Fantasy Football Free Agent Pickups for Week 4 #

This weekly rundown provides the best fantasy football free agents to add and potentially start after the waiver wire run has been completed. These pickups weren’t claimed earlier in the week and are still available in many leagues. The analysis leans towards PPR formats.

Top Pickups #

Roschon Johnson, RB, Chicago Bears #

D’Andre Swift has struggled in his first three games with the Bears, averaging only 1.8 yards per carry. Johnson could see an elevated role in a good matchup against the Rams, who rank 24th in fantasy points per game (FPPG) allowed to RBs. At 225 pounds, Johnson can be effective in short-yardage situations and has shown potential on third downs. Consider him as a possible flex option for Week 4.

Rondale Wilson, WR, Arizona Cardinals #

The Washington-Arizona matchup has high-scoring potential, with the Commanders allowing the most FPPG to WRs. Wilson is emerging as a productive No. 2 WR for the Cardinals, catching eight of nine targets for 64 yards last week. He’s a solid pickup for the upcoming game.

Jahan Dotson, WR, Philadelphia Eagles #

Dotson may function as a top WR for the Eagles this week due to injury issues at the position. While his production has been limited so far this season, the opportunity could lead to WR3/Flex appeal. However, keep in mind that the Eagles have a Week 5 bye.

Tutu Atwell, WR, Los Angeles Rams #

Atwell appears to be the only Rams WR worthy of fantasy lineup consideration right now. He finished with 93 receiving yards on four receptions in Week 3 and has shown consistent production when given opportunities.

Justice Hill, RB, Baltimore Ravens #

As the preferred passing-down back for the Ravens, Hill might see increased reps in a potentially high-scoring matchup against Buffalo. He’s played on 54 percent of the snaps in each of the first two games.

Additional Considerations #

  • Taysom Hill, TE/QB, New Orleans Saints
  • Allen Lazard, WR, New York Jets
  • Tyler Conklin, TE, New York Jets
  • Andy Dalton, QB, Carolina Panthers
  • Ihmir Smith-Marsette, WR, Carolina Panthers
  • Noah Fant, TE, Seattle Seahawks
  • Dyami Brown, WR, Washington Commanders
  • Cordarrelle Patterson, RB, Atlanta Falcons

Watch List #

  • Tyler Badie, RB, Denver Broncos
  • Calvin Austin III, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers

Remember to consider matchups, team situations, and potential roles when making your fantasy football decisions.
