FanDuel Quarterback - Week 4 DFS Picks

Philip Rivers (vs NO, $8,500)

Rivers has struggled in a couple games this season, which may cause people to avoid him at his price. He gets an elite matchup against the Saints, though, as they have the 25th worst defense in the NFL against the pass. This game should quickly become an offensive showcase, but it should also stay close throughout. The Chargers are -4 point favorites in a game set at 52 points, which is the highest total of the slate. Even though Rivers has struggled a couple times this season, he can be used in all leagues this week.

 

FanDuel Running Backs - Week 4 DFS Picks

DeMarco Murray (at HOU, $7,300) 

Murray is a sneaky option. He's a big part of the Titans offense, in both the running and passing game. He is averaging over five receptions per game, and he's the Titans best red zone option. This looks like a tough matchup on paper, but that isn't the case. The Texans do have the fifth best overall defense in the NFL, but they are ranked 26th against the run. The Titans aren't a team that gives up on running the ball early in games, and Murray is surprisingly cheap for his production this season.

Jordan Howard (vs DET, $5,600) 

Howard will likely be a chalk play this week, but he's a great option for cash games. He's cheap enough to be used in tournaments, as well. He will be taking the majority of the carries for the Bears with Jeremy Langford out for the next few weeks. Howard was also used quite a bit in the Bears passing attack last week, although I do believe he will lose most of those opportunities to Ka'Deem Carey if he is able to suit up this week. Howard displayed great upside in limited action last week, and he's a safe player for his low price tag.

 

FanDuel Wide Receivers - Week 4 DFS Picks

Marvin Jones Jr. (at CHI, $7,600) 

Jones is another player that will likely be chalk this week, but he isn't a player worth avoiding. His price tag still isn't all that high, even though he's coming off an elite game against the Packers. In that game, he saw less targets than both weeks one and two, but it was his best performance of the young season. Jones has a fairly high floor, but his upside is essentially as high as anyone's, and he comes at a bit of a discount compared to other elite options. Jones will continue to see a ton of targets, and he can safely be used in all leagues.

Cole Beasley (at SF, $5,200) 

Beasley has been one of Prescott's favorite targets early in the season. He may receive a few more targets this week, as Dez Bryant is currently doubtful to play this week. The Cowboys get a great matchup against the 49ers, who have been playing at a fast pace this week. Beasley isn't a huge touchdown threat, but he almost scored last week, and he will be catching the ball early and often. He's still fairly cheap, and he's a safe option with solid upside.

 

FanDuel Tight End - Week 4 DFS Picks

Zach Miller (vs DET, $5,000)

Miller's huge game on Sunday Night Football may cause his usage percentage to skyrocket, but he'll still make a great option for his price tag if Jay Cutler is ruled out. Cutler hasn't thrown to his tight end much this season, but his backup, Brian Hoyer, has utilized Miller quite a bit. If Hoyer is under center again, Miller will possess a decent floor with an elite ceiling, and he will make a player that can be used in all leagues. If Cutler is under center, Miller is likely a player to avoid.
