Week 4 Wide Receivers - Rankings & Matchups Analysis

I'm highest on DeAndre Hopkins this week, and I'm totally alright with it. The Titans have the 29th-ranked pass defense this year, and Hopkins has seen his typical high target percentage after a strange opening game. Tons and tons of upside here, and I am beyond confident that Nuk finds the end zone.

Know who sucks at defending the pass? The Falcons suck at defending the pass. Cam Newton should have no problem slinging it all over the yard, and he's going to be locking on to Kelvin Benjamin a ton. last week's zero-catch performance is a distinct outlier--buy Benjamin all day.

Russell Wilson is not at 100% and hasn't been running much this year, and in Week 4 Seattle has to visit the Jets and their top-flight run defense. If the 'Hawks are going to win, they're going to throw. Doug Baldwin and Russ are clicking on all levels, and I love Baldwin this week. I might honestly be a little low right now.

When the ranks were posted, Eric Decker was still going to play. With him now out, Quincy Enunwa rises in any format as the de facto number two option behind Brandon Marshall. Love him for DFS, and I have him as a high-end WR3 even against the Seahawks vaunted secondary.

This is the week for Jamison Crowder. He has seen at least seven targets in all three games this season, and if he dominates the Browns this week I'll be a believer. With that kind of usage you have to view him as a flex, but I'll have him higher next week if he can deliver once again.

So Adam Humphries has 12 targets through three games. At the moment, he's surpassed Vincent Jackson on the metaphorical depth chart (if not the literal one) and he should be added if you need some depth in 12-team leagues (or larger). You're not starting him this week against the Broncos, but he could be very usable in the near future.

With both Sammy Watkins and Greg Salas out this week, Robert Woods makes an intriguing flex option in Week 4. The Bills are going to have to control the clock and keep the ball on the ground if they want to stand any chance against the Fighting Bill Belichicks, but when Tyrod Taylor does throw he's going to be looking for his favorite possession receiver. If you're dealing with injuries, Woods could be your plug-and-play flex.
