totaled 12 rushes for 86 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in both of his targets for zero yards during Saturday's 49-14 victory against Oregon State.

Impact James found more room to run after back-to-back unsteady performances from Oregon's offensive line and rushing game in Weeks 1 and 2. The 210-pound junior also got the ball on both of Oregon's touchdowns in the low red zone, including a four-yard carry on the opening drive and a one-yard plunge late in the third quarter. James was one of the silver linings when the Ducks' rushing offense struggled early, and he's now averaged 6.4 yards per carry on 44 opportunities this season. No.2 running back Noah Whittington remained involved with seven carries for 64 yards versus the Beavers. Yet, James' production and workload through the first three weeks should leave fantasy owners optimistic for his production if the Ducks can continue to roll moving forward. He should have a good chance to wrack up the rushing yards when Oregon next plays Saturday, Sept. 28 versus a UCLA squad that just lost 42-13 to Indiana.

Dante Moore - Appears late in blowout win Moore went 3-for-3 passing for 15 yards during Saturday's 49-14 victory against Oregon State.

Impact Moore got in for two offensive series late in the fourth quarter. He first led a seven-play, 33-yard field-goal drive before lining up in the victory formation for the final two-play drive. The UCLA transfer was a highly sought after recruit coming out of high school, and he delivered very uneven results in nine games as a true freshman last year, completing 53.5 perecnt of 213 passing attempts for 11 touchdowns to nine interceptions. Moore should be in line to take over next year for the Ducks with current starter Dillon Gabriel now playing in his final season of collegiate eligibility.

Dillon Gabriel - Stars in resurgent offense Gabriel completed 20 of 24 passes for 291 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 49-14 win against Oregon State. He also had four rushes for 64 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Oregon's offense looked like last year's dominant unit for the first time with Gabriel under center. The Oklahoma transfer's two highlight plays came in the second quarter, including when he sprinted for a 54-yard touchdown on a speed option followed by a 20-yard touchdown pass to Traeshon Holden in the back of the end zone. Oregon's offense appeared to overcome the mistakes and struggles in the rushing game that held it back in the first two weeks of the season. Meanwhile, Gabriel also remained highly efficient, as he's now completed 84 percent of his 94 passing attempts through three contests. If this unit continues to make strides like this, then Gabriel should have no issues piloting what many picked to be one of the best offenses in college football during the preseason. The Ducks will have a bye week before going on the road Sept. 28 to face what has been a dismal UCLA team so far this season.

Gary Bryant Jr. - Not playing Saturday Bryant (undisclosed) is not playing Saturday against Oregon State, James Crepea of The Oregonian reports.

Impact It'll be the third straight game Bryant's missed to start the season after recording 442 yards and four touchdowns on 30 receptions last season. Traeshon Holden should continue to serve as Oregon's number-three receiver behind Tez Johnson and Evan Stewart while Bryant is sidelined. He'll have a bye week to get healthy before the Ducks face UCLA.
