QB Notes: Russell Wilson is on tempo for 75 touchdowns. He has 24 incompletions and 14 scores. God bless the Miami Dolphins. … The Chiefs awakened within the second half of Week 2 and didn’t return to sleep towards the Ravens. That was a dismantling the likes of which you mainly by no means see on the prime stage of NFL competitors. Patrick Mahomes has eight scores over his previous three begins towards the Patriots’ nonetheless robust however opt-out weakened protection. No Patrick Chung for Travis Kelce, for example. … When you can imagine it, the No. 1 QB by common fantasy factors truly isn’t Mr. Wilson, however Mr. Joshua Patrick Allen. For the primary time in six 2020 halves, we noticed Allen’s draw back because the Payments frittered away a 28-Three lead towards the Rams. Even with these lulls combined in, Allen has grow to be plain in fantasy. The Raiders enter Week Four allowing the fifth fewest quarterback fantasy factors however will probably be lacking first-round CB Damon Arnette. … Kyler Murray has extra picks than passing scores however sits because the QB4 by common factors after discovering the tip zone as each a runner and thrower in every of his first three begins. The Panthers are as delicate of a matchup because the Lions have been in Week 3.



Lamar Jackson’s Week Three wasn’t simply unhealthy by his requirements, however anybody’s. His 97 passing yards have been the 56th fewest by a quarterback making an attempt not less than 28 passes for the reason that AFL/NFL merger in 1970. The “Washington Soccer Staff” isn’t as delicate of a touchdown as you would possibly assume — solely 4 groups are permitting fewer passing yards by three weeks — however appearing as almost two-touchdown favorites on the street, the Ravens will be capable of re-establish what they’re good at. … Contemporary off ripping up the Falcons and Seahawks, Dak Prescott — who’s on tempo for six,366 yards — will get a tougher-to-forecast matchup within the Browns. In contrast to shootout-prone Atlanta and Seattle, Cleveland will probably be seeking to play preserve away and restrict Prescott’s makes an attempt. The Cowboys are considerably modest 4.5-point house favorites. … Cam Newton enters Week Four because the QB7 by common factors even after being held in test by the Raiders. The Chiefs are contemporary off eliminating fellow dual-threat Lamar Jackson, however L-Jax did handle 83 yards on the bottom. Invoice Belichick will undoubtedly take a number of classes away from the movie, too.



Even when Aaron Rodgers doesn’t get Davante Adams (hamstring) again for Week 4, he’s locked into the highest eight vs. a Falcons “protection” allowing 5 extra weekly QB fantasy factors than another group. … Deshaun Watson lastly will get a break within the motion after his comically-difficult season-opening slate of KC, BAL, PIT. The Vikings are permitting 293 passing yards per sport and eight.5 yards per try. No group has possessed the ball much less. If Watson can’t get it going right here, it is going to be purple alert time for the Texans’ offense. … Lacking Julio Jones, Matt Ryan’s Week Three fantasy manufacturing additionally went MIA. The Packers aren’t doing an incredible job disrupting enemy effectivity, however they’re curbing quantity by possessing the ball on the league’s highest price (35:54) by the season’s first three video games. With Russell Gage (concussion) now banged up, too, Ryan’s supporting forged will resolve his ultimate rating. … We all know the Lions’ protection isn’t good. What in regards to the Saints’? A fearsome 2019 unit has been rocked in back-to-back weeks by Aaron Rodgers and … Derek Carr? Matthew Stafford has lit the lamp solely 5 occasions in three video games however instantly spiked his effectivity and explosiveness following Kenny Golladay’s return.



As for Stafford’s opponent, Drew Brees, it hasn’t been spectacular, however his station-to-station sport can discover a option to QB1 numbers vs. Matt Patricia’s protection. … Wanting like a extra secure possibility than he was in 2019, Jared Goff’s essential Week Four concern is that the Rams’ working sport too simply cooks the pathetic Giants’ protection. … For the reason that Bengals can’t block or run, they go … lots. Joe Burrow’s 141 makes an attempt are second solely to Dak Prescott. He’s paying a vicious worth, taking a league-high 14 sacks, however it would possibly lastly all come collectively in Week 4. The Jaguars, who’re allowing the fifth most quarterback fantasy factors, are second-to-last in sacks (three). … The Seahawks are silver plattering 431 passing yards per sport. Inexcusable, pathetic and … ripe for some FitzMagic. With the Dolphins having zero prayer of slowing the Seahawks, Ryan Fitzpatrick’s streamer case is so simple as it will get. … Every week has been a bit extra prefer it for Tom Brady, although Chris Godwin’s (hamstring) seemingly absence towards a troublesome however injury-battered Chargers Protection lowers each Brady’s flooring and ceiling.



