Rome Odunze - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Fantasy football Week 4 rankings for RB, WR, TE, QB from a top-10 most accurate ranker in 2025 Dan Larocca. Read his fantasy rankings analysis and outlooks.

RotoBaller's Dan Larocca shares his Week 4 fantasy football lineup rankings for RB, WR, TE, and QB. Entering Week 4, Dan sits in the top 10 in the FantasyPros expert rankings accuracy contest. The following includes analysis that will hopefully help you make some tough decisions when it comes to sit/start.

Regular starting options are included to highlight that some of your must-start players have a good chance of supplying winning totals. Much of the analysis helps fantasy players make the tough decisions between two or more similarly valued players.

Dan's rankings are updated as news breaks until the full slate begins on Sunday. Following the positional advice below, you can consult the player rankings widget. The fantasy football lineup rankings analysis is based on half-PPR scoring rules. You can find Dan on X @dlarooccNFL.

37 Woody Marks HOU vs TEN
38 RJ Harvey DEN vs CIN
39 Bhayshul Tuten JAC @ SF
40 Tyler Allgeier ATL vs WAS

Omarion Hampton is a smash start this week against the Giants, who are giving up the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing RBs and rank dead last in rushing defense DVOA so far this season.

Jaylen Warren saw an extremely favorable 23 touches and 80% of snaps last week. If this volume continues, he will be a mid-range RB2 for the rest of the season.

Chiefs RBs are flex starts this week against a Baltimore defense giving up the most fantasy points to opposing running backs. While Pacheco is likely to continue to see the early down work, look for Hunt to get in the endzone.

While it could be enticing to keep rolling with David Montgomery after a boom week on MNF, he is a sit for me in Week 4 in a tough matchup against the Browns and their top-ranked rush defense by DVOA.

50 Stefon Diggs NE vs CAR

Zay Flowers has really stepped up and become the undisputed favorite target of Lamar Jackson's this season. His added contribution has made its mark - PFF has him ranked fifth in receiver grades among all eligible WRs. He is matchup-proof but has an opportunity this Sunday against a Chiefs team that could keep the game interesting throughout the fourth quarter.

Rome Odunze is in for another big week after an incredibly hot start to the season that has seen him tally 227 yards and four touchdowns already. His matchup against the Raiders presents a significant opportunity, with Las Vegas ranking third-worst against opposing fantasy WRs.

George Pickens has posted matching five catch, 68 yard, one touchdown games the last two weeks and could top those numbers this week against Green Bay without WR CeeDee Lamb.

Chris Olave is a high-end WR3 based on his volume, with consistent passing game scripts that will keep him involved late into games. He is even higher in full-PPR.

I worry for the Bengals' passcatchers this week, especially Ja'Marr Chase, who will draw Broncos' CB Patrick Surtain most often. While you can't put him on your bench, temper expectations.

 

Quarterback Rankings – Fantasy Football Week 4

Rank Name Team Opp
1 Josh Allen BUF vs NO
2 Lamar Jackson BAL @ KC
3 Jalen Hurts PHI @ TB
4 Justin Herbert LAC @ NYG
5 Drake Maye NE vs CAR
6 Caleb Williams CHI @ LV
7 Patrick Mahomes II KC vs BAL
8 Bo Nix DEN vs CIN
9 Jordan Love GB @ DAL
10 Geno Smith LV vs CHI
11 Kyler Murray ARI vs SEA
12 Brock Purdy SF vs JAC
13 Daniel Jones IND @ LAR
14 Jared Goff DET vs CLE
15 Matthew Stafford LAR vs IND
16 Baker Mayfield TB vs PHI
17 C.J. Stroud HOU vs TEN
18 Tua Tagovailoa MIA vs NYJ
19 Dak Prescott DAL vs GB
20 Sam Darnold SEA @ ARI
21 Jaxson Dart NYG vs LAC
22 Trevor Lawrence JAC @ SF
23 Michael Penix Jr. ATL vs WAS
24 Marcus Mariota WAS @ ATL
25 Carson Wentz MIN @ PIT

Drake Maye and Caleb Williams are smash starts this week for similar reasons - scrambling quarterbacks that provide a healthy floor and pass-happy offenses that offer multiple touchdowns and high ceilings.

Jordan Love could be in for a big game against a soft Dallas pass defense that has the worst DVOA in the NFL.

Brock Purdy is a sit for me this week against a stingy Jaguars pass defense that ranks fourth-best by DVOA.

 

Tight End Rankings – Fantasy Football Week 4

Rank Name Team Opp
1 Trey McBride ARI vs SEA
2 Brock Bowers LV vs CHI
3 Tucker Kraft GB @ DAL
4 Jake Ferguson DAL vs GB
5 Tyler Warren IND @ LAR
6 Sam LaPorta DET vs CLE
7 Hunter Henry NE vs CAR
8 Travis Kelce KC vs BAL
9 Dalton Kincaid BUF vs NO
10 T.J. Hockenson MIN @ PIT
11 Juwan Johnson NO @ BUF
12 Kyle Pitts Sr. ATL vs WAS
13 Zach Ertz WAS @ ATL
14 Mark Andrews BAL @ KC
15 David Njoku CLE @ DET
16 Dallas Goedert PHI @ TB
17 Harold Fannin Jr. CLE @ DET
18 Brenton Strange JAC @ SF
19 Jonnu Smith PIT vs MIN
20 Dalton Schultz HOU vs TEN
21 Chig Okonkwo TEN @ HOU
22 Cade Otton TB vs PHI
23 Jake Tonges SF vs JAC
24 Pat Freiermuth PIT vs MIN
25 Mason Taylor NYJ @ MIA

Jake Ferguson is a must-start this week. He has seen 26 targets over his last two games and has an opportunity to raise his red zone presence this week with Ceedee Lamb nursing an ankle injury. The last time Ferguson played against the Packers, he scored three touchdowns.

Hunter Henry is a strong start this week, coming off a two-touchdown performance last week against the Steelers. He and Drake Maye will look to keep the connection going on Sunday against a Panthers team that has given up the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends.

Kyle Pitts Jr. has seen healthy involvement in the offense with Michael Penix Jr. under center, tallying 19 targets over his first three weeks.  He is a start this week as the offense develops. The Commanders give up the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing TEs.
