These are four key findings that will help you win your week four fantasy football matchup starting with the pick up and play of the week.

And that’s the Arizona Cardinals second year receiver Michael Wilson Wilson just had a career best performance in week three, catching eight of nine targets for 64 yards.

And he’s currently benefiting from playing across from Marvin Harrison Jr who is soaking up a lot of defensive attention.

That wasn’t the case last year when Wilson was playing across from guys like Ron Elmore and Greg Dorsch in his rookie season and entering week four, Wilson will face the commanders who allow the second most passing yards per game.

You can start this week.

Finding number two is the best spot of the week and that’s for the rookie receiver Roma against the Los Angeles Rams secondary.

Oz is coming off of a breakout performance where he had over 100 yards in a touchdown in week three and maybe more impressively, he led the team with 11 targets ahead of DJ Moore and six of those targets were at least 20 plus yards downfield that’s going to lead to big plays and in week four, he’ll get that matchup against the Rams who allow the most passing yards per play.

Nine passing yards per play is 17% more than any other defense in the NFL.

Finding number three is the sketchy spot of the week and that’s for the Packers running back, Josh Jacobs against the Vikings.

Number one ranked run defense, Jacobs is coming off of a poor game where he only scored 5.3 fantasy points last week.

And his own backup Emanuel Wilson actually had 16 points.

So it looks even worse for Jacobs.

Now, he’s still the Packers starting running back, but you can expect him to struggle again this week because he faces the Vikings who only allow 3.6 rushing yards per play.

The fewest in the NFL finding number four is the sleeper of the week and that’s going to be Xavier Legget.

The Panthers first round rookie receiver Leggett should see a larger role entering week because wide receiver Adam Thon injured his hamstring last week and is now on IR and will miss at least four games.

And when Thon left in week three, Leggette was his primary replacement and ended that game with 42 receiving yards on three targets from Andy Dalton and just for a little background.

This is a first round receiver who’s 220 pounds runs a 439, 40 time.

So he’s extremely fast.

Big.

That’s the type of guy who can win downfield.

These have been four key findings that will help you win your week four fantasy football matchup as always.

Now, all you gotta do is take this information, put it in your brain and smack around your competition with it.
