10 WR sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 4

6. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 4: Isaiah McKenzie, Buffalo Bills
Rostered: 19.0%
In Week 3, McKenzie had a big game posting seven receptions for 76 yards and a touchdown. McKenzie took on a larger role, as Gabe Davis was playing through an ankle injury. Davis’s ankle appears to be still affecting him, as he did not participate in Thursday’s practice.
McKenzie has astronomical upside this week against the Baltimore Ravens. The game should be a shootout, and the Ravens defense has allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers this season.
Nevertheless, there is some risk here. Davis sat out of the Bills’ Week 2 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, and McKenzie recorded only two receptions for 37 yards.
5. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 4: Jarvis Landry, New Orleans Saints
Rostered: 52.5%
Michael Thomas has been ruled for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings. As a result, Chris Olave and Jarvis Landry are expected to serve as the Saints’ top two wide receivers.
It should be noted that Landry is dealing with an ankle injury, but he did participate in Thursday’s practice.
Andy Dalton will start at quarterback for the Saints, but it might not hamper Landry’s fantasy value. Last season, Dalton faced the Vikings as a member of the Chicago Bears, and he threw for 325 yards.
Landry’s injury status should be monitored, but if he plays, he should receive a significant amount of targets.
