The Yahoo Fantasy crew has full confidence in these gamers delivering a memorable efficiency in your fantasy soccer lineups for Week 4.
Hearth up Mike Evans
The Mike Evans bounceback week is right here! Week 3 was tough with simply two receptions on three targets for 17 yards. The end result was anticipated. Patrick Surtain II removes fantasy upside from even essentially the most elite receivers. Nonetheless, following a quiet Week 2 of three catches and just one large sport in Week 1 versus a weak Washington protection, it’s straightforward to be involved. That concern is just bolstered by the truth that Chris Godwin has been the total WR3 in half-PPR.
This week, Evans faces an Eagles protection that has been torched via the air by Chris Olave, Drake London and Darnell Mooney, Jayden Reed and even Christian Watson. Anticipate Evans to capitalize on this matchup for a return to a top-12 receiver. That is his get-right sport. — Tera Roberts
Are you prepared on your Tee [Higgins] time?
Higgins returned in Week 3 from a hamstring harm. There have been some issues that he’d be restricted getting back from this harm, however he wasn’t. Higgins performed 90% of the snaps and this led to a six-target efficiency for 39 scoreless yards. The efficiency wasn’t nice, however the utilization was the encouraging half as a result of Ja’Marr Chase gained’t hog all of the manufacturing each week like he did in Week 3 producing 118 yards and two touchdowns.
This week Higgins will tackle the Panthers. Carolina permits the eighth most passing yards per play this season in accordance with NFL Professional. Begin Higgins this week in what might be a high-scoring sport. — Sal Vetri
You’ll be able to’t afford to take a seat Tony Pollard
If you happen to wrote off Tony Pollard final season you won’t need to hear this, however he’s wanting kinda frisky. He’s dominated the snaps and touches in Tennessee’s backfield, so Tyjae Spears hasn’t been far more than an annoyance.
This week, Pollard will get a Miami protection that’s allowed 4.5 YPC to opposing rushers and the second-most fantasy factors to opposing backs. The Titans needs to be planning to reduce their very own quarterback, too. Pollard is about up for a monster week. You’ll be able to’t sit him. — Andy Behrens
The Justin Fields breakout is upon us
Justin Fields hasn’t exploded in fantasy but, however he’s enjoying properly sufficient to maintain the beginning job, and massive dashing video games are coming. Quantity has been a difficulty for Fields, however Colts opponents are averaging 25.7 extra performs per sport this season.
Fields was a top-four fantasy QB throughout 5 weeks final season, and he solely began and completed 12 video games. There’s actual fantasy upside right here as soon as Pittsburgh’s protection ultimately permits greater than 10 factors in a sport. Fields has averaged essentially the most scrambles per sport since 2020, and he’s traditionally carried out significantly better towards zone defenses, which the Colts have used on the league’s fifth-highest fee. I’ve Fields as a top-eight QB this week.— Dalton Del Don
Diontae Johnson builds on a monster Week 3
Diontae Johnson is again in our lives with authority, coming off a career-high 122 yards towards the Raiders. Nothing about what occurred final week was a fluke. The Panthers’ passing ideas are well-designed, the offensive line blocked issues up properly towards an important Raiders defensive position, and Johnson is clearly a proficient receiver. Andy Dalton merely executed an offense with good bones and received the ball constantly to his finest receiver who’s constantly open. Johnson has a 27.7% goal share on the season and now the Panthers will likely be with out Adam Thielen.
Youthful gamers like Jonathan Mingo or Xavier Legette will see extra alternative however this is also a second that simply pushes extra quantity to the No. 1 goal. Carolina will tackle a Bengals protection that may’t strain the passer and ranks twenty ninth in dropback success fee allowed. There are a lot of big-name receivers I’ll have ranked behind Johnson this week and maybe going ahead, so long as Dalton is underneath middle. — Matt Harmon
Presenting, your D/ST streamer of the week
I understand the Raiders protection has not performed properly and it was simply sliced up by Andy Dalton. It would not matter. Now that Bryce Younger is now not beginning, Deshaun Watson is the worst quarterback within the league. Whilst Watson’s passing was just a little bit higher final week, that was mitigated by absorbing eight sacks. If you happen to play in a Superflex format, it may be time to take a position stash with Jameis Winston.
Antonio Pierce put his whole Las Vegas roster on alert after final week’s embarrassment, and I anticipate and emotional and focus-driven rebound. If you do not have an automated D/ST play, I am going to approve your one-week Raiders rental. Viva Las Vegas. — Scott Pianowski
