Fantasy football picks: Week 4 FanDuel GPP breakdown

Dalvin Cook – A match-up with the stingy Bears defense on the road smells like some greatly reduced ownership on the future rushing leader. Cook is so good that he racked up 110 rushing yards, a touchdown, and four catches for 33 yards all in just three-quarters last week.

He had a 67% snap count and has been dominating defenses week in and week out. I am not concerned with the Bears defense, this game will be slower paced, and Cook has faced good rushing defenses this year, and it made no difference in his performance.

Josh Jacobs – After an amazing debut, the highly touted rookie has seen a greatly reduced workload, and two sub-par performances as a result. He went from 23 carries all the way to 12, then ten last week. With only a 53% snap count on the year, loosing carries to Jalen Richard, which is mind-boggling when you consider how talented Jacobs is. A game against the Indy rushing defense might be what he needs to get back on track.

Marlon Mack – On the flip-side of this game, we have Mack who has been quite the workhorse for the Colts. His worst game came against the tough rushing defense of Tennessee, but he had great games against Atlanta and LA. If he gets his usual 20 carries per game, he should have no problem against this weak Raiders defense, who was been beaten on the ground all year long.
