FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 4 - Daily Fantasy Football

Dennis Clausen highlights the top FanDuel NFL DFS lineup picks for Week 4 of the 2022 season, and some value sleepers for your daily fantasy football rosters.

Week 3 is in the books, and things in the National Football League are crazier than ever. Need proof? The Dolphins took down the Bills in an AFC East showdown. The 2021-22 AFC Champion Cincinnati Bengals were 0-2 heading into the game versus the Jets, while the Jaguars, now sitting on a 2-1 record, surprisingly own the No. 1 spot in the AFC South.

Even wilder, Jonathan Taylor, Christian McCaffrey, Joe Mixon, Dalvin Cook, Alvin Kamara, and Derrick Henry, most of the top-ranked running backs heading into the year, have struggled. Fortunately, the Saints and Vikings are playing early on Sunday in London, so those partaking in the “Main Slate” won't have to worry about being disappointed by Kamara or Cook, assuming they play.

In this article, I will be providing you with my Week 4 daily fantasy football lineup picks for FanDuel. These lineups can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel. Be sure to also check out our weekly DraftKings DFS lineup picks and lots of other great NFL DFS articles and NFL DFS tools to help you win big! Also, feel free to give me a follow on Twitter @DennisMClausen. Let's get started!

FanDuel Quarterbacks - Week 4 DFS Lineup Picks

Josh Allen - @ BAL ($8,900)

Buffalo lost its first game of the year. However, DFS managers shouldn't blame Allen, who continues to get it done. The signal-caller has thrown for league-leading 1,014 yards while adding 10 touchdowns. Allen, who had issues with accuracy early in his career, has completed just over 71% of his throws.

The Ravens are certainly an offensive-minded team. Yet, things could be better defensively. Joe Flacco tossed for over 300 yards against Baltimore in Week 1, while Tua Tagovailoa infamously threw for 469 yards and six touchdowns in Week 2. Hell, even Mac Jones had over 300 yards passing against them in Week 3, so it's easy to assume Allen is capable of doing more damage on Sunday.

Lamar Jackson - vs. BUF (8,800)

No more messing around, as guys like Kirk Cousins and Derek Carr won't receive a mention here. Instead, we are turning our attention to Jackson, an early favorite to win the Most Valuable Player award. The dude has been out of his mind and doing it all for the birds. His completion percentage continues to improve, and even better, he has at least 100 rushing yards in each of his previous two games.

To cap things off, Jackson is responsible for 12 total touchdowns for Baltimore this season. Normally, it's not recommended to roster any quarterback going against a formidable Bills' defense. At the same time, the 25-year-old has been on a roll, and until he slows down, he should be in every lineup moving ahead. Buffalo is also dealing with injuries on the defensive side of the ball, which only adds to Jackson's appeal as a viable DFS option.

FanDuel Running Backs - Week 4 DFS Lineup Picks

Austin Ekeler - @ HOU ($8,400)

Where has Ekeler been all year? It's been three weeks, and he only has 80 yards on the ground. He also hasn't found the end zone. To his credit, the veteran has remained semi-relevant due to his accolades on the receiving end, pulling in 21 of his 22 targets for 139 yards.

The good news is that there may be sunny days up ahead for Ekeler, as the Chargers will travel to meet the Texans in Week 4. Houston has allowed over 200 rushing yards per game this season, the worst mark in the league. With L.A. looking to bounce back from a miserable loss to Jacksonville, Ekeler should be fired up and ready to go.

Khalil Herbert - @ NYG ($7,200)

David Montgomery sustained multiple injuries against the Texans, putting his availability in question in Week 4. The 25-year-old was already in danger of losing the No. 1 place on the depth chart. However, the process may have started earlier in the wake of his latest ailment.

Herbert has already received a great deal of praise from the Bear's coaching staff. He continues to give them plenty to rave about, as he's coming off a fantastic performance in Week 3, where he ran for a career-high 157 yards off 20 carries while averaging 7.9 yards per carry. Oh yeah, he also scored two touchdowns. There's a chance Montgomery will be available on Sunday. Still, Herbert should continue to get touches as well as targets on the receiving end.

