Fantasy Football Week 4 Start/Sit Advice

Darius Slayton (WR – NYG)

“Darius Slayton, WR, Giants: Slayton leads all Giants WRs in routes, targets, and yards. Now he gets a banged-up Seattle defense that’s allowed the most PPR points to enemy WRs.”
– Kevin English (Draft Sharks)

Brian Robinson Jr. (RB – WAS)

“Brian Robinson Jr. started the year on fire, averaging 20.5 half-point PPR fantasy points over the first two weeks. Yet, he averaged only 4.4 yards per rushing attempt and 3.03 yards after contact per rushing attempt. Furthermore, the second-year player had only 10.3% of his rushing attempts total 10 or more yards. However, everything changed last week against the Bills. Robinson got phased out of the game, playing only 37% of the snaps, as Washington had to abandon the run. Unfortunately, things aren’t better this week as he faces an Eagles run defense that has held running backs to only 2.84 yards and 0.28 fantasy points per rushing attempt this season.”
– Mike Fanelli (FantasyPros)

“The Washington Commanders are eight-point underdogs in Philadelphia this week, which doesn’t bode well for Brian Robinson Jr. Last week in a trailing game script, Antonio Gibson played 13 more snaps than Robinson, leading to his lowest carry total in a game this season with 10. Not only that, but the Eagles defensive line is Robinson’s toughest test yet. In three games, the leading rushers against Philadelphia have totaled 29 yards, 28 yards, and 38 yards. You’re basically hoping he falls into the endzone if you’re forced to start Robinson.”
– Chad Workman (Fantasy Scouts)

Rhamondre Stevenson (RB – NE)

“One player that I think will disappoint in Week 4 is Rhamondre Stevenson. Stevenson’s teammate, Ezekiel Elliott, rushed 16 times for 80 yards in Week 3. Stevenson rushed 19 times for 59 yards. Stevenson is getting the volume, but Elliott is getting the yards. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick probably prefers yards over carries, so it’s possible that this becomes a true timeshare going forward. If that’s the case, ranking Stevenson at ECR 32 feels very high to me.”
