Fantasy Football, Week 4: Best lineup with sit/start advice
By Dylan Broady
Wide receiver – Odell Beckham Jr.
Odell Beckham Jr has been one of the most polarizing players in recent history. Since his rookie season even though he was injured for most of the 2017 campaign Beckham has a grand total of 4,695 receiving yards, 38 touchdowns and three straight seasons of 90 or more receptions. He was well on his way to another great year in 2017 before succumbing to injury. Why is all this important?
OBJ in week four is going up against the 31st ranked Saints defense. New Orleans has allowed a whopping 421 total yards a game. 336.7 passing yards and 34.3 points a game. Beckham is in line for a huge game but has yet to find the end zone, OBJ will do just that against the Saints in week four.
Through three games this season Beckham has a total of 24 receptions, 271 yards receiving. OBJ has already faced an elite challenge in Jacksonville week one and had 11 receptions for 111 receiving yards. Week 3 against Houston, OBJ had nine receptions for a total of 109 yards receiving. He is due for a monster game.
The New York football Giants employ a very talented offense. With the emergence of rookie running back Saquon Barkley and fellow receiver Sterling Shepard who will take the attention off of Beckham more often, the Giants can exploit the Saints weak secondary in Week 4, giving all who own Beckham in fantasy football a great matchup to look forward to.
Projection: 15 receptions, 130 yards receiving, 2 touchdowns.
