There’s plenty of fantasy football on tap this weekend as the NFL gets an early start with a game across the pond at 9:30 AM ET as the Jets and Dolphins meet in London.  As you enjoy your early morning football, make sure to get your rosters set up for seven 1:00 ET starts and the four late afternoon contests.  Whether you’re playing a weekly league on DraftKings or FanDuel or competing in your season-long league, getting the right week 4 sleepers is key to your fantasy football success today.  To help you find some of the options that have the potential to produce, check out my favorite week 4 sleepers on the following slides.

More from Buffalo Bills

Earlier this week, I posted my full lineup for DraftKings and FanDuel highlighting the matchups I like the most for this week and giving you my full lineups for each site. In this weekly Sunday morning post, rather than highlight stars who will cost you a chunk of your salary, I focus on players who are much less expensive options who I think will out-perform their pay grade.

If you’re looking for a last-minute addition to your season-long fantasy team, some of these players are on the waiver wire and have the potential to out-perform expectations this week based on matchup, opportunity, and their current form. They all represent risk of some kind, but I think it’s risk that will pay off this week.

One of the reason you may be looking for a last-minute addition this morning is that week 4 is the first week of the NFL bye week schedule.  The Patriots and Titans are taking the week off meaning that Tom Brady’s revenge tour and the Marcus Mariota breakout season get a week off. The Lions, Saints, and Bears are still in search of their first win of the season while the Packers, Panthers, Falcons, Cardinals, Bengals, and Broncos will look to stay undefeated and move to 4-0.

On each of the next few slides, you can find some of my favorite value plays for week 4.  I’ve broken my picks down by position and included the salary of the player on both DraftKings and FanDuel. None of these players are in the top tier at their position, but I think they’ll out-perform their price this week. At the bottom of each slide I’ve also included the players I selected at the position last week. Obviously these week 4 sleepers have risk, but I think they’ll deliver.
