NFL DFS: FanDuel Daily Fantasy Football Picks for Week 4 - Top Lineup Plays Include C.J. Stroud, Jayden Daniels, Travis Kelce, Rashee Rice

Top FanDuel daily fantasy football lineup picks for Week 4 DFS in 2024. Dennis' NFL DFS sleeper picks for building winning NFL DFS lineups on FanDuel in Week 4.

13 games make up FanDuel’s Main Slate on Sunday, with the day ending with a high-powered battle between the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens. That may be one of the very few competitive games on Sunday, especially since many of the teams around the National Football League have one win or fewer through the first three weeks.

In this article, I will be providing you with my Week 4 daily fantasy football lineup picks for FanDuel and the 2024 NFL season. 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!

Week 4 FanDuel Quarterbacks - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Jayden Daniels - at ARI ($8,200)

Daniels has played well beyond his years during his brief tenure in the National Football League. He began the season by posting 28.16 fantasy points in Week 1 versus the Buccaneers.

Although Daniels took a step backward in Week 2, he turned things around in the win over the Bengals on Monday night, accounting for three touchdowns (two passing, one rushing).

With the Cardinals struggling to slow down opposing fantasy quarterbacks this season, Daniels has plenty of things going for him entering Week 4.

C.J. Stroud – vs. JAC ($7,800)

Stroud and the Texans will host the winless Jaguars in an AFC South matchup. Typically, most would expect Houston to build a commanding lead, resulting in the Texans running down the clock.

Of course, that’s not good news for any fantasy quarterback. But Jacksonville has been known to keep things close (at times) in historical meetings with Houston, so Stroud may be throwing throughout the entire contest.

The signal-caller played well in his two meetings against the Jags last season, tossing four touchdowns and 584 yards combined while completing 69.7% of his attempts. Keep Stroud on the radar for Week 4.

Also Consider: Kyler Murray ($8,200), Trevor Lawrence ($6,900)

 

Week 4 FanDuel Running Backs - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Kyren Williams - at CHI ($8,100)

Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp won’t play in Sunday’s meeting with the Chicago Bears. As a result, Williams should remain the Rams’ top option on the offensive end.

The 24-year-old had a fantastic showing in the Week 3 victory over the 49ers, totaling 89 yards and two scores off 24 carries, adding two catches for 27 yards and a touchdown. While another three trips to the end zone may be a stretch, Williams should stay heavily involved for Los Angeles versus the Bears.

Cam Akers – vs. JAC ($6,100)

There’s a good chance Joe Mixon and Dameon Pierce will remain sidelined versus the Jaguars. Without them, Akers is expected to lead the way out of the backfield.

Akers only logged nine carries in the loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Fortunately, he still found the end zone, so he at least gave DFS managers a little something.

With that said, the score should be in Houston’s favor in Week 4 versus the Jags, resulting in more touches for Akers. He’s in a good spot to have a bounce-back outing on Sunday, but Mixon and Pierce must be ruled out before managers put him in the lineup.

Also Consider: Breece Hall ($8,000), James Conner ($7,500), Brian Robinson Jr. ($7,300)

Week 4 FanDuel Wide Receivers - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Rashee Rice - at LAC ($8,500)

Rice has had a monster 2024-25 campaign, catching 24 of his 29 targets for 288 yards and two touchdowns. With Travis Kelce having a tough time getting his hands on the ball through the first three weeks of the season, Patrick Mahomes will likely continue to look in Rice’s direction versus the Los Angeles Chargers.

Brandon Aiyuk – vs. NE ($7,600)

After an interesting offseason that involved a contract dispute, Aiyuk finally received his extension. Unfortunately, he hasn’t been productive through the Niners' first three contests, hauling in only 11 catches for 119 yards. Even worse, the 2020 No. 25 overall pick hasn’t found the end zone.

George Kittle and Deebo Samuel Sr. are potentially in line to miss Sunday’s game against the Patriots. If that happens, it may be Aiyuk’s day to finally break out, considering the New England defense will presumably be paying extra attention to Jauan Jennings, who had three touchdowns in Week 3.

Also Consider: Justin Jefferson ($9,400), Nico Collins ($7,700 – Questionable), DeVonta Smith ($7,400 – Questionable), Terry McLaurin ($6,500), Darnell Mooney ($5,700), Andrei Iosivas ($5,500), Noah Brown ($4,900)

 

Week 4 FanDuel Tight Ends - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Travis Kelce - at LAC ($7,100)

Kelce has had arguably the worst season of his career. The veteran has just eight catches in the Chiefs’ first three games of the year, and he has yet to find the end zone. Understandably, Kelce has been a topic of scrutiny. However, Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid have been quick to his defense.

Kelce could get more than a few opportunities to produce in an attempt to quiet down the off-the-field noise moving ahead. It’s also important to note that Kelce has 100 grabs for 1,223 yards and nine touchdowns in 18 career meetings versus the Chargers during his career.

Also Consider: Dallas Goedert ($7,500), Trey McBride ($6,800 – Questionable)
