The quarterback change in Carolina worked wonders for Johnson in Week 3 at Las Vegas, and it should be a sign of things to come. Andy Dalton, replacing Bryce Young, helped Johnson play like an elite receiver against the Raiders with eight catches for 122 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets. He's going to continue being a target hog with Adam Thielen (hamstring) on injured reserve, and the Bengals have allowed the opposing No. 1 receiver to score at least 18.5 PPR points in each of the past two games with Rashee Rice and Terry McLaurin. Johnson should be considered a quality starter in all leagues in Week 4.

Diggs is coming off a strong game in Minnesota in Week 3 with 10 catches for 94 yards on 12 targets, and he should benefit if Tank Dell (ribs) can't play this week. Diggs has scored at least 19.9 PPR points in two of three games this year, and he's showing plenty of signs of life with his new team. This week, he's facing a Jaguars defense that has allowed four receivers to score at least 12.3 PPR points, so Nico Collins and Diggs should be in line for a standout outing.

Flowers didn't have to do much in Week 3 at Dallas, with Derrick Henry doing the heavy lifting, and Flowers finished with three catches for 20 yards on four targets, which was his first game this season with single digits in targets. He had 10 targets for six catches and 37 yards in Week 1 at Kansas City and 11 targets for seven catches, 91 yards, and a touchdown in Week 2 against Las Vegas. This week, Flowers should be heavily targeted again, and I would trust him as a No. 2 receiver in a potential shootout with Buffalo.

Pickens has yet to score a touchdown this season, but it feels like a big game is on the horizon. And that could happen in Week 4 against the Colts. Indianapolis has allowed four touchdowns to opposing receivers already this year, and four guys have scored at least 15.2 PPR points against this secondary. Pickens has two games this season with at least five catches, and I expect Justin Fields to help Pickens have a breakout performance in Week 4.

Smith-Njigba has one game with more than 6.9 PPR points, which was Week 2 at New England when he scored 23.7 PPR points. This could be his second big game of the season at the Lions. Detroit has allowed five receivers to score at least 12.9 PPR points this season, and I expect the Seahawks to be throwing a lot in this matchup. DK Metcalf is a must-start receiver in all leagues, and Smith-Njigba is a low-end starter in all formats as well.

Shakir made his case to be Buffalo's No. 1 receiver this season after his performance in Week 3 against Jacksonville with six catches for 72 yards and a touchdown on six targets. He has now caught all 14 of his targets this season, and he has two outings with at least 13.2 PPR points. This week, the Bills could be in a shootout with the Ravens, and Baltimore has already allowed five receivers to score at least 13.2 PPR points in three games. Shakir should be considered a borderline No. 2 receiver in all leagues.

Kirk ended his two-game slump in Week 3 at Buffalo with eight catches for 79 yards on 10 targets, and he did well against Houston last season. In two games against the Texans, Kirk had eight catches for 143 yards and a touchdown, and he scored at least 12.9 PPR points in each outing. Kirk should have the chance for another quality performance against Houston in Week 4, especially if Evan Engram (hamstring) remains out. The Texans have already allowed four receivers to score at least 12.4 PPR points this season.

Mooney had three catches for 88 yards and a touchdown on seven targets at Philadelphia in Week 2, and he followed that up with eight catches for 66 yards on eight targets against Kansas City in Week 3. He will continue to be a staple in Atlanta's offense, and Mooney should be considered a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues in Week 4 against the Saints. Three receivers in the past two games against New Orleans have scored at least 14.2 PPR points, which bodes well for Drake London and Mooney in this matchup.
|
Jeudy took a backseat to Amari Cooper in Week 3 against the Giants and finished with just four catches for 27 yards on seven targets, but prior to that, he scored at least 11.5 PPR points in each of his first two games. I like him as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in Week 4 against the Raiders, who have already allowed four receivers to score at least 13 PPR points this season.

Michael Wilson
We'll see what happens with Trey McBride (concussion) this week, but if he's out, then Wilson and potentially Greg Dortch could be viable options against Washington. Wilson just had eight catches for 64 yards on nine targets in Week 3 against Detroit, and Washington is No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers. Dortch hasn't done much since Week 1, when he had six catches for 47 yards on eight targets at Buffalo, but he could be an option in deeper PPR leagues if McBride is out.

Here's what Denver cornerback Patrick Surtain has done so far against opposing No. 1 receivers. In Week 1, he held DK Metcalf to three catches for 29 yards on four targets. In Week 2, George Pickens had two catches for 29 yards on four targets. In Week 3, Surtain held Mike Evans to two catches for 17 yards on three targets. Now, it's Wilson's turn to face Surtain. I would only start Wilson in three-receiver leagues in Week 4.
