Injuries were the star of the NFL in week 3, with loads of teams getting handbagged and some serious ouchies that have taken some players out of the season. If there was a way to bet on ACL Injuries, you could make some serious cash…all while being a sick mofo.
When you’re looking at who to target for Week 4 it’s always good to look at who the worst teams are, and who they are playing. Chances are that team is going to give up a bucket load of points.
You should also look at pairing a good QB with a WR, as those combinations are going to increase your point value.
Let’s take a look at some of the key players to target in week 4.
QB
Russell Wilson $7800
The best QB in the league is playing one of the worst teams in the league, which smells plenty of points to go around. RW has as many TDs as all the QBs in the NFC East, which gives you an idea of how good he is. $7800 isn’t that bad considering he got 5 TDs last week. Miami will struggle to contain him, and the only downside is they might rest Wilson if they go up by 40 points.
Nick Foles $5700
Big Dick Nick might be facing one of the top D’s in the league, but this is Foles dang it. Yes, the Colts looked great…against the Jets last week, but this is a whole different story. Foles has better pocket awareness that Trubisky, so he will look to hit some medium yardage passes to break up their zone. Good value at $5700.
RB
Joe Mixon $5800
Mixon has had a less than stellar start for the Bengals, no thanks to the porous O line. Luckily he is facing the Jaguars this week who are very weak against the run. Look for Burrow to establish Mixon as the secondary of the Jags might give him some trouble. Mixon should score at least 1 TD.
Myles Gaskin $5000
A Miami player against the Seahawks? Yep. The secondary of the Hawks will be focused on picking off Fitzmagic, which should open some opportunities for Gaskin who already has 152 yards this year. He’s a great value at $5000 as the Dolphins have no choice but to use him.
WR
DK Metcalf $6800
Metcalf has to be kicking himself after letting the ball get smacked out of his hands in the end zone last week.
DK is a huge, fast receiver who will give Miami plenty of problems on Sunday. The Dolphins will most likely smother Tyler Lockett, giving Metcalf plenty of opportunities.
Andy Isabella $4500
Who? That’s right, Andy had 2 TDs last week to increase his performance heading into week 4. Chances are Hopkins will be getting double coverage, which means this speedster will find himself open at many times.
He’s a good deal at $4500, and perfect if you’re trying to save some space.
TE
Jimmy Graham $3800
Is Jimmy back? It sure seems so, as both Foles and Trubisky were able to find the big man last week against the Falcons. He’s a veteran, so you know that Foles is going to find him on short yardage and redzone situations.
Darren Waller $5200
More on the pricey side, Waller will factor heavily as the Raiders figure out ways to beat the Bills. He’s a big dude with big hands, let’s just hope he can stay healthy.
DEF
LA Rams $3900
The Rams are playing the Giants, which is all you need to really know. Aaron Donald will make a mess out of poor Daniel Jones, and it’s likely that Jones will have another no good, truly bad day.