Baker Mayfield ought to be capable of attain his two-touchdown flooring/ceiling combo in a sport that most likely can’t assist however be a shootout. The over/below at present sits at a voluminous 56. … Gardner Minshew shanked a golden Week Three streamer spot however will get a do-over in a Bengals Protection whose stable passing numbers are obscured by different groups’ capacity to run throughout them. The Jags don’t have that stage of dashing assault. … At the least proper now, the injury-destroyed 49ers don’t symbolize a stay-away matchup for opposing QBs, however from his play to his supporting forged’s well being, there’s nothing good to say about Carson Wentz in the mean time. … They received Kirk Cousins a second weapon. The issue for his Week Four QB2 case is how a lot dashing manufacturing the Texans hemorrhage. … Talking of weapons, Philip Rivers is all the way down to one in all them amongst his unique top-three wideouts, and T.Y. Hilton isn’t even taking part in nicely. … Nick Foles and Nick Mullens flashed some Week Three life, simply not sufficient to earn streamability in robust matchups. … Daniel Jones’ atrocious play has eliminated him from streamer consideration in the interim.

Week Four Operating Backs





RB Notes: Alvin Kamara, a working again, is fifth within the league in receiving at 285. Michael Thomas (ankle) seems on observe to return towards the Lions, however Matt Patricia’s protection is coughing up 172 dashing yards per sport even after holding the Cardinals in test. Kamara’s short-area receiving prowess is extra necessary than ever with Drew Brees’ arm energy within the gutter. … Dalvin Prepare dinner will probably be seeking to construct off his 181-yard explosion towards the Titans vs. a Texans Protection permitting 188 dashing yards per sport. 1+1=2. … Mr. Regression Aaron Jones has 5 touchdowns in three video games. Now he will get a Falcons Protection that has already permitted 5 floor scores. Solely 5 groups have coughed up extra working again receptions. … The dashing effectivity hasn’t been there for Ezekiel Elliott, however the touchdowns have been. He additionally has 15 receptions because the Cowboys get sucked into one shootout after one other. With a 56 over/below vs. the Browns, Vegas is anticipating extra Cowboys pedal to the steel. … Spectacular, spectacular stuff from Miles Sanders, who has totaled 238 yards from scrimmage on 45 touches over the previous two weeks even because the Eagles have struggled to run block or full passes. The 49ers are coughing up the league’s fewest RB fantasy factors, however it’s deceptive after dates with the Jets and Giants’ “backfields.”



The doomsday Week Three Jonathan Taylor state of affairs got here to fruition, as the sport merely wasn’t aggressive sufficient for the Colts to take tread off their rookie’s tires. The Bears are a more durable protection, however enter Week Four permitting over 5 yards per carry. Particularly with the Colts’ receiver corps in harm shambles, Taylor received’t get the posh of a second half nap. … This might sound excessive for Nick Chubb in every week the place the Browns are 4.5-point street ‘canine in a sport with a 56 over/below. (Learn: Comeback mode.) Principally, I’ve put Week 1 out of my thoughts and centered on the two-back strategy the Browns executed to perfection in Weeks 2 and three. I don’t assume this sport will get out of hand sufficient for it to grow to be a Kareem Hunt-only affair within the second half. … Averaging 27 touches, Josh Jacobs has a troublesome draw within the Payments. As is the case with Chubb and the Browns, we all know Jon Gruden isn’t going to vary up his strategy at the same time as a three-point house underdog. … Bear in mind when Austin Ekeler wasn’t going to catch any extra passes? A cautious rookie quarterback and adverse sport script modified that in a rush. Each will stay in spades for Week Four vs. the Bucs.



