Fantasy Football 2018: Waiver wire targets for Week 4

Heading into Week 4 of the 2018 NFL season, who should you target on the waiver wire to help your fantasy football team?

Week 4 of the 2018 NFL season is upon us, which can only mean one thing for those who play fantasy football: Bye weeks are upon us. Oh yes, those dreaded off weeks that make setting lineups that much more complicated.

With bye weeks starting from now until Week 12, the additions of waiver-wire players have that much more importance. The puzzle pieces to your lineup will begin to move around, as your star players will eventually need to take a week off in both the real football world, and on your fantasy team.

There are only two teams on bye this week: The Carolina Panthers and Washington Redskins. For you Cam Newton, Christian McCaffery and Jordan Reed owners, now is the time to play scavenger on the wire in order to find a replacement. That also goes for owners with players on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or the Chicago Bears, as their bye weeks come on the following week. In fantasy football, there’s no such thing as planning too far ahead.

So, who should you target on the waivers this week?

In this week’s edition, you will find a handful of rookies that are finally showing what they’re capable of, veterans reclaiming old magic, and everything in-between. Take advantage of the waivers while you’re in position to do so.
