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.

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.

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

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.