Clyde Edwards-Helaire is breaking tackles however struggling within the purple zone. He’s 0-for-6 on carries contained in the 5, and has eight carries for -1 yards contained in the 10. Held down on the bottom normally vs. the Ravens, CEH made up for it with massive performs within the passing sport. Regardless of shaky early returns, all of the RB1 elements stay and are cooking. … Kenyan Drake had a Week Three smash spot within the Lions and didn’t convert it. He now has one other within the Panthers. Missing for giant runs — his season lengthy is 16 — and never catching any passes, Drake will start to tumble down the RB2 ranks if he doesn’t do what he’s presupposed to vs. Carolina. … Darrell Henderson has cleared 120 yards from scrimmage back-to-back weeks, out-touching Malcolm Brown 21-7 in Buffalo. Henderson has appeared harmful going downhill. He would possibly slowly be turning this three-man committee right into a 1A/1B backfield the place he owns characteristic standing. Cam Akers (ribs) stays week to week.



With Zack Moss (toe) sidelined, Devin Singletary dealt with 89 p.c of the Payments’ Week Three snaps. Moss has resumed practising, however Singletary has spent the primary three weeks placing the Payments’ teaching employees’s thoughts comfy about his capacity to be a 1A. No group is permitting extra working again fantasy factors than the Raiders, so this can be a conservative rank. … Unthreatened on early downs, James Robinson led the Jags in Week Three receiving. That may not occur once more all season, however Robinson maintains RB2 viability vs. the Bengals’ bottom-two run protection. … Joe Mixon’s season low for touches in 19. The issue is that the Bengals can’t block a soul. Nonetheless, as Joe Burrow continues to emerge and grow to be a headache for enemy defenses, Mixon’s dashing lanes will ultimately open up. … I can each preserve the religion in Nick Chubb and count on a “Kareem Hunt week” with shootout circumstances unsurprisingly seemingly in Dallas. … As anticipated, Mike Davis was a 1-for-1 alternative for Christian McCaffrey. Davis has 16 catches in two weeks. … Chris Carson (knee) is on the fallacious facet of questionable, leaving Carlos Hyde because the goal-line finisher for the league’s most explosive offense.



Myles Gaskin had a 27-touch outburst in Week 3. He’s caught not less than 4 passes every day out. These receptions will probably be wanted vs. the high-flying Seahawks. … Even when Phillip Lindsay (toe) returns, Melvin Gordon will bounce again to RB2 standing vs. the laughingstock Jets. … Tarik Cohen’s (ACL) loss ups David Montgomery’s targets flooring and ceiling. Will probably be fascinating to see if the Bears resolve Cordarrelle Patterson deserves greater than 5-7 weekly touches. … He didn’t do something with it, however Jerick McKinnon received far more Week Three early-down work than I used to be anticipating. His path to fantasy relevance nonetheless runs by way of go catching. … Antonio Gibson had a number of Week Three touches the place he appeared to cease and assume: The place do I run this soccer once more? It melted away because the proceedings wore on. It’s incremental, however Gibson is taking management of this backfield. … By means of three video games we aren’t any nearer to understanding the Ravens or Patriots’ backfields. Week Three Pats hero Rex Burkhead figures to get undercut by James White’s return. … I’m saying uncle on Leonard Fournette vs. Ronald Jones. Lengthy-term, I count on Fournette to emerge victorious. Brief time period, I’ve no rattling clue. Fournette is coping with an ankle difficulty.

Week Four Receivers





WR Notes: DeAndre Hopkins’ 32 catches lead the NFL by 5. For his subsequent 5 video games he will get the Panthers, Jets, Cowboys, Seahawks and Dolphins. He’s going to be laborious to catch. … Davante Adams (hamstring) is tentatively on observe to return towards the Falcons. With the sport happening Monday night, we’ll get our first harm report Thursday afternoon. … The identical is true for Adams’ Week Four opponent Julio Jones (hamstring). With Calvin Ridley clearing 100 yards even in Jones’ absence — i.e., being the middle of defensive consideration didn’t dent Ridley’s output — Ridley will probably be forward of Jones within the ranks for the primary time this season. … Tyreek Hill has but to have a 100-yard day. He’s made up for it by catching 5 passes and scoring each week. Hill’s Patriots résumé features a three-TD effort in 2018. … DK Metcalf has gone not less than 4/90/1 every day out. Averaging 24.Eight yards per reception, he’s going to search out the puncture spots on this Dolphins secondary. … Behind Metcalf within the consistency division is Amari Cooper, who has three 6/80s to his title. Week Four opponent Denzel Ward is combating by a groin ailment.



