Jamey Eisenberg's Week 4 Fantasy Football Sleepers: Addison, Stroud, Williams, Waller

Justin Jefferson (ankle) is out for Week 4 against Miami, which puts Jordan Addison in a great spot. He's one of my favorite sleepers for this week. Addison stepped up when Jefferson was injured in Week 3 at Tampa Bay with five catches for 90 yards and a touchdown on nine targets, and he should get plenty of opportunities against the Dolphins. Addison is worth starting in all two-receiver leagues and is a must-start option in all three-receiver leagues. Addison played seven games without Jefferson in 2023, and Addison averaged 14.7 PPR points over that span. A lot has changed for the Vikings since then, but Addison should thrive as the No. 1 receiver in Minnesota. The Dolphins have only allowed one touchdown to a receiver this season, and Rashee Rice in Week 3 is the lone receiver to score more than 12 PPR points. That said, I'm confident in Addison against this secondary, and Addison should be great with Jefferson out.

Darnold looked great in Week 3 at Washington with 379 passing yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions, and he scored 35.7 Fantasy points. Seattle has now produced seven passing touchdowns with Darnold in Week 3 and Drew Lock in Week 2, and the passing game might have to carry the Seahawks, with the run game struggling. It won't be easy for Darnold this week against the Chargers, who have allowed just one quarterback to score more than 20 Fantasy points, but I like him as a low-end starter in all one-quarterback leagues.

Nico Collins (hamstring) is back for Week 4 against Dallas, and that's clearly a big plus for Stroud against the Cowboys, who are No. 3 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks. Jaxson Dart, Marcus Mariota and Lamar Jackson all scored at least 24.4 Fantasy points against Dallas, and Stroud should be considered a low-end starter in deep, one-quarterback leagues. Stroud had 274 passing yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 1 against Buffalo in his lone game with Collins this season, and Houston has struggled to run the ball this year. Stroud could also be chasing points, which is a plus against the Cowboys' defense.

I have no faith in Green Bay's run game right now, and Love has scored at least 22.5 Fantasy points in two of three games heading into Week 4 at Tampa Bay. He has attempted at least 42 passes in both of his quality Fantasy outings, and he should be above 30 pass attempts once again. He now has 28 games in his career with at least 30 pass attempts, and he scored at least 20.4 Fantasy points in 18 of those contests. Love should be considered a low-end No. 1 Fantasy quarterback in all leagues against the Buccaneers.

Jayden Daniels (elbow) is out, which means Mariota will start in Week 4 against the Colts in London, and this is a great matchup. Mariota just scored 26.4 Fantasy points in Week 3 against Seattle, and he has now scored at least 20 Fantasy points in five of his past nine starts for the Commanders, going back to last season. Indianapolis has allowed two of three quarterbacks this season to score at least 26.9 Fantasy points, and Mariota should be considered a low-end No. 1 Fantasy quarterback in all leagues.

Brissett is coming off his best game of the season in Week 3 at San Francisco with 29.6 Fantasy points, and I like him as a low-end starter in all leagues in Week 4 at the Giants. Brian Burns (knee) is out for the season, and the Giants should have trouble putting pressure on Brissett. Dak Prescott and Matthew Stafford each scored at least 18.4 Fantasy points against the Giants, and Brissett should be in that range in Week 4. He has scored at least 18.5 Fantasy points in 13 of his past 15 games, going back to last season. Sleeper RBs

Jadarian Price (chest) is out for Week 4 against the Chargers, which means Wilson should start for Seattle. He's worth using as a flex option in all leagues. Price injured his chest in Week 2 at Arizona, and Wilson finished the game with 21 carries for 92 yards and no catches on one target. He's not going to have a big role in the passing game, and he should share touches with George Holani. But Wilson should get the majority of work, and the Chargers have allowed all three starting running backs they've faced (Jeremiyah Love, Ashton Jeanty and James Cook) to score at least 10.3 PPR points. Wilson has nine games in his career with double digits in carries, and he has scored at least 11.7 PPR points in six of those outings.

Rachaad White (shoulder) is out for Week 4 against the Colts in London, which is great news for Croskey-Merritt. We'll see what happens with Austin Ekeler, but Croskey-Merritt should lead Washington in touches. He has struggled in the past two games against Dallas and Seattle, with a combined 31 carries for 79 yards and no touchdowns and two catches for 12 yards on two targets. He will likely need a touchdown to help you as a Fantasy asset, but maybe he'll get more work in the passing game with White out. I like Croskey-Merritt as a high-end flex against the Colts, who are No. 6 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. Indianapolis has allowed a running back to score or gain over 100 rushing yards in all three games, and hopefully, Croskey-Merritt will find the end zone in this game in London.

Stevenson has struggled in the past two games against Pittsburgh and Jacksonville, with a combined 13 carries for 65 yards and four catches for 19 yards on five targets. TreVeyon Henderson continues to share work with Stevenson, but I like Stevenson as a low-end No. 2 Fantasy running back in Week 4, with Henderson as a flex. Buffalo is No. 4 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, and three running backs this season have scored at least 13.7 PPR points against the Bills with David Montgomery, Jahmyr Gibbs and Keaton Mitchell. Stevenson averaged 12.7 PPR points against Buffalo last season, and he should be in that range again in Week 4.

This won't be an easy game for Omarion Hampton in Week 4 at Seattle, and the Chargers might give Mitchell more work. He is worth using as a flex, especially in PPR. Mitchell just had eight carries for 52 yards and three catches for minus-5 yards and a touchdown on three targets in Week 3 at Buffalo, and he played a season-high 38 percent of the snaps. The Seahawks have allowed Rhamondre Stevenson, Jeremiyah Love and Rachaad White to score at least 4.6 PPR points with just their receiving totals alone. The Chargers need to add some juice to their offense, and Mitchell can help in tandem with Hampton.

David Montgomery remains a low-end No. 2 Fantasy running back in all leagues, but Marks can be a flex option in Week 4 against Dallas. ESPN reported that Marks could start to get more work, and he has scored at least 8.5 PPR points in each of his past two games against Cincinnati and Indianapolis. I would love to see Marks more involved in the passing game, and he had five catches for 27 yards on six targets in Week 2 against Cincinnati. The Cowboys have already allowed two running backs to catch at least four passes, with Devin Singletary in Week 1 and Rachaad White in Week 2, and hopefully C.J. Stroud uses Marks as a weapon out of the backfield in Week 4. Sleeper WRs

DeVonta Smith (hamstring) won't play in Week 4 against the Rams, which puts Wicks and Makai Lemon in prominent spots for the Eagles. Wicks is worth using as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in all leagues, and Lemon is worth a flier in deeper formats. It's not an easy matchup, but the Rams have allowed four touchdowns to receivers in three games and four guys to score at least 12.4 PPR points. Wicks has scored at least 12.4 PPR points in two of three games this year, and he should lead Philadelphia in targets. Lemon is off to a rough start in his rookie campaign with only seven catches for 38 yards on nine targets in three games, but this is a big opportunity for him with Smith out.