Also Consider

Nick Chubb - @ ATL ($9,200)

The National Football League's top fantasy running back, Chubb, has been locked in. He has a fantastic outlook up ahead versus the Falcons, a team that has allowed 27 points per game this season.

Jonathan Taylor - vs. TEN (8,700)

Taylor has been a shell of his former self since Week 1. While most may have lost confidence in him, Vegas hasn't, which is enough reason for anyone to give him another chance in Week 4.

Jamaal Williams - vs. SEA ($7,400)

D'Andre Swift isn't expected to suit up on Sunday due to a shoulder ailment, meaning Williams will be the No. 1 man out of the backfield. He had nearly 24 fantasy points during the divisional meeting with Minnesota, and he also has four touchdowns on the year. Dan Campbell loves him, and you should love him too.

Devin Singletary - @ BAL ($6,200)

Singletary caught nine of his 11 targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in the loss to Miami in Week 3. Gabe Davis may not play against the Ravens, so if that's the case, there will be some targets up for grabs.

FanDuel Wide Receivers - Week 4 DFS Lineup Picks

Stefon Diggs - @ BAL ($8,700)

Diggs is currently the more productive fantasy wideout. He caught eight of his nine targets for 122 yards and a touchdown during the season-opener against the Rams. He followed that up with a 12-catch, 148-yard, three-touchdown performance during the Monday Night Football win over Tennessee.

Diggs fizzled a bit in Week 3 against Miami. Yet, he still was targeted 11 times, and had it not been for the brutal South Florida heat, his day may have been better. It's expected to be in the 70s in Baltimore on Sunday, so the temperature won't be an issue. With that said, the weather isn't the only thing that makes Diggs an attractive DFS candidate, but also the horrendous Ravens' secondary, a unit that has allowed the most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season.

Davante Adams - vs. DEN ($7,900)

Adams exploded in his first game as a Raider, accumulating 10 catches for 141 yards and a touchdown. He was also targeted 17 times in his debut, one fewer than the rest of his teammates combined. On the other hand, the last few games haven't been kind, as the veteran has brought in only seven of his 17 targets for 48 yards.

Although Adams has found the end zone in each of his games, he still hasn't delivered for the fantasy managers. Then again, this is arguably the best wideout in the league we are referring to, so it shouldn't take long for him to return to form. That may happen in Week 4 against his former Packers' offensive coordinator, Nathaniel Hackett. While the matchup isn't the best, Adams' rostering cost is just too good to pass up.

Also Consider

CeeDee Lamb - vs. WAS ($6,800)

Lamb appears to have a good thing going with Cooper Rush. He's coming off a strong showing against the Giants on Monday night, where he had eight receptions for 87 yards and a score. The Commanders haven't been effective against opposing fantasy wideouts this season, so give Lamb some love, especially for only $6,800.

Isaiah McKenzie - @ BAL ($5,900)

As previously mentioned, Gabe Davis isn't trending in the right direction toward being available on Sunday. If he doesn't play, McKenzie could benefit tremendously in a game that is expected to be a shootout.

Romeo Doubs - vs. NE ($5,900)

Aaron Rodgers is looking for a dependable primary wideout. While he hasn't found one, Doubs submitted his resume for the job. He caught all eight of his targets for 73 yards and a touchdown against the Buccaneers, so it's possible Rodgers will keep showing him some love.

FanDuel Tight Ends - Week 4 DFS Lineup Picks

Mark Andrews - vs. BUF ($8,400)

Fantasy managers have had issues navigating their way around the tight end position all season. Let's face it, there aren't many reliable options, so it's a crapshoot when deciding who to start from week to week.

However, for those who aren't looking to roll the dice, Andrews has been as dependable as it can get. He has averaged 23 fantasy points over the last two games. The 27-year-old also currently leads all others at the position in catches (22), targets (31), receiving yards (245), and touchdowns. Andrews is easily Lamar Jackson's favorite target and has a good chance to keep things moving against a hobbled Bills' defense.

Also Consider

Zach Ertz - @ CAR ($5,500)

Ertz has been targeted 25 times through the first three weeks, with 10 of those looks taking place inside the red zone. He's not a lock to produce, but he has more upside than others.