One results of the Seahawks’ cooking is a dramatically greater flooring for Tyler Lockett. Will probably be sufficiently big for the WR1 two of Lockett and Metcalf vs. the Dolphins. … Predictably, Nick Foles appeared to right away unlock Allen Robinson’s efficiency. A Colts Protection that’s been on straightforward road vs. opposing passing assaults may have its palms full. … The Raiders’ depth within the secondary has been thinned by the lack of rookie Damon Arnette. Tactician Stefon Diggs will probably be able to resume consuming after a Week Three slugfest with Jalen Ramsey. … Eased again in vs. the Cardinals, Kenny Golladay was a Week Four date with Marshon Lattimore, whose early struggles have performed an enormous function within the Saints’ defensive incompetence. Lattimore may get again on observe in a rush, however alpha Golladay is able to go after avoiding Week Three setbacks together with his hamstring. … Even with Chris Godwin (hamstring) sidelined, Mike Evans is greatest utilized as a low-end WR1 for a troublesome matchup with the Chargers. It may nonetheless be a number of extra weeks earlier than we lastly get a learn on how these receivers are going to supply below Tom Brady. … How efficient will Michael Thomas (ankle) be if he returns? I’m hedging as a mid-range WR1.



Keenan Allen is 20/228/1 on 29 targets since Justin Herbert changed Tyrod Taylor. Why precisely is coach Anthony Lynn nonetheless clinging to the notion Taylor would possibly reclaim beginning standing? Solely DeAndre Hopkins has commanded a bigger goal share. … If there’s Week Four concern for Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods, it’s that the Rams too simply run over the bombed-out Giants. The Rams are working as 13-point house favorites. Humiliating for GM Dave Gettleman. … Dwayne Haskins is actually soiling himself on the sector and Terry McLaurin remains to be seventh (269) in receiving. We should always get a face-melting eruption quickly sufficient, although Haskins’ final stand vs. the Ravens will make it robust. … Adam Thielen is 6/60 over his previous two video games, with rookie Justin Jefferson exploding for 7/175 within the latter matchup. We nonetheless love the seemingly goal share, I’m simply not satisfied Thielen is identical participant bodily he was in 2017-18. … D.J. Moore is definitely getting used farther down the sector than Robby Anderson. Go determine. Nothing can threaten Moore’s top-20 standing, however it’s protected to surprise if Anderson is already denting Moore’s every-week WR1 viability. There are quarterbacks who can assist two weekly top-18 choices. Teddy Bridgewater isn’t one in all them.



Odell Beckham admitted on 9/24 that he most likely received’t have an elite fantasy season after which backed up his phrases with a 4/59/Zero effort vs. Washington. The shootout-prone Cowboys improve Beckham’s ceiling, however his flooring is now not that of a WR1. … The Will Fuller rollercoaster is lastly stopping on a susceptible opponent. His flooring is decrease than your typical WR2, however the identical is true of his ceiling’s top. … After weeks of taking part in banged up, DeVante Parker has had 10 days to heal for Seahawks “protection” that *checks notes* has allowed 76 receptions for 1,136 yards and 5 touchdowns to broad receivers in three video games? Wut. That places early-season inconsistent Preston Williams within the WR3 combine, as nicely. … Julian Edelman has been a 2020 chameleon, serving completely different wants relying on the week. Headed to Kansas Metropolis, the Patriots are going to want one other Seahawks effort — learn 8/179 — out of their WR1. … Slot man Tyler Boyd is the closest factor the Bengals must a No. 1 receiver proper now. It simply isn’t occurring for A.J. Inexperienced, who’s 93rd in yards per route run (1.00) in response to Professional Soccer Focus.



It was near occurring for Marquise Brown in Week 3, who was 1-2 higher deep balls from Lamar Jackson away from an enormous evening. The Washington Soccer Staff is very susceptible on the again finish. … Michael Gallup lastly hit a giant play in Week Three to take the yardage lead on CeeDee Lamb. For his half, Lamb has drawn not less than six targets every day out. It’s uncommon, however the Cowboys’ offense can completely assist three top-30 wideouts. This week’s 56 over/below is the newest inexperienced mild. … The Colts didn’t want T.Y. Hilton the previous two weeks, and he actually didn’t present up. That ought to lastly change towards a Bears group that can not less than put up a struggle. As tempting as it’s to declare Hilton washed, he’s just some drops away from a a lot completely different notion. … Six of Allen Lazard’s seven greatest receiving performances, every larger than 45 yards, have come since final Week 13. He’s averaging 85 yards in 2020. Even when Davante Adams is again, Lazard has compelled his approach into WR4 consideration. … Golden Tate is cooked, however Darius Slayton’s Week Four Jalen Ramsey project retains him growth or bust within the WR4 vary. … That’s why you retain Mecole Hardman round. We all know in regards to the zero-point flooring. However he can flip matchups on solely 1-2 catches.





Week Four Tight Ends





TE Notes: Travis Kelce is without doubt one of the most constant gamers in fantasy soccer historical past. He’s on their own on the prime. … George Kittle (knee) appears tentatively on observe to return after his turf-related absence in Week 3. The Eagles allowed three Week 2 scores to Tyler Higbee. We nonetheless love Kittle, however it’s a disgrace/concern this would be the second-straight season he performs nearly all of the yr at lower than 100 p.c. … Opposing Kittle will probably be Zach Ertz, who as soon as once more finds himself as the one wholesome Eagles go catcher. Because the accidents mounted, Ertz’s Week Three utilization spiked accordingly. It was a disappointing three weeks, however ones simply put within the rear-view. … Talking of disappointing, Mark Andrews, who has 109 whole yards and dropped a landing towards the Chiefs. Washington’s entrance seven may create some complications for Lamar Jackson, however Andrews will nearly actually return to the land of 5/50.



We haven’t seen a ceiling sport from Hunter Henry, however he has quickly re-established his flooring after a quiet 2019 end. The Bucs are seam-tough, so don’t count on any miracles. … Frustratingly erased by Invoice Belichick, Darren Waller has one other daunting matchup within the Payments. With Matt Milano and Tremaine Edmunds again within the lineup final week, the Payments put the lockdown on Tyler Higbee. … Jared Prepare dinner (groin) is wanting on the fallacious facet of questionable for Sunday’s sport towards the Lions. … Now the closest factor the Broncos must a No. 1 receiver, Noah Fant was a Week Four TNF smash spot within the soon-to-be coachless Jets. … T.J. Hockenson is percolating. You’ll be able to nearly really feel the eruption coming. The Saints surrendered Week Three touchdowns to Marcedes Lewis and Robert Tonyan. … It’s been one blowup and two duds for Mike Gesicki. With the Dolphins heading into what’s going to most likely be their most pass-happy sport of the season, Gesicki will get the nod over fellow two-dud, one-blowup Tyler Higbee.



We all know what Tyler Higbee did — and what he can do going ahead — however he’s averaging below 4 targets. That’s not a TE1. TE11 would possibly really feel low when in actuality it’s charitable within the Rams’ spread-the-wealth offense. … In principle, the Giants’ ability corps accidents improve Evan Engram’s flooring and ceiling. In actuality, Daniel Jones is taking part in so poorly it scarcely issues. … As feared, it has not been a 1-for-1 Austin Hooper utility for Hayden Hurst. With Russell Gage (concussion) questionable for Monday’s potential shootout with the Packers, Hurst will get yet one more week of TE1 advantage of the doubt. … Sporting a working again’s yards per catch, Logan Thomas is wanting like all filler, no killer for nevertheless lengthy Dwayne Haskins stays below middle. … There are going to be some 1-2 catch weeks for Dalton Schultz, however he’s elevated sufficient by the offense he performs in to settle into weekly prime 14-18 standing. … We’d like extra routes, snaps, and many others. for Mo Alie-Cox. What we received have been massive performs in two video games the place the Colts barely even needed to go. There’s sufficient happening right here to maintain MAC hanging round.
